PlayStation Plus Adds a Critically Underrated Racer in November Lineup

PlayStation Plus subscribers are in for a strong mix of speed, chaos, and charm this November. Sony has confirmed that EA WRC 24, Stray, and Totally Accurate Battle Simulator will headline the month’s downloadable lineup, available starting November 4. The trio will replace Alan Wake II, Cocoon, and Goat Simulator 3, which cycle out as the Halloween season winds down.

All three titles will be free to download for users on any PlayStation Plus — Essential, Extra, or Premium — on both PS4 and PS5. Players have until November 4 to grab the outgoing games before they leave the service.

The standout addition for us sports gamers is obviously EA WRC 24, a rally racing simulator that didn’t receive the attention it deserved at launch. Developed by Codemasters, the longtime masters of the Dirt and F1 series, EA WRC 24 blends authentic stage design with a deep career mode and razor-sharp handling. Its inclusion on PS Plus offers a welcome spotlight at a time when Codemasters is facing widespread layoffs, reminding players just how polished and passionate their work still is.

For anyone who has yet to play EA WRC 24 before (and owns a PlayStation console), this is a great time to get the game free of charge and experience one of the best simcade racers ever made.

Joining it is Stray, the beloved cyberpunk adventure that lets you explore a decaying neon city through the eyes (and paws) of a cat. And rounding out the trio is Totally Accurate Battle Simulator, the hilariously wobbly strategy game where ragdoll soldiers, mammoths, and club-wielding cavemen collide in glorious physics-based mayhem.

Overall, November’s PS Plus lineup covers a little bit of everything: heartfelt storytelling, creative absurdity, and high-octane realism. But it’s that underrated rally racer that might just surprise players the most. So get it on November 4!
