It's the second Wednesday of the month, meaning we're getting an update to the PS Plus catalogue for Extra and Premium subscribers. 8 games are getting added to the service (including one currently available for Essential subscribers), with Premium subscribers getting 2 more (including a game from the PS3 era that was never actually on the PS3). Decent selection of games with a wide variety of genres. The number of games leaving is once more quite high, though.
IMPROTANT NOTE: Sony is testing the waters by staggering releases, meaning each game will be released on a different day, similar to how Game Pass handles things. We've noted the dates for each game under their title, and we moved the platforms there too. This only applies to the US, UK and Japan regions. Everyone else is getting the games on September 15th.
Descriptions (in italic) taken from the blog post. Let's get into it!
