It looks like one of the PlayStation Plus games for May 2025 has leaked. While nothing is officially confirmed by Sony yet, rumors suggest that the teen slasher horror game, Until Dawn, will be available as a free download for PlayStation players next month. The leaked key art hints at the possibility of it being the Until Dawn Remastered version rather than the original 2014 release, though we'll provide confirmation as soon as we have more details.
PlayStation Plus is an online gaming service for PlayStation platforms that offers a range of benefits, including free monthly games, limited-time trials, online multiplayer, and exclusive member discounts. Additionally, Extra and Premium members have access to a catalog featuring hundreds of current and classic games, while the monthly free games are available to all subscribers, regardless of their tier.
According to discussions on the PlayStation subreddit, as noted by PushSquare, this move could be a promotional strategy for the recently released Until Dawn movie. However, the movie didn't meet expectations, earning a 5/10 rating from IGN, with our review stating, "Until Dawn is more disappointing than deadly, leaving all the promise of the horror game behind for a jumble of horror-movie re-creations."
Similarly, the 2024 remaster of Until Dawn received the same 5/10 score from IGN, described as an "overpriced and under-featured remake that seems less like a must-have bit of moonlit murder and something closer to daylight robbery." In contrast, the original 2015 game by Supermassive Games was more favorably received, earning a 7.5/10 from us.
In other news, 22 games are scheduled to be removed from the PlayStation Plus library next month, including popular titles like Grand Theft Auto 5, Payday 2: Crimewave Edition, and the last playable versions of first-party titles Resistance: Fall of Man and Resistance 2. As a result, Resistance: Fall of Man and Resistance 2 will no longer be available on modern consoles.
