A new month is almost upon us, which means Sony is about to drop some fresh games that all PlayStation Plus members can keep in their collection as long as they maintain a subscription. There are some real standouts for September, including the iconic Stardew Valley and the long-awaited sequel Psychonauts 2.
Stardew Valley is one of the most beloved farming/life sims of all time. You grow stuff, romance villagers and, of course, battle enemies in an enormous mine. It’s an absolute time sink, but one with so much charm that you likely won’t mind. It even has couch co-op now.
Psychonauts 2 is a sequel that was released a full 16 years after the original. It’s a critically-acclaimed platforming adventure that’s heavy on style. The missions are quirky and the power-ups are super fun. This one is definitely worth your time.
Finally, there’s a gem called Viewfinder. This is an awesome camera-based puzzle game that’s one-part M.C. Escher and one-part Pokémon Snap. The design aesthetic here is utterly charming and the gameplay is both familiar and unique.
All of these titles will be available on September 2. That’s the good news. The bad news? Some games are going away on September 1. Subscribers have until that date to download Lies of P, Day Z and My Hero One’s Justice 2 to their game library.
