PlayStation Plus: Free Games for September 2016

Hello, PlayStation Plus members! We’re happy to reveal your free PS4 games for September, 2016. This month you can slash your way through demonic hordes, or journey across the ruins of a forgotten civilization. Let’s get started!

First up is Journey. The talented developers at thatgamecompany bring us the critically acclaimed adventure and winner of numerous Game of the Year awards. Finding yourself alone in the desert, you must make your way to the mountaintop. But there’s so much more to this sublime experience than simply traversing the world. With stunning visuals, an amazing soundtrack, and a unique online experience, don’t miss the very special experience that is Journey.

Next up is Lords of the Fallen. Looking for redemption for past sins, you play as Harkyn and try to end a war between humans and the gods. With three classes to choose from, you can tailor the combat experience to your liking. And in a game where every encounter matters and your choices have consequences, the layers of customization are an integral part of the action. So collect your gear and prepare for close-quarters combat as you take the fight to the demon lords.

Full Lineup

  • Lords of the Fallen, PS4
  • Journey, PS4, PS3
  • Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands, PS3
  • Datura, PS3

  • I have always wanted to play Journey and now I get the chance. Awesome! People always whine about everything. Just be happy that we get free games. I remember back in the day when we couldn’t afford a game and we just played the free demos over and over. Now you actually get the whole game. It at least gives you something new to play. And the price hike. Have any of you did the math. $60/year comes out to be 5 dollars a month! 5 DOLLARS! And you get to play online, you get free games and you get discounts on things you want to buy. 5 DOLLARS A MONTH! Canada pays 84 cents more. 84 CENTS! You all spend more than that at McDonalds a month. Stop being so cheap! Keep in mind, those few dollars every month is going to a company that entertains you. These games take a lot of time to make and there are a lot of people behind them. And there is a lot of equipment that has to be maintained to keep your favorite game online. I think you should have to pay for it. YOU ARE THE ONES USING THEM! This money keeps them going and gives you the ability to play. This is how you support. So stop whining!

    My only question is, when will the Update 4.0 come out? Can’t wait for those folders! :)

  • great games thnx Sony journey is gret also lord is great with you Sony for ever.

  • Hello. I’m from Brazil, where games aren’t so cheap as in the US. The subscriptions are in the same level too. I have both consoles and pay for both services. So I think I can tell with some property that PS+ was great when it was created back in PS3 generation. Because it was just a premium service. The online gaming wasn’t included. It was still free. With the obligation of being a member to play online, that’s something Sony missed. The obligation of providing a good online service. And believe me, its no good. XBLIVE DOES NOT HAVE THE ISSUES SO FREQUENTLY AS YOU THINK. The press around the world are against the other company and I really don’t know why. Sony must invest on servers to provide a more stable experience to every single 20 million subscriber. And here in Brazil, free games are very important to keep the service worthy. That’s just my opinion. I really think it must be better. All aspects included. By the way, here the XBLGold costs 50 per cent more than PS+, even after the price change.

  • Seems like a really good month. Have been wanting to try these games.

  • the ps plus games still the same from last month it didnt change for me , am i the only one who didnt got the new games ?

  • Yes because the free games are not what yall expected, if you dont like what they are doing then go play xbox. From some of your logics of, oh we pay a few bucks more so we demand the free games be triple star with a shiny gold star and it must make everything we touch gold. Its a free damn game who cares, if you dont like it then oh well dont play em. There are millions of otherngames you can play and quite a few free ones sitting in the store right now ya just gotta go find them and i guess since a lambo cost more than your car that means you get free right just because the price is higher, well go try that and see how it goes and let me known

  • If you cant afford 5 bucks a month to keep the PSN more stable than it was free, you need to sort your life out and maybe take up a new hobby. PS is just meeting industry norms with MS and Steam. Everyone relax. It would still be a good service without free games. Gamers are so entitled sometimes, it’s embarrassing.

    • WHAT??!???!??!! People like you are the reason why Sony can get away with such anti-consumer practices. Corporate slaves with a huge case of Stockholm Syndrome. It’s not being about entitled, it’s about being nickel and dimed for Sony to get a few hundred million extra in revenue. Comntrary to what you said the industry norm does not apply to the PC when playing online. IT’S FREE ON THE PC. It’s only Microsoft and Sony’s corporate slavery that impose that fake standard in your head. It’s all marketing gimmick that you and all the subscribers have fallen for, subscribe to a service that should be free, and get some ‘free’ games as a prize, games that you have no choice on what’s offered. You are a stupid consumer and your PS Plus logo shows it. A corporate slave, a stupid console peasant.

  • I’m not going through all the comments to see if it has been posted but EU has already gotten Prince of Persia The Forgotten Sands. So, Will we be getting a different game for the PS3?

  • Finally some good games. Thank you Sony! Keep it up and I may not buy a computer in the next few years or when the new console comes out.

  • When are these even going to be available for us to download? It’s now Sept 2nd, and the only games showing are August’s games.

  • If you guys are planing to jack up the cost of PSN+ then the quality of the free games better imrpove. Only good game here is Journey and it’s ancient,

  • Why don’t PS4 players get as many games as PS3 players? I own both systems, but my PS3 is all but dead. Still, I don’t want to play it when I have a beasty PS4 to play instead anyway. It’s been several years. You guys don’t find this odd?

  • It’s still showing games from August. Is your calendar that late?

  • Oh look! another month and more “self entitled” gamer’s. What a shock, not! Here is the deal , yea it sucks for the price increase. But then again, nothing is forcing you to have to pay it? Or even keep your PS plus membership. But still yet, every single month the same majority have to come back and whine and complain. And to that I say shut it. I am so sick and tired of hearing people complain. Heck I feel more sorry for PlayStation, because they have to read all the complaints. So do yourselves a huge ” favor” and quit gaming, all together and find a new “hobby” quick. Your making us “hardcore” gamer’s and this community look bad.

    • You’re a console peasant who is a very stupid consumer. IDIOTS like you come in all shapes and forms, easy targets for corporations to take advantage off.

  • How do I download the free games to the cloud? Specifically “Journey”. Thanks

  • Yes! Can’t wait to play Journey on Tuesday! But not gonna lie, Lords of the Fallen looks a hell of a lot like Dark Souls…

  • Why is lord of the fallen still 20$ ?? … I can’t find it for free

  • When will these games be available?

  • I was excited to see Journey on the list of free games for PlayStation Plus members this month. As soon as I got home from work, I tried to download it, but found that it forces me to sign up for a PlayStation Now subscription in order to download it. I understand wanting to make money, but if it’s listed as a free game for PlayStation Plus members, then why backhand us with a “You have to pay $20 to $50 in order to have this”?? Not cool, Sony. Severely disappointed.

  • So when is the games coming to the playstation network? Im still waiting to download them and they dont even show up as free

  • I find a problem with this lineup. The first, and most important one being:

    1.) Journey was already free on PS4 for people who bought Journey on the PS3. So was Flower and Fl0w.

    2.) Pitching 2 games to PS3 and 2 games to Vita is ridiculous. PS4 users are getting one game they may not have played before, and one game they’ve already gotten for free when they bought it back on the PS3 the first time.

    Having a price hike for internet access is pretty lame. The other half-off plus only deals on the store have been nice as of late, but they aren’t price-hike nice. It really isn’t worth it.

    My question is this… Do the two free PS3 games for the month extend into the Playstation Now service? Maybe I should get Playstation Now. I never got the Vita because I couldn’t access remote play with a DS4 controller.

    If people pay attention, which, most case they don’t:

    https://blog.playstation.com/2015/07/07/journey-arrives-on-ps4-july-21st/

    Wake up call! This game was already free last year.

    “If you have digitally purchased it already for PS3, you can download it free for PS4.”

  • Hello PlayStation, I got my PS subscription of three months 4days back. But now I can’t find Journey on my PS Plus. How to download for free. Please help. I am new to PlayStation

  • Go get a gaming PC. So long as you stick with consoles, you are at the mercy of the manufacturers who hide basic functionalities like online gaming behind a pay wall.

  • I am very very Disappointed.I expected WATCHDOGS since they are increasing the PS Plus subscription fee.

  • JOURNEY!? I’ve been wanting to play that since it came out but the sale prices in the past never cut deep enough for me to bite. I’m really looking forward to playing it (when I get to puck up a PS4 that is. I’m waiting for the Slim to release) and the other game looks pretty good too. And I’m looking forward to the PS3 titles this month too! Good job Sony, another strong PS+ month! Seriously, one of the best investments I’ve made with the brand. Oh, and VUE is freaking KILLING IT! I can finally cancel with stupid Comcast. Love you all and keep up the amazing work!

  • This company is really starting to piss me off, you wanna charge us all this money for a ps+ subscription and you can’t give us some decent free games. Yes Journey is good but it came out so long ago everybody has already played it and we all played it on PS3. I know Sony can’t be hurting for money come on now

    • PlayStation is one of the few divisions in the entirety of Sony Corporation that is doing well. They got themselves some 20 odd million paid or post-paid subscribers so that’s a gold mine for them to abuse. I only use my SEN account to attack idiot consumers who continue to support the greed of this company. I agree with you, I smelled the deceit and lies of this company and I jumped shipped to a more consumer friendly platform. A platform with free online gaming, a platform that fits all budgets, a platform with much cheaper games, and a platform with more exclusives than Uncharted or The Last of Us. That’s the PC, where choices abound and don’t require you to start from scratch every half a decade or so. A platform where you don’t need the highest end components to even get superior graphical quality over the consoles. A platform that respects the consumer with choices.

  • This lineup is… I feel cheated. It’s a seriously great lineup, but I got lord of the fallen with gold months ago, and bought journey for about 10 dollars or less, with flower and flow. For others, this might be the best in months, but getting for example Bound and Inversus would have been a lot better for me. Whatever, I’m sure I’m in the minority right now, and somewhere I am happy that this is the lineup we got, because they are great games… Yeah, whatever is fine.

  • Really this is what we paid for? Don’t get me wrong, lord of fallen seems to be a decent looking game for this month.
    I still think it’s realllllllyyy pointless to pay a subscription to play online honestly
    Another thing is the games per month is getting stale indie games really? Sony you can do better then that
    My complaint is that we’re paying like 49.99 for ps+ and all we get in return is a bunch of maintenances at a Inconvenient time, and Sony is becoming Greedy for them to increase PlayStation plus from 49.99 to $60 USD or $70 CAD

  • When do these games come out? It’s already been September for 3 days now.

  • Hi. When are you planning on releasing the games? Only the August games are available, at least on my account. Thanks

  • I would realy like to play Indiana jones and the staff of kings on ps4 please. Or would like to buy it if its possible

  • All these games i pay on the ps plus its crap for the money we spend its not worth it anymore i want Indiana jones and the staff of kings.

  • Were can i get wwe 2k17 demo for ps4

  • This is my Last year being a ps plus member its to much money for stupid indi games for the money we pay we should get better games. Ya im ****ed

  • Does anyone agree with me?

  • when are the actual games going to be here because it is still on the month august instead of September

  • How to get the games?

  • Omg can’t wait

  • When will they be on the Playstation? That guy looks like Kratos from the new God Of War lol.

  • When will the games be available? I still see only August’s games avalable for download

  • I’m gonna guess most with a ps plus sub have already played journey and lords of the Fallen is pure garbage. This is what we get right when u announce a price increase? You kidding me? I’m already ****ed that sony has crapped on 45 million ps4 owners by releasing neo. I preordered ps vr day one only to find out about neo a week later so I’m still upset. Money grubbing. This crap you’re doing isn’t going to keep sony on top. Eventually enough will stop buying into your crap. I’ll give ps plus one more monah to see if they change their tune on what they offer and if it stays like this I’ll be done just like I was with xbox live. Get it together sony. Show some love to your customers like u used to :(

  • Guys we already in September and I dont see the games at the store yet…. When they ganna come tho ?

  • It’s the 4th of September and they are not out? What date do they come out and is there a way of me figuring what date all monthly games come out

  • is it just me, or do these never come out at the start of the month, its 4 days into September, and still no signs of these games on the ps+ list. ahhhh!

  • it’s Sunday now and the games are NOT OUT YET WTF Playstaion!!!

  • I think the games we get are garbage. There are tons of games that have come out that could be possibly free, but instead we get old games or indie games. Maybe I should switch to Xbox where when I pay for online play I get really good games. Sony you suck now you make us pay online, give us ****** games, and now raise the price for ps plus and still give us ****** games. Your company is becoming a joke and at least Microsoft does a better job with their customers. Hope you are happy you have lost one to them!

  • I don’t understand the sycophants who constantly say “great month guys” ps plus has been horrible for the last 6 months the NBA2k and gone home month almost broke me I was so close to canceling and to make matters worse they are putting the price up
    I’m giving them until the end of the year to start releasing decent free content or I’m gone

  • Sony said that they will be adding the September ps plus games on Tuesday 6 bevause they are giving ps plus member a chance to download August games

  • So great… I could never find a hard copy of LoF, but now I can finally play it on my ps4!!

  • When i open PS store , i still see the games of August in there ……
    Why can’t i see the games of September
