May 2025 PS Plus Game Linked to Hollywood Movie

If rumors hold true, a fan-favorite title could soon join the lineup of PlayStation Plus free games for May 2025. While Sony has yet to officially announce the lineup, reports suggest that the teen slasher horror romp Until Dawn may be making its way to players. The artwork shared seems to indicate it's the remastered version of the game rather than the original 2014 release, though details remain unconfirmed. We’ll update as soon as more information becomes available.

For those unfamiliar, PlayStation Plus offers a range of features, including monthly free games accessible to all subscribers, regardless of tier. Additionally, Extra and Premium members enjoy access to a vast library of hundreds of current and classic titles.

The rumored addition has sparked conversation within the PlayStation community, particularly on Reddit. Some speculate this move might coincide with the recent release of the Until Dawn movie, which, while intriguing, received mixed reviews. IGN scored it 5/10, noting it lacked the promise of the original game. Similarly, the 2024 remaster garnered a lukewarm reception, earning another 5/10 from IGN, with critics pointing out its lackluster improvements over the original.

On the other hand, the critically acclaimed 2015 original received a 7.5/10 from IGN, highlighting its standout moments despite some shortcomings.

In related news, 22 games are set to exit the PlayStation Plus library next month, including high-profile titles such as Grand Theft Auto 5, Payday 2: Crimewave Edition, and the final versions of Resistance: Fall of Man and Resistance 2. As a result, these classics will no longer be available on modern PlayStation consoles.
