Time really does fly when you’re having fun. We’ve barely got done ensuring that the awful teenage cast of Until Dawn endure the worst deaths imaginable, and already it’s time to start thinking about August 2017’s big PlayStation Plus update. We’re anticipating an announcement for the full lineup on 26th July ahead of a rollout on 1st August, so the speculation is on.
Sony’s service has undoubtedly been on a bit of a roll this year, so long may it continue. There has been a lot of adventure games lately, however, so we’re looking for something different. What about a casual racing game to pad the summer months? Trackmania Turbo would be a decent shout in our opinion. Maybe you fancy something else?
Share your suggestions for August 2017’s PlayStation Plus lineup in the comments section below. Do you want something brand new – titles due on 1st August include the anticipated Patapon Remastered, but it’s already up for pre-order and thus is unlikely to be given away – or would you prefer the platform holder dipped into its PS4 archives again? Let us know below.

Sonic Mania.
Wolf Among Us, with season 2 coming soon maybe
Still think Lego Worlds should be a free PS Plus title.
I still think you guys should knack it off with this segment
1 old good AAA games, 1 new good indie games, that's all I want from psplus.
Knack too hype up the 2nd game.
No longer a plus member because the last two months haven't interested me so they will need to pull something out to get me to rejoin.
@Elodin NO MORE ADVENTURE GAMES
Just picked up Salt & Sanctuary after scouting it for months so it has to be the favorite to go free this month. Im down for a casual racing game though!
It will be whatever I have bought in the sale recently. Just kidding. Surely Knack is on the cards unless they are worried it will put people off the sequel?
Just copy and paste the comments from last months article tbh, it's always the same lol
I'd like Mass Effect Andromeda. I've played about 7 hours of the trial and while I found myself nowhere near as enthusiastic playing it as I was playing the other ME games, I thought it wasn't as bad as the Internet made out. The weapons, armours and powers all looked pretty good from an RPG perspective.
Maximum value.
Why do I have a feeling it might be The Order 1886 thats the big surprise AAA game
After getting Yomawari and HtoL#NiQ, I might have a reason to join the "It'll totally be in IGC now" paranoia club myself - my own luck is a troll, after all. XD Not that either game wouldn't make a solid addition to the lineup for other players.
Otherwise, the usual. Must I name specific titles so the comment sounds less boring? Then let it be BlazBlue Calamity Trigger - I've been holding out for more fighters and PSP offerings routinely now among others, and this one, the first game's portable port (screw the redundancy, the phrase is always music to my ears regardless), would also make for the perfect entry point with this series...
But again, knowing my luck, I wouldn't be surprised if it was given away for PS3 instead. :^P XD
My Hong Kong PS Plus account went live a few days ago (got it free for buying Danganronpa: Ultra Despair Girls on PS4 in the HK store - in English) so I'm looking forward to what I get from there. We got 6 PS4 games + 1 Ps3 game this month as they added Darksiders 2 as a bonus 2 days ago.
Fallout 4 and Doom
Shovel Knight or perhaps Odin Sphere
I don't even bother checking these days. I got bored of going through the ritual of adding them to my library, knowing full well that I'll never download nor ever play any of them.
Also, there''s around 18 days until I can download my pre-order of Sudden Strike 4. That should keep me occupied through August, as I pretend to be Eric von Manstein, on the Ostfront, defending western Europe from the bolshevik hordes, lol.
I've bought a fair bit in the Summer and Digital sale so I can guarantee it will definitely be one of them...
Watch Dogs, MAD MAX, HEAVY RAIN, WWE 2k15
Sammy you actually said something positive about my precious Trackmania Turbo. I guess we can be friends again ;-p
@OneArmedGiant The last two months where great?
Just surprise me the big titles i always buy straight away. So i dont really mind the indie games
My picks would be:
Hyper Light Drifter
NBA Playgrounds
Official guess for the record: Mirror's Edge Catalyst
I love Trackmania, and I too was thinking an arcadey racer would be neat... but for Summer, I feel like Riptide GP Renegade or Aquamoto Utopia would make a for a good PS+ game now-ish.
Its hard to think of stuff that's old enough that it seems realistic Sony would cut a deal with the indie dev because sales probably plateau'd already, y'know? They always pull stuff out of who-knows-where. But both Renegade and Utopia are good enough, old enough, and indie enough to be on that radar, I feel. Trackmania would be a nice surprise too though.
Whatever it is, I probably already own it.
Fairy Fencer F would be nice as would any number of higher profile PSN releases. We need an RPG offering, it's been far too long since the last one was offered through PS+...
Lichtspeer, please.
Hyper light drifter!
Blood Bourne
Mother rushia bleeds, axium verge. Uhhh other things
Dead by daylight.
Can you imagine if they started adding VR games into the mix?
Yakuza 0
No Man's Sky, hahahahaha!!
@ApostateMage Mass Effect Andromeda isn't as bad as people make it out to be but I doubt it be a Playstation plus free game for a while. It's only a few months old and I think they usual go for games that'll make people want PS plus.
Kids are off, so a game for the summer holidays please. And something like I Am Setsuna or Child of Light, I fancy some RPG action, but one that isn't going to require too much of my time...
Another episodic game would be ace.
Nex Machina, Darkesr Dungeon, and Axiom Verge
Mother Russia Bleeds, Killzone and A free movie.
This is the weak month for the PSN and the strong one for the Live.
Rotation bias...
Child of Light
The Wolf Among Us
Danganronpa 2
NBA Playgrounds
Dead by daylight
WWE 2k17 or MLB 16
A game that I could have bought from the shops more than a year ago that I have not played, and a decent psn game whether indie or whatnot
We should know by tomorrow afternoon! :3
