Here are the free PS+ games for October 2017

Metal Gear Solid V
Metal Gear Solid V

This month is one of the biggest and best for free games on PlayStation Plus. There's a total of eight games being offered up, one of which is a highlight from 2015, perhaps the best game of the year. Not bad, especially if you already had a PS+ subscription.

If you have no idea what we're talking about - PS+ is the subscription required to play games online on a PlayStation 4. In return, on top of online multiplayer, you get access to a selection of free games each month, plus some discounts on the PlayStation Store. The highlight of each month, though, is the free games you can get - here's what you can get this month, for each PlayStation platform.
