Hi everyone! The dog days of summer are coming up, but it’s also the perfect time to discover and play a great new game or four. Over the past six years, PlayStation Store’s PLAY campaign has brought you some incredible games, including Journey on PS4, Counter-Strike: GO, Rogue Legacy, and more. On behalf of the PlayStation Store and 1st and 3rd Party Games Teams, I’m thrilled to announce the lineup for PLAY 2016 — Headlander, ABZÛ, Brut@l, and Bound.
All four games are available for pre-order starting today, making their console-first digital debuts on PS4. To celebrate the launch of these titles, PlayStation Plus members will save 20% on pre-orders for PLAY 2016 games. As an added bonus, each game in the PLAY 2016 lineup comes with an exclusive PS4 theme when pre-ordered. But that’s not all, anyone (PS Plus member or not) who purchases two or more PLAY 2016 titles by August 23 will receive a coupon for 20% off their entire cart purchase at PlayStation Store.* For those of you bargain hunters out there, don’t worry — you can take advantage of both offers at the same time.
Let’s take a closer look at the games in PLAY 2016 lineup:
Launch Date | Title | Plus Pre-order Price | Regular Price | Pre-order Theme |

7/26/2016 | Headlander | $15.99 | $19.99 | Static |

Headlander
Adult Swim Games and acclaimed studio Double Fine team up to bring you Headlander, a ’70s-sci-fi-inspired platformer. Play as a disembodied human head that takes over bizarre robot bodies in a retro-futuristic “utopia” ruled by a deranged computer.
ABZÛ
ABZÛ is a beautiful, dreamy underwater adventure. Immerse yourself in a vibrant, hidden world that’s bursting with life but beware as you swim deeper – dangers lurk in the mysterious depths.
Brut@l
Choose your hero – Ranger, Mage, Warrior, or Amazon – then descend into a dangerous world constructed entirely from ASCII characters. Weapon crafting, potion brewing, and local 2P multiplayer will help you survive the onslaught of enemies in these unique dungeons.
Bound
Developed exclusively for PlayStation 4 by Plastic, the team behind innovative titles like Linger In Shadows and Datura, Bound is a 3D platformer that combines a unique visual style with a powerful story and gameplay mechanics infused with modern dance.
Damn it PlayStation, just put it all on my tab. Such a great selection.
The games do look good. I got some credit on my PSN from redeeming a voucher from Sony Rewards so… just gotta figure out which games to use to rebuild my points!
Hey Sony.
Can you start making 1Tb and 2Tb PS4s?
I know some special edition had 1Tb, but 500Gb just isn’t enough.
In fact if it were me, I would only make 1Tb and 2Tb model.
The bigger the HDD is the more game people are going to buy, either physical or digital.
When you have a bigger HDD, you can store more games on it and that would make a lot of profits for PlayStation and Sony.
Who doesn’t love profits. We can even go to a 4Tb model with a Samsung HDD.
I think it’s time to have options like the PS3 did when it was launched.
@ CommandingTiger
you can upgrade your PS4 HDD at any time.

Tiger, you can update the HDD in your system yourself. Very easy and doesn’t void its warranty. Probably also cheaper than buying a 1 or 2tb unit from Sony.
