A Look At The PlayStation Plus September 2024 Lineup Of Essential Tier Games

Sony’s PlayStation Plus September 2024 games lineup is here and it brings a mix of genres, ensuring there’s something for everyone to enjoy.

PlayStation Plus has been providing players with a variety of titles that span multiple genres, from action to intense sports simulations. The PlayStation Plus September 2024 games are no exception either, as they offer a diverse set of experiences that cater to both casual and hardcore gamers alike.

Among September 2024 games, subscribers will find games that offer them rich ‘magical’ narratives to experience and immersive worlds to explore. As usual, these games will be available at no extra cost to all PS Plus subscribers. 

Just like the August 2024 lineup, which delivered an array of hits across tiers, the September list consists of carefully selected excellent titles that should not be missed.

This article will discuss the PlayStation Plus September 2024 lineup in detail, including its release year, genre and why you must try your hands on said title. 

All the Essential tier games coming to PlayStation Plus in September 2024

Keeping in mind that September is special for fans of Harry Potter books and films — it is the month when young witches and wizards go back to school to start a new year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry — PlayStation has included something for them on the menu.

This upcoming sports game from the Harry Potter universe will allow gamers to customise their character, broom and go on a journey to be a champion of this magical sport. Harry Potter: Quidditch Champions will be available for free on day 1 to PlayStation Plus subscribers. 

You can play alone or with up to 6 players online and participate in several matches that take place in various well-known locations from the Harry Potter universe.

MLB The Show 24

Yet another sports title in the PlayStation Plus September 2024 lineup is MLB The Show 24. This game is well known for its realistic portrayal of Major League Baseball and offers players the chance to step into the shoes of the biggest players out there. 

You can be a manager or just go onto the field yourself; this game gives you the freedom to play it as you want. 

Little Nightmares II

Genre: Horror, Platformer

Little Nightmares II is the final game coming to PlayStation Plus Essential in September 2024. You play as a young boy trapped in a nightmarish world. To escape it, you must solve puzzles, go through several platforming levels, and occasionally, you must face your greatest fears. 

It’s a very artistic yet creepy game that should not be missed by any horror enthusiast out there. 

Are PlayStation Plus users also getting ‘Final Fantasy XVI’ in September?

Several PlayStation 5 users noticed they were able to download Final Fantasy XVI on their consoles for a short time. This game was available for PS Plus users in various regions, though Sony did not confirm the same. 

One cannot help but wonder if we are about to get Final Fantasy XVI with the PlayStation Plus September 2024 lineup when games for Extra and Premium tiers are announced. The timing is not unusual, given the fact that Square Enix recently announced the PC version of Final Fantasy XVI, which is set to release on 17 September 2024.
