The next batch of PlayStation Plus freebies is arriving next week and it’s a darn good haul of games, including the beloved indie blockbuster Stardew Valley.
On August 27, as is usual around the end of the month, Sony announced what next month’s free PS Plus games will be. These games are available to all tiers of PS Plus subscribers and will be available to grab and download starting September 2. All of these games can be played on PS5 or PS4. Here’s the full list:
- Psychonauts 2 – PS4
- Stardew Valley – PS4
- Viewfinder – PS4, PS5
The star of the show is likely to be Stardew Valley, which appears to have never been given away as a PlayStation Plus game before. That seems wild to me! But hey, if you have not yet played this wildly popular cozy pixel-art life sim that features RPG combat, farming, and more, now is the perfect time to give it a shot. Personally, I’m more excited that more people will get a chance to play Psychonauts 2, a fantastic 3D platformer from Double Fine that I enjoyed a lot back in 2021. I highly recommend you set some time aside to play it. Finally, there’s Viewfinder, a neat first-person puzzle game with an interesting mechanic involving taking pictures and stepping into them. If you like Portal or other similar puzzle games, check this one out, too!
Oh, and don’t wait around too much longer to grab last month’s collection of PlayStation Plus free games. Lies of P, Day Z, and My Hero One’s Justice 2 won’t be free after September 1, so add them to your game library before then if you want to play any of them in the future. Also, keep in mind that you can only play these PS Plus games if you have an active PlayStation Plus Essential, Extra, or Premium membership.
