What are this month’s PS Plus free games? Regardless of what tier you’re subscribed to, you’ll be treated to a handful of amazing free PS Plus games each month that you can download, play, and keep forever (so long as you stay subscribed, that is). The PS Plus September games lineup serves up three excellent freebies for PlayStation gamers to claim, and it includes a brand-new, day-one launch.

If you played Hogwarts Legacy and felt disappointed at the absence of quidditch, fear not, because Harry Potter Quidditch Champions leads the lineup of free PS Plus games this month. It’s also joined by one of the biggest annual sports games and one of the best platform puzzlers around. If you’re an Essential subscriber and this lineup leaves you wanting more, you can always get access to the massive PS Plus Extra and Premium games list if you decide to upgrade your subscription tier – you’ll find many of the best PS4 games and best PS5 games awaiting you there!

PS Plus free games September 2024

The PS Plus free games for September 2024 are:

  • Harry Potter Quidditch Champions
  • MLB The Show 24
  • Little Nightmares 2

When it comes to the monthly freebies on PS Plus, this is arguably one of the strongest lineups of 2024 so far. Giving away a brand-new game is always a bonus, but to also include a big hitter (literally) in MLB The Show 24 and the highly-regarded Little Nightmares 2 is impressive

This excellent trio will be available to claim and keep from Tuesday, September 3 through to Monday, September 30, so don’t forget to add them to your PlayStation library, even if you don’t have the intention of playing them right away.

Below you can find a bit more info on each game featured in September’s lineup.

Quidditch Champions

Following on from the massive success of Hogwarts Legacy, another new Harry Potter game has now arrived. Quidditch Champions, however, is a dedicated sports game that focuses in on the Wizarding World’s most popular pastime.

In Quidditch Champions, you create your own character and play through a dedicated, career mode-style campaign that sees you go from playing in the Weasley’s backyard to the Quidditch World Cup. You can do this solo, or invite friends to join you on your journey. Alternatively, there are PvP multiplayer matches for those that like to get really competitive.

You’ll play in several stunning looking arenas based in recognizable and lesser-explored locations from the Harry Potter universe. You’ll also interact with plenty of recognizable characters too.

MLB The Show 24

Continuing the sports theme, the latest entry in the MLB The Show series is now available to claim on PS Plus. If you’re a die-hard baseball fan you probably own the game already, but if for some reason you don’t, now is the perfect chance.

In fairness, there’s enjoyment to be had in MLB The Show 24 even if you’re not a baseball nut. There are some really inspiring historical stories being told through its Negro Leagues campaigns, you can craft your own custom stadiums, and the satisfaction of striking a home run is infectious regardless of who you are.

Little Nightmares 2

Little Nightmares 2 is a platform adventure game with a gorgeous art style and excellent puzzling – but as the name suggests, it’s a more sinister experience than many of its fellow platformers.

While not a gruesome or jump scare-filled horror game, Little Nightmares 2 is definitely dark and unsettling. With themes of betrayal, bullying, identity, and an overarching goal to stop a corrupting evil, it’s certainly a thought-provoking and haunting story.

This is a very tight and compact experience, with most playthroughs taking between five and seven hours – although hunting down all its collectibles and completing all its trophies will extend that by a few hours more. While it may be short, it’s definitely worth playing – as is its predecessor.

So there you have it, these are the three excellent free games you can grab right now if you’re signed up to PlayStation’s subscription service. If none of these PS Plus games take your fancy, why not check out which other free PS5 games you can play right now without spending a dime.
