We've reached a new month which means it is time for a new batch of PlayStation+ games. This month, those subscribed to PS+ will get three games – two PS4 titles and one PS5 game, although all three can be played on PS5 through backwards compatibility. 

First up on the list is Mafia 2 Definitive Edition, which originally released as part of a remastered Mafia trilogy. The remaster was well received but not as comprehensive of a remake as some fans had hoped for.

Next on the list is Dragonball: The Breakers, a more recent release focused on multiplayer, rather than retelling the Dragon Ball Z story. In this game, one person plays as one of the series' primary villains and is tasked with hunting down the good guys. Over the course of a game, you'll be able to power up and evolve into one of the higher forms for Frieza, Majin Buu or Cell. Survivors will be tasked with escaping and fending off the villain by collecting power keys to obtain the abilities of a key Dragon Ball hero character. These super moves can be used to hold off an attack and escape.

Finally, Aliens Fireteam Elite is also available to PS+ subscribers this month. In this game, you'll be co-oping with up to two players or AI to battle your way through four campaigns set on the planet LV-895. You can use unique perks and weapons to take on the Xenomorphs and blast through hordes.

These games will be available to all PS+ subscribers on all tiers starting on the 6th of November. Until then, you can still claim October's PS+ games, including Weird West, The Callisto Protocol and Farming Simulator 22.

KitGuru Says: This is a fairly decent set of games for the month, although I do wish the Mafia remasters would get an update for new-gen consoles for higher frame rates and resolutions.

Mafia was one of the greatest games ever made, when it was released gamers across the globe embraced its combination of rich story line with Grand Theft Auto style game elements. With the successor to be released in a few days, many predict that this game alone will help push sales of the GTX460 into the current gaming market. We can already imagine the nVidia sales team are rubbing their hands gleefully expectant.

Mafia 2 fully supports physX and when we spoke with nVidia this week they said that the PC version is going to be an incredible experience, offering so much more than the console versions. PhysX is the foundation for destructable environments which results in a highly immersive and dynamic game experience.

The physX support is sure to help push the flagging sales of the latest Fermi hardware and if the video footage is anything to go by, the game itself looks to be one of 2010's success stories.

We are sure many of you have been reading the reviews of the awesome new nVidia GTX460 graphics card, hopefully you also managed to catch our review yesterday of the eVGA Superclocked 768MB version. This is a card which is going to sell bucketloads, due to the heady combination of competitive price and first class performance.

One of the main pleasures of owning an nVidia graphics card is the physX support and we thought we would share a video of the upcoming Mafia 2 which showcases the physX elements this game is going to incorporate once it hits the PC platform in a short while.

Mafia was probably one of the finest games to ever grace the PC platform and there has been much anticipation for the follow up from the Czech division of 2K Games.

Latest news to hit is that Mafia 2 will not only feature nVidia PhysX but it will also use their APEX Clothing Module to enhance all the fancy gangster outfits. The engine is also going to feature particle systems to deliver top drawer explosions and debris within the game – with the period tommy guns, this opens up a whole new level of possible immersive environmental interaction.

The game is due for release late August/September and is sure to be one of the biggest titles this year. I personally can't wait as I was a huge fan of the original!

KitGuru says: This might be the A list game to enhance nVidia sales at the end of 2010
