Before we get to what’s coming to PlayStation Plus, we wanted to let you know that starting today, we’re making a slight change to how we communicate PlayStation Plus updates. Instead of posting twice per month on what’s coming to Plus, we’re going to be making one post that gives an overview of all the content that’s hitting Plus in that particular month. So today’s post will cover content coming in September, and the next post will hit in the first Monday of October. Of course, with every week’s Store Update post, you’ll know what’s going on the Store for Plus on that week.
Now to the good stuff! We’ve got some great content this month coming free to Plus subscribers including PopCap’s Plants vs. Zombies, the furious shoot-em-up Astro Tripper, and the final game in the SEGA Genesis Collection, Altered Beast. The value of all three of these titles adds up to more than a $24 savings, which doesn’t include the additional minis and PSone Classics you’ll get this month too. This month also marks a special occasion as we’re celebrating the Resident Evil 15th Anniversary with PSone Classics: Resident Evil Director’s Cut, Resident Evil 2, and Resident Evil 3, all free to PlayStation Plus subscribers starting 9/20, for 2 weeks only. In other PSone Classic news, Jet Moto will also be free starting tomorrow, 9/6.
On the discount side of things, Resident Evil 4 (releasing 9/20 on PSN) and Resident Evil Code Veronica (releasing on 9/27 on PSN) will be 50% off for Plus subscribers as part of the RE 15th Anniversary special. We’ll also offer for 1 week an additional 50% off select LucasArts PSP content on sale for PSN . Check the list below for all the titles in this lineup as well as the other discounts.
There’s tons more including new Full Game Trials, free themes and avatars; all will be coming on the dates noted below for September. Let us know your thoughts in the comments below and enjoy!

I was only going to buy Re4 only, but now that both are half price I will most likely buy both XD
Swear some people feel like they’re entitled to everything. Pay no attention to those people. Sony thanks for the monthly updates and good deals.
oh my god.. wow! tons of free stuff.. loving Ps+
@134
Auto update works just fine, all you got to do is update your time on your Ps3 via the internet and it should work
Capcom should make a bundle for both RE games for everyone.
5 Resident Evil games for around $20? Count me in!
for once i am actually impressed with this ps+ update can’t wait for resident evil 2 and 3
Good job Sony keep em coming!!! Some Home items too please
aw man i missed my free games and ps+ trial lol but FRICKIN SWEET DEALS only with ps+
Wow just saved over $30 from PS+ in one month. This combined with the $14 dollars I saved from PS+ during the summer sale and the just under $10 I saved in between then and now and about five or six minis and PS1 classics pushes me over my the price of my subscription in 3 months time. Whoever says PS+ isn’t worth it is foolish. I didn’t even think I’d get my subscription’s worth because I was not that active of PS Store user but I easily have. What I’m getting: RE 1-4 and Code Veronica all for $20 plus Plants vs Zombies and the rest of the free stuff.
Whoa… I think I might actually subscribe now!
we’ll be doing much more with Plus as the months roll on, good time to jump on board!
