PlayStation Plus Free Games September 2018

Editorial Team

Some of us may still be suffering through this year’s heat wave – which provides ample opportunity to stay in an air conditioned home and play some games. And just in time, Sony has announced their next line up for PlayStation Plus free games September 2018 which will be available for download on Tuesday, September 4.

For the PlayStation 4, there’s Destiny 2, the online first-person shooter and sequel to the 2014 title by Bungie, which has you fighting off alien forces either by yourself, with friends, or a group of strangers. And God of War III Remastered, the revamped version of the 2010 PS3 version which has Kratos taking his revenge out on Olympus itself.

On the PlayStation 3, there’s Another World: 20th Anniversary Edition, a cinematic platforming adventure first released in 1991, about a scientist tumbling through space and time after a failed experiment. The game is also a cross-plat on both the PS4 and PS Vita. And QUBE Director’s Cut, a platforming puzzle game in first-person, where players use high-tech gloves to alter the environment in order to reach deeper levels of a cube that is on a collision course for Earth. The game is also a cross-plat on the PS4.

And for the PlayStation Vita, there’s Sparkle 2, an action-puzzle game in which players make their way through levels to find the five enchanted keys. Sparkle 2 is a cross-plat on both the PS3 and PS4. And Foul Play, a side-scrolling brawler with co-op capabilities where performance on the stage is more important than simply punching away enemies.

Among the PlayStation Plus free games September 2018 line-up, God of War III Remastered, Destiny 2, and Foul Play all have Platinum trophies to unlock. Among them, Foul Play is perhaps the easiest and requiring only about 18 hours of gameplay, while God of War III Remastered is of average difficulty and needs about 15 hours, depending on skills. Also, both Another World: 20th Anniversary Edition and QUBE Director’s Cut are fairly easy games to unlock 100% of the trophies, and each only require a few hours with a walkthrough.

Also, the PlayStation VR title Here They Lie still remains a free download for PlayStation Plus members until October 2. And the party game Knowledge is Power continues to remain a free download for members until November 6.

God of War III

Kratos is back, in this anticipated sequel to the popular series which began on the PlayStation 2.

After losing the Blade of Olympus during his attack with Zeus, Kratos falls into the Underworld. There, he is confronted with the spirit of Athena, who explains that he must quell the Flame of Olympus in order to destroy Zeus. the quest puts Kratos on a long journey, as he makes his way out of the Underworld and climb Mount Olympus, battling Gods and Godesses along the way.

If you've played the previous God of War games, then you'll have an idea what to expect. The difficulty in obtaining the platinum is about the same.

Like the two previous games, there is another "Challenge" - this one called Challenge of Olympus. Although it's considered to be easier and less frustrating than their versions on the earlier games. What does differentiate the third in the series, is having to clear the game on its most difficult mode - Titan mode. But with patience and some skills, you shouldn't have too much problem.

NOTE: The Trophies on the PS4 have a separate list than those on the PS3.

If you have played the previous God of War games and feel confident enough to collect all the trophies under challenging circumstances, than it's possible to play through only once, if you select Titan mode. This, of course, is much more difficult but will save you heaps of time. Otherwise, if you're not confident enough, just play on Easy and collect all possible trophies.

Use the walkthroughs and guides under our Links tab to help find and collect all the collectables (Gorgon eyes, Phoenix Feathers, etc.) and other various challenges (rip apart an Olympus Sentry, 1000-hit combo, etc.)

Once that's finished, you just have the Challenge of Olympus, and there you go!

Here is a text-based Walkthrough, posted on Squidoo, which gives tips on battling some enemies, but doesn't post the location of any collectibles. We recommend using this only if you're stuck and the other Walkthroughs weren't of any help:
