After an incredible week at E3, we’re back in action with our noses to the grindstone, so to speak. You likely saw the announcements that touched on PlayStation Plus, and we’re looking forward to sharing more news with you in the coming months on PS Plus and the benefits of one membership across PS3, PS Vita, and now PS4; of which we confirmed will have an Instant Game Collection.
Of course, we’re still bringing you new content every week in PS Plus, and this week is no exception. With tomorrow’s PlayStation Store update, you’ll have access to the critically acclaimed Saints Row: The Third on PS3, and the anime stylized PSP action game Gods Eater Burst (compatible on PS Vita); both free with your PS Plus membership. Read on, and let us know what you think!
June 18th PlayStation Plus Update
Saints Row: The Third (PS3)
Years after taking Stilwater for their own, the Third Street Saints have evolved from street gang to household brand name, with Saints sneakers, Saints energy drinks and Johnny Gat bobble head dolls all available at a store near you. The Syndicate, a legendary criminal fraternity with pawns in play all over the globe, has turned its eye on the Saints and demands tribute. Refusing to kneel to the Syndicate, you take the fight to a new city.
Gods Eater Burst (PSP, Compatible on PS Vita)
In Gods Eater Burst, the earth is plagued by altered beasts known as Aragami. The player is a new member of an elite force created to wield the God Arc (the only weapon capable of killing the Aragami) and devour the hostile gods. The player’s mission is to defeat the Aragami and gather material from them for research, but the player soon will realize they are being drawn into a giant conspiracy that will irreversibly alter the fate of humanity

Oh my lord!! I’m so exciting! can’t wait for download this!!!
Soo.. when is it coming up on the store… cant wait to go to sleep and download it! (Thats what I usually do) hehe
Also.. people.. please dont ask for the impossible…. like really? Asking for a Far Cry 3/Crysis 3 and DmC Devil May Cry? lol.. if its a Sony Exclusive yes it will go to the IGC this early time of the year….. like PS AllStars and LittleBigPlanet.. but in the meantime.. please dont ask for the impossible.. i’ve been reading through all of the comments and I just cant seem to believe what im seeing.. oh well off to sleep I go.. still cant wait to play Saints Row: The Third tomorrow or in the near future. :)
Long. Live. Play. Sony PlayStation. Thank You for Focusing on the Games!
Just a thought. And I think it would be a great one. Here it goes… Steam on PS4. Not to replace Plus. Just to be awesome. Of course, PS4 is going to be amazing either way!
Hey is this coming to Australia as well, and if it is anyone know what day?
I buy a lot of exclusive for the PS personally, yet I have this game on PC, however I am glad to see it on PS+ cause now I can spend time on it on my PS3 and getting in some game time with my nephews. Whom for some reason are always trying to get Uncle to play with them. So I guess where all gonna have a ball.
Been with PS+ since it started and it’s has always been a great value which is why I continue to have it’s service. Rock On!!!!!
I wish there was a ‘Keep it forever’ special price for PS Plus games.
yeeeeeessss Saints Row 3!!! Love this game! Keep up the good work on the IGC!
i must thank playstation and playstation plus, i have had many plus games and i love the content i can use to play with family. its a win win i tell everyone i know and they wonder how i can afford so many games and i tell em get plus and now saints 3 to the collection lol good lord i need more gbs
I seriously hope when Terraria releases for Vita, PS Plus has some kind of package discount for purchasing that version and the PS3 version together.
This entire month has nothing for me since it’s mostly mainstream titles and I already have them :(
I have a lot of games though–I feel like it’ll be more challenging for Plus to serve me any benefit. I’m lacking more obscure games and PSN titles like Terraria, Russ n Attack Ex Patriot, Escape Plan…
Jeez if we’re going to go retail–Armored Core V, hmm, Metal Gear Rising, Family Guy Multiverse… maybe some newer stuff like Crysis 3, or a discount on Farcry 3 Blood Dragon…
I do appreciate the Instant Game Collection and all the perks that come with PS Plus. However, I must say that you guys are completely out of touch with digital distribution pricing. What incentive would I have to purchase a digital copy of a game that I can find a brand new physical copy for much less? This business model needs serious reevaluation for it to be capable of working successfully.
At what time they gonna update the Playstation Plus?
Hi. Is there an option here to send an email to me when PS PLUS stuff gets posted? i missed Sleeping Dogs last month. lol.
great IGC. this is why i became a member a year ago. i hope TOMBA 2 gets released in PSN and also Legend of Legaia.
I would really like to see Sony give PS+ users early or exclusive acess to E3 demos like Lords Of Shadows 2
I agree, I’d love to see I Am Alive here, especially now that I’ve been playing The Last of Us
You’re leaving Virtue’s Last Reward for the end of the month aren’t you? Aren’t you? It’s driving me CRAZY!!!!!
AWESOME cant wait to download Saints row 3 and God eater is an awesome game
I’m new to this PS+ stuff having just gotten back on board with the PS3 after so many years– and now I am wondering why “Saints Row:The Third” doesn’t say it’s a Free download for me.
What am I doing wrong?
I’m confused…
I swear PS Plus is going to make me trade in all my games because they keep giving me games I have already LOL and I love that! I have only brought one game for the vita because of PS Plus! I don’t what the new PSP game is but I will try it out after work!
It’s updates like this one that make me wish I’d signed up for PS Plus MONTHS ago instead of weeks. It’s incredible.
I would love to see another big sale on PSOne and PS2 Classics soon. I’ve got a laundry list of Squaresoft/Square-Enix games and a few notable PS2 titles I would love to add to my digital collection. Just waiting for that sale!
When is the update available? it’s june 18 now and still no psplus update. btw, ill be renewing my subscription just for this
Hi Morgan!
It’s been a while since i make a post here, i do check all the time.
I would like to see PS2 games like: Dark Cloud 2 and Valkyrie Profile 2.
We need an option to buy games even if they are offer as free for plus members, for example: Guardians of Middle Earth…i couldn’t buy it for 3.75$ because i downloaded from plus…very sad.
Thanks in advance!
Omii132
this is what i’m talking about!! hopefully we get kingdoms of amalur soon ;D keep up the good work
Morgan, where is the Brazilian Language Pack on Uncharted 3?
Cool =)
I would love to get Resistance 3 next! Keep up the amazing work, Sony!
So around when will the store update as big as a fan as I am of saints I can’t wait to play or
Hopefully God Eater will lead into a localization of God Eater 2……… at retail.
@195 i’d be interested in that digital rental thing they plan to do with Gaikei. I would rather rent and play different games than spend $60 on one game i’ll never play again after i finish its story.
Dear Playstation, I missed out on Sleeping Dogs.. because i’m lame. Could you please bring it back?
Love Spiral-Infinity level 13 dual PS3 owner
PS I love you
PS………4!
Maybe it’s been discussed before, but I’m going to keep plus for probably as long the PS3’s supported life cycle however I don’t think there is room in the budget for PS4 for atleast a year. Will I be able to flag the PS4 IGC games so that when I eventually I buy the PS4 I’ll have those games from the IGC and not miss out on them?
Saints Row the third cool, but do u think we can get an instant movie collection going I would really enjoy it
Hello guys! (I’m from Hungary, so sorry for the mistakes)
Today, i’ve got a 30 days trial PS Plus code from Playstation Home E3 Booth….
I’d like to use but I wouldn’t have to. I haven’t got a Credit Card, i want to access to the Ps + without a credit card.

Thank you for Saint’s Row and Gods Eater: Burst. Both are great games.
Are we going to be able to play online with others from the game or no?
Not wanting to be impatient, but its 1:34 PM where I am and still no update. I love SR3 and really wanna download it soon. The wait is killing me!
@ klassymike
Thanks for the answer!
I have an American account too. I can’t use the code in the EU store. (UK and US account only for Playstation Plus games and for Playstation Home)
Man my first month of PS plus and this thing has already paid for itself!! (Paid $30 for a year).
Uncharted3
Little Big Planet Karting
Xcom
Vanquish
bunch of arcade titles
and now Saints Row 3!!! I should have joined earlier! Looks like I missed out on a bunch of great titles.
Hello, l havent got the update yet :(. So l dont have lt , What should l do?
Morgan I got to play GOW 3 however, I have skipping issues along with repeating words. I would like to see santa monica put that on the playstation plus so that I can actually play it. I beat 4 but I need to find out in 3 what happens. Is the DLCs going to be added with SR3?
to all the newbies on here, the store hasn’t updated yet which is why you can’t get your free content. There is no set time for it to update. We just wait until it does.
AWESOME!!!!
Niiiice, too bad Gods Eater isn’t playable on the PS3. I don’t have a Vita or PSP. >_<
can someone help me? i went on my ps3 and got uncharted 3 for free but it doesn’t show saints row the third.
READ COMMENT #243!!
lol sorry, thanks though
when is Saint Row: The Third will be up for download??
Thank you in advance :D
To my poor neglected Vita: I’m sorry you must bare the burden of another PSP title.
