It appears that one of the PlayStation Plus games for May 2025 may have been leaked. While Sony has yet to confirm this, rumors are circulating that the teen slasher horror game, Until Dawn, will be available as a free download for PlayStation players. The promotional art hints at the possibility of it being the Until Dawn Remastered version, rather than the original 2014 release, though this remains unconfirmed until official news is released.

PlayStation Plus is an online gaming service that offers a range of benefits to its subscribers, including free monthly games, limited-time trials, online multiplayer, and exclusive discounts. The service also provides Extra and Premium members with access to a vast catalog of current and classic games, while the monthly free games are accessible to all subscribers, regardless of their tier.

Speculation from the PlayStation community on Reddit, as noted by PushSquare, suggests that this move could be a promotional effort tied to the recent release of the Until Dawn movie, which hit theaters just before the weekend. However, the movie did not meet expectations, receiving a 5/10 rating from IGN, with the 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."

The 2024 remaster of Until Dawn also received a lukewarm response, earning a 5/10 score from IGN, with the review criticizing it 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 was better received, achieving a 7.5/10 rating.

In other news, 22 games are scheduled to be removed from the PlayStation Plus library next month, including popular titles such as Grand Theft Auto 5, Payday 2: Crimewave Edition, and the last playable versions of first-party titles Resistance: Fall of Man and Resistance 2. This removal means that Resistance: Fall of Man and Resistance 2 will no longer be accessible on modern consoles.
