It appears that one of the upcoming PlayStation Plus free games for May 2025 may have been leaked.
Although Sony has not officially confirmed the news, rumors circulating online suggest that Until Dawn will be available as a complimentary title for PlayStation users in May. While the promotional artwork points toward Until Dawn Remastered rather than the original 2014 release, there's still some ambiguity around which version will be offered. We'll provide clarity as soon as more details emerge.
PlayStation Plus is Sony’s subscription-based gaming service, offering members access to a variety of perks such as free monthly games, limited-time trials, online multiplayer capabilities, and exclusive discounts. Additionally, it provides a vast library of hundreds of titles—both modern and classic—for Extra and Premium tier subscribers. However, the monthly free games remain accessible to all PlayStation users, regardless of their membership level.

Unfortunately, the film didn’t make a strong impression—it received a 5/10 from IGN, with critics noting that it “leaves all the promise of the horror game behind for a jumble of horror-movie re-creations.”
This score mirrors our rating of the 2024 remaster, which we described as an "overpriced and under-featured remake," likening it more to "daylight robbery" than a compelling experience, according to IGN's Until Dawn Remastered review. In contrast, Supermassive’s original 2015 version earned a more favorable 7.5/10 from us.Next month, 22 titles are expected to leave the PlayStation Plus collection, including Grand Theft Auto 5, Payday 2: Crimewave Edition, and the final playable versions of the first-party games Resistance: Fall of Man and Resistance 2. Following their removal, these Resistance titles will no longer be playable on modern consoles.
