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.

Editorial Team

Summer is upon us, and while the weather is cooking up outside, it’s a great idea to hide inside and cool down with some games. So without further ado, here are the PlayStation Plus Free Games July 2018, available for download on Tuesday, July 3.

For the PlayStation 4, there’s Heavy Rain, the noir-ish mystery originally released on the PS3 in 2010 where players control four different characters and explore multiple endings while attempting to find a child kidnapped by the Origami Killer before time runs out. And Absolver, an action RPG with an emphasis on martial arts, set in the fictional open-world of Adal where proving worthiness is paramount.

On the PlayStation 3, there’s Deception IV: The Nightmare Princess, a strategy game where enemies must be defeated by luring them into traps. And Rayman 3 HD, the platformer originally released on sixth generation consoles, featuring Rayman as he kicks and punches his way to saving the Crossroad of Dreams.

And for the PlayStation Vita, there’s Space Overlords, where player-characters must join their brothers to purge the growing evil that has been slowly destroying the cosmos. And Zero Escape: Zero Time Dilemma, an interactive story with puzzles, where nine characters have been locked in an underground bomb shelter and are forced to play a game of death.

Among the PlayStation Plus free games July 2018, with the exception of Rayman 3 HD, all games have Platinum trophies to unlock. Among them, Zero Escape: Zero Time Dilemma is by far the easiest, requiring only five or six hours if following a guide and text-skipping. Heavy Rain is also fairly doable for any average gamer, needing more time than skill. Meanwhile, both Absolver and Deception IV: The Nightmare Princess have some pretty tough trophies to unlock, especially the online ones without boosting.
