PS Now is preparing for a monthly update, so what’s new on PlayStation’s streaming service? 

The last few months have been huge for Sony’s alternative to the Xbox Games Pass. The arrival of titles like Nier: Automata and Red Dead Redemption 2 has fans riled up in anticipation of the PS Now September update.

While there’s been a delay in announcing exactly what titles are coming for PS Now, we do have some educated guesses about Sony’s plans for September’s PS Plus free games.

This month, PlayStation Now is adding the following as of September 7, as per the PlayStation Blog.

When will September’s PS Now games be announced?

Santa Monica Studio - God of War
2018’s God of War marked the first new entry in the series since God of War: Ascension in 2013.

The new PS Now games typically launch during the first week of the month, and we expect that trend to continue.  It’s worth noting that CD Projekt Red’s The Witcher 3 will be leaving the service on September 6, so that may clue us in as to the arrival date of the new games as well. While we may not know exactly what’s coming, new titles in past months have included major releases such as God of War, indie-darling Undertale, and Guerilla Games’ Horizon Zero Dawn.
