Prepare to destroy some aliens — Galaga Legions DX can be downloaded for free with Instant Game Collection access this week. This arcade classic shoot-‘em-up pits you against waves of aliens called Galaga, but they’re basically space bees (“NOOOOOO! NOT THE BEES!!!!”). PS Vita Summer Select is ending this week with Dragon Fantasy Book II, the sequel to, you guessed it, Dragon Fantasy Book I. Finally, there’s a ton of Call of Duty content on sale, including Modern Ware & Black Ops bundles, so check it out.
These PS Plus benefits will be available after the PlayStation Store updates tomorrow, 9/10.

You’ll also find other topics you can contribute your thoughts to, or start one for yourself.
not interested at all in the free game and the CoD games still seem overpriced with those discounts.
Can we please get that awesome ‘Big in Japan’ sale EU got last week? It was like half off on almost 60 different japanese games.
Cool discounts and while Galaga isn’t exactly AAA it is fun and I look forward to the update tomorrow ^^
Have fun shooting space bees!
Another horrible week of PlayStation plus
hopefully next month is better
Nothing for me this week
Not a great week for sale but maybe to some.
lol love the wickerman reference in the article though. XD
Glad you enjoyed it. That clip gets me every time. :D
Not the greatest update…not really interested in the free game or the discounts. But we’ve had some pretty great weeks in the past, and there are some pretty good games coming in the next few weeks, so I’ll let it slide!
Wasn’t Rayman Legends supposed to be free on Vita for PS+?
Rayman Origins is coming to the IGC for PS Vita later this month. :)
Pretty excited for Dragon Fantasy Book II :D
Also, omg Aliens Colonial Marines! … said no one ever.
Weak week………. Just waiting Ico this month…. Hope october will be better…. Eu update always better than yours…..
CRAP
The Call of Duty discounts aren’t even retail and the discount on Aliens hints that we will get it for free in future updates if it’s that low of a price
Blah… Blah… Blah…
$8.99 For Aliens colonial marines …. I don’t know if it actually worth that much.
Well if you guys are disappointed in this PS+ week, you’ll be disappointed for the rest of the month. The entire month was a disappointment. But actually i appreciate you dropping Aliens under $10, i may actually try it for $9. Yes it might be a terrible game, but for $9 and a coop game ill try it. I’ve spent my money on much worse from the PSN store (God Mode).
I’m hitting the “Don’t own but no content for me” button way too much.
Sorry to hear that, but thank you for continuing to leave feedback!
Wow, that Call of Duty sale is so weak (why even bother?)! I’m glad I don’t play that crap anymore. Keep in mind for future PS+ updates, no more PSP games! No more fighting games! No more RPGs! Please offer a PS+ Discount Day 1 for Killzone Mercenary, tomorrow. Thanks.
When will North America get real aaa titles every time I Renew my plus is when something good is out but after that the months start to suck! :(
I was hoping for Ico this week. But it’s ok. At least I’ll get Kingdom Hearts 1.5 this week. :D
@16 I would be okay with PSP games if they were more hit titles that are no longer selling much. However they need to make Kingdom Hearts playable on the Vita. I know it’s a longshot like Spyro and Crash…
Also, will the Call of Duty games have discounts on the dlc content themselves? I might get some DLC for Black Ops and MW3 if there are discounts just for them.
Hey Kristine, any idea or news if we can possibly expect a Halloween sale next month as we did last year? I know its still a month away but just curious if we may see one on some themed games like Dead Space series, Resident Evil, etc.
Unfortunately I can’t confirm or deny since I’m not sure.
@David2Crazy
That would be Rayman Origins.. and if it sticks to format, will be the last week of September.
Giving away a retail game as big as Rayman the month that it’s released is a terrible idea. O_o
Holy damn, I agree with Ryumaou on that “Big in Japan” sale. I would weep, knowing I’d have to pick-&-choose from so many titles I’ actually interested in, unlike either of the properties in this week’s Plus discounts. At least Galaga’s pretty, but those bees would run from me, “well” as I’d be able to play it.
where is rayman????????????????
As I said above, it’s coming later this month. When we preview the month’s IGC, we do not list them in order of appearance.
@Zionine
I meant Origins obviously lol.
The Vita games are ALWAYS the last week of the month, you guys should know this by now. I’m extremely excited for Dragon Fantasy Book II personally. I didn’t even realize it was coming out this week.
The Call of Duty discounts are terrible.. I’m sorry but these discounts are horrible these past couple of weeks. You guys would normally do better than AT LEAST this.
The free game, I’m actually happy about. It may not be an AAA PS3 title which is unfair compared to Europe’s selection, but it is a very fun game. The classic game remade in HD, I cannot wait to play.
galga legions would be much better on vita.would look great on the oled screen.
this is a poor week, but i still have a back log of games i have not played from PS plus so im good to go. for the price i think PS+ over delivers so lame weeks are part of the deal. ico is coming soon so is all good
I’ll give Galaga Legions another shot, I remember not being too hot on the demo when it first came out, but you can’t argue with free.
Now Dragon Fantasy Book II, that’s where it’s at for me. I’m probably the only person out there where it’s the game I’m looking forward to most in September.
Only interested in Dragon Fantasy and the free game. Pass on the rest.
Ya you’re going to have to offer Aliens Colonial Marines for free before I’ll take a download lol.
@15 – Me too, man. So sad. In the past 8-12 weeks I’ve only selected Hitman & the second portion of the Summer sale (& I’m not the type to select that out of spite). I was the biggest unpaid cheerleader for Plus in the Winter & Spring months. I’m responsible for at least 3 new subscribers. Plus took a sharp downward turn.
wait I just realized I will have to renew plus before Liberty City Stories leave Playstation Plus. I just may buy a VitaTV now.
Yeah I’m pretty excited about PS Vita TV too! Looking forward to learning more on it, but watching the livestream late last night it made me sit up and go ‘whahhhhhaaaa?’
Every week is worse than one before. I bought 5 Call of Duty games on Craig List for $30. You have to be an idiot to buy something at these “discounted” prices Free game I don’t want to sven comment. I ber next month free PS3 will be Pacman or Donkey Kong. Goodbye PS XBox here I come
@32 I honestly would not even want it as a free download for Plus. lol The game is awful, would rather have pretty much anything else.
It’s worse and worse, nothing interesting for months; if there were no instant game for plus, please add more games’ discount;
Anyway, I have to looking fwd next week, it’s a pity;
I don’t think US plus is worse than HK’s(no offending)
HA! Aliens: Colonial Marines is already just $8.99, even though it just came out this year. Supposed to be a disaster. Looking forward to Galaga though. Meanwhile, we’re still having a grand ole’ time on our PS-Focused video game Podcast, where we steal something from another show each week: Big Red Barrelcast vs. Go For Rainbow iTunes: tinyurl.com/GoForRainbow Direct: tinyurl.com/GFRDirect
That COD sale is just awful… I guess those games are still selling but why bother with $5 discounts? Activision has no shame.
FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU. I didn’t buy Dragon Fantasy: Book I two weeks ago because I didn’t want to play a game knowing that part II was out, but kind of out of my reach at that time (had to pay rent and credit card). Damn you, guys. Why? Next time let us know!
A little confused by this, but were you unaware of the PS Vita Summer Select sale, is that what you’re saying? We announced in August (https://blog.playstation.com/2013/08/19/ps-vita-summer-select-four-new-indies-get-ps-plus-discounts/) :( Sorry that you missed the post.
BTW, Aliens was 5 bucks last week on Steam.
You mean I can get Call Of Duty: Black Ops Complete for only $75 instead of $83? Thanks NA Plus team!
Even free would not get me to use the disc space for Aliens. LOL.
I would love to see Catherine or Jak & Daxter Collection make it to the US PS+ IGC.
Hello Kristine,
Do you know if Killzone Mercenary will be released at 12AM on the PS Store?
It will likely be published at the regular PS Store update time during the day.
And will we get any feedback this week? The replies are getting less & less, too. Is Sony defunding Plus or something?
When is ICO going to be free for PS+? I had hopped ICO would of been free last week but instead we got Resident Evil so then this week I was hopping ICO would be the free game but Galaga Legions DX (which is the only other free PS+ game I’m interested in besides ICO) hopefully next week you can make ICO the free game.
Well there’s only two more weeks, so soon! :) We mix up the order of the games in the preview post, so don’t look at that and think that’s how they’ll be released.
This Galaga’s pretty fun. Maybe it’s no Resogun or Galak-Z, but it’s free. I don’t understand all this PS+ hate. The free games for this month had already been disclosed…
And the whining continues. Getting sick of seeing these disappointment posts, and the amount seems to get larger each week. We need to remind ourselves that we get great or at least decent games at just over $4 a month. If you still can’t fathom that, then maybe you should just cancel your subscription. Personally, thanks Sony, for an awesome service so far.
It seems like each another update is just worse. Good job sony. Where’s unsubscribe PS+ button?
July and AUG NA plus Dokuro/machinarium/dark stalker/metal slag…. VS EU’s plus July and AUG Ninja Gaiden/Unit 13/Lego Lord of the Ring/When Viking attack…
This month’s PLUS
NA Sept Rayman Origin (sold 7$ last 2 week ago)/GTA psp…. VS EU Sept update New Little King Story/ Urban Trial Free Style..
It’s like 1 retail vita title in US vs 5 retail vita titles from July to Sept.
Wow nice LINE U.S.! Keep up the good work in losing customers..
