It was a logical thing to expect; if the asking price of a service increases, one expects to get something extra for it. PlayStation Plus subscribers had similar expectations, but those expectations have been quashed by a recent rumor about upcoming PS Plus games.
PlayStation Plus Extra games for September seem to have leaked, and no one is happy
Everyone is aware that Sony rewards subscribers of its PlayStation Plus service with a bunch of new games on a monthly basis. Ever since they started a tier system, though, these games have increased in number too, with the highest tier getting the most games.

Recently, September games for PlayStation Plus Extra subscribers were revealed online by a leaker. And those games are indeed an interesting bunch. Here they are –
- NieR Replicant ver.1.22474487139…
- Star Ocean: The Divine Force
- 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim
- Sid Meier’s Civilization VI
- Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2
- Unpacking
It is pretty evident that this list consists of only two games that can even be considered triple-A. Others are either double-A online offerings or indie titles. This has come as a disappointment to the fans of the PlayStation platform. They do not see this list as worthy of the $134.99 per year that Sony asks for the PS Plus Extra tier.
It makes sense too; after a price hike of around 30% for each tier. If Sony continues giving subscribers these kinds of titles, they are sure to be disappointed. It would be worth a look at what games they reveal for the Premium tier. This is the most expensive of them all at $159.99 per year.
Fans have been voicing their disappointment on this matter!
Fans all over X have decided to call Sony out on what they call a disappointment. A number of them have stated that their expectations have been crushed by this new reveal.
Dani let it out how someone stated a while ago that Sony gives away high-quality games with a PlayStation Plus subscription.
No way I thought it was" high quality"games 💀😭
