Sony quietly updated its list PlayStation Plus games will be leaving the service in September. According to the current list, 12 games will be removed next month, including a first-party open-world action game Horizon Forbidden West.

It's always nice when popular video game subscription services like Xbox's Game Pass and PlayStation's Plus Library add new games for people to play. But most of those games eventually break up for various reasons—contracts are expiring, deals are expiring, etc. And in September, Sony will remove a dozen games from PS Plus.

Spotted by Wario64 And PlayStation Lifestyle12 games have been added to PlayStation Plus' “Last Chance to Play” section, and it has been announced that these games will be removed from the subscription service next month.

Here is the list of games released:

  • Horizon Forbidden West
  • Star Ocean: First Takeoff R
  • Star Ocean: Divine Power
  • Star Ocean: The Last Hope
  • Star Ocean: Until the End of Time
  • Star Ocean: Honesty and Disloyalty
  • Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2
  • NieR: Replicant
  • Marvel's Midnight Suns
  • Alien: Isolation
  • Cloudpunk
  • Spirit traveler

Like PlayStation Lifestyle It states, this is just what's been announced so far, and more games could be added and removed from this list in September. Sony has always been a poor hand at this part of running a subscription service, so be prepared for more to come than meets the eye.

And yes, it's a first-party PlayStation game—Horizon: Forbidden West—will be coming out of PS Plus soon. I’m not sure why Sony removed the game from the service, but if you haven’t finished the massive open-world robo-dino adventure game yet, you might want to download it and finish it now.

Meanwhile, Alien: Isolation going out Lastly Foreign The movie is coming to theaters (I wonder if this is a coincidence…) and Marvel's Midnight Suns Yoinked is also happening. This is happening recently too A big Marvel show featuring witches and magic Coming in October. Hmmm… it's almost as if the owners of these brands and games want to kick these titles off the subscription plan right before a new piece of media comes along and drives up interest and sales.
