Don’t be alarmed — no, it’s not Monday. Although PlayStation Plus updates typically kick off the week, we’re trying something new by pulling back the curtain on our Instant Game Collection updates a little early.
For September, Resident Evil Chronicles HD Collection is leading the charge, so you can break out your PlayStation Move Controllers (yes, regular controllers work too) and start destroying zombies. Later this month you’ll get the HD-remastered version of iconic PS2 classic ICO, one of Rockstar’s awesome portable versions of Grand Theft Auto (in this case, GTA: Liberty City Stories), Ubisoft’s loveable platformer Rayman Origins for PS Vita and the classic arcade shooter Galaga Legions DX.
Remember, these games will hit the Instant Game Collection at various times throughout the month, so check back with us every Monday morning to see all the benefits of your membership.

Better than Assassin’s Creed 3.
Great lineup.
Why did IGN post this first. You guys are slipping.
Not bad. No major PS3 games but it’s a good month for Vita. Thanks for listening about the PSP games.
Double thumbs up for Resident Evil Chronicles HD Collection. Keep it up.
I think this lineup is just OK. I would love some AAA stuff like what Europe has.
Very very very excited for Ico and Rayman. I wanted to pick these up last month, but I missed it. Really glad I’m getting them here. Good job guys!
GTA: Liberty City Stories on Vita !!!!
Pretty good month.
sweet
@2 Greg got it from Kristine and Colin posted it? idk lol.
Good games this month, not a huge standout, but good games all around.
Holy crap, this might very well be the best month for PS+ members, EVER! Thank you!
I wish Galaga Legions DX was on Vita too
ah PS+, destroying our lives one free game at a time
I already own all of these games except Resident Evil. Glad the Vita is getting more love this time around. Great update for another month of Plus.
WOW, great line up. My GF loves zombies so we are going to have a blast with RE: HD Chronicles.
And my Vita is going to love Rayman! I’ve been wanting that game for so long!
Great job PS Team! These are amazing games to add to the games collection! Keep it up!
This is the best PS+ update for Vita since the November launch. I’ve already got Rayman Origins, but my brother gets to keep my physical copy now.
glad you approve!
