A recently added free game for PlayStation Plus is receiving a lot of praise, with many calling it the best-looking free game ever offered with the service. This high-quality game is now available at no extra cost to all PlayStation Plus members – those with Essential, Extra, or Premium subscriptions. However, it’s only playable on the PS5, meaning PS4 subscribers won’t be able to experience it.
As a PlayStation Plus member, I was really excited to see what games were included for October, and they didn’t disappoint! We got three titles: *Alan Wake 2*, *Cocoon*, and *Goat Simulator 3*. Each one is fun in its own way, but *Cocoon* was a real standout last year – Xbox Game Pass subscribers were raving about it as a surprise hit in 2023. Honestly though, *Alan Wake 2* is the big draw here. It came out last year and was easily one of the best games of the year, and I’m discovering it really shows off what the PS5 can do graphically – the visuals are stunning!
“Insanely Realistic”
A recent popular post on the PlayStation Plus Reddit page asked if *Alan Wake 2* has the best graphics of any game currently available on PS Plus as of 2025. The poster, playing on a PS5, described the game’s graphics as incredibly realistic, even saying they sometimes looked like real life.
Look, on its own, this observation isn’t groundbreaking, but the sheer volume of agreement – both in upvotes and the comments section – really speaks volumes. Yes, *Alan Wake 2* isn’t perfect, and there’s room for critique, but let’s be real: it’s undeniably one of the most visually stunning games on the PS5. It’s a feast for the eyes.
One popular comment on the post perfectly captures how much the game showcases the leap in graphics between generations. Another user praised it as the best-looking game they’ve experienced on current consoles.

We gave the game a very positive review, especially highlighting its impressive graphics – it’s likely the best-looking free game available on PlayStation Plus. However, other PS5 games, like *Death Stranding 2: On the Beach*, still look even better.
What truly sets the graphics in *Alan Wake 2* apart isn’t just how realistic they are, but also the game’s strong artistic style, which makes it a pleasure to look at. Many PlayStation Plus subscribers recently discovered this for themselves, confirming just how impressive it is.
We’d love to hear your thoughts! Leave a comment below, or join the discussion on the ComicBook Forum. Do you think *Alan Wake 2* is the most visually stunning game on the PlayStation 5?
