Sony has announced the new games that will be part of the Essential selection for PlayStation Plus in October. After the confirmation that Saints Row would be one of the featured games this month, Volition, the studio responsible for the game, has announced its closure. However, this has not stopped Sony in its quest to offer its subscribers an attractive list of games.

Instead of Saints Row, players will be able to enjoy The Callisto Protocol, Farming Simulator 22, and Weird West as the Essential games this month. These titles will be available starting from October 3rd and will replace previous games, such as Black Desert Online’s Traveler Edition and Generation Zero.

The announcement that The Callisto Protocol, one of the most anticipated games, will be part of PlayStation Plus Essential is particularly interesting. This comes just a week after Glen Schofield left Striking Distance, the studio responsible for this exciting horror game. Despite the changes in the development team, Sony has decided to keep it as one of the featured games.

In addition to The Callisto Protocol, Farming Simulator 22 and Weird West also promise to offer hours of entertainment to PlayStation Plus players. Farming Simulator 22 will allow players to become virtual farmers as they manage their own farms. On the other hand, Weird West will transport players to a fantasy western world full of mystery and discoveries.

In summary, Sony has revealed an exciting list of games for PlayStation Plus Essential in October. Although the news of Volition’s closure is unfortunate, the new games promise to captivate players with their variety of genres and adventures. PlayStation Plus subscribers will be able to enjoy The Callisto Protocol, Farming Simulator 22, and Weird West starting from October 3rd.
