With an active PlayStation Plus membership, you're entitled to at least three free games monthly, referred to as the Essential games. Once in your library, these titles remain playable as long as your PS Plus membership is active.
These games often include a mix of indie gems, top-tier AAA titles, and others that lie somewhere in between.
PlayStation Plus Explained: Features, Different Tiers & Costs
Every PS Plus member can access the PlayStation Plus Essential Games without any extra charges, regardless of your subscription tier. These titles stay available for a month before a fresh batch takes their place. In addition to the new PS Plus Essential titles, we'll also showcase the games introduced to the Extra and Premium tiers in September for your reference.
PS Plus September 2023: Essential Games
We'll start with the PlayStation Plus Essential Games. The following three games are available for all PS Plus subscribers to download in September 2023 until early October.
The September games are now out of the rotation. Check out the PS Plus October line-up and the first reveal for November instead:
Saints Row
Saints Row was very recently released (2022) and so it's quite the surprise to see it being given away for free. Sadly the game was poorly-received when it launched, but it has received some serious bug fixes since release, and so you should have a good time with it this month.
At worst it's "GTA at home", but that isn't exactly a bad thing even if it's derivative.

Black Desert (Traveler Edition)
Black Desert is a fantasy MMORPG that features some awesome PvE combat as well as very large-scale PvP combat. If you're familiar with MMORPG's you will feel very at home with everything Black Desert has to offer, but if you're not don't worry - Black Desert is a good introduction to the genre.

Generation Zero
Generation Zero is a bizarre but fun game that we think any fan of shooters will get a solid 10 hours out of. The year is 1980, the place is Sweden, and the enemy is an army of out-of-control robots.
