PlayStation Plus September 2026 delivers a broad Game Catalog refresh led by RuneScape: Dragonwilds, WWE 2K26, Ball x Pit and Date Everything. Sony says most of the new Extra and Premium titles arrive on September 15, although several games use different regional or later release dates.
When do the September PlayStation Plus games arrive?
The main PlayStation Plus Game Catalog lineup becomes playable on September 15, 2026. This list is for the Extra and Premium tiers, not the separate monthly Essential games. Availability can differ by country, so subscribers should confirm each title on the PlayStation Store before downloading.
1. RuneScape: Dragonwilds
RuneScape: Dragonwilds brings cooperative survival to Ashenfall, a forgotten continent where dragons have awakened. Players gather resources, build bases, develop skills and learn spells before confronting the Dragon Queen. It is the headline pick for players who want a long-form fantasy adventure with crafting and group progression.
2. WWE 2K26
WWE 2K26 is the major sports addition. It mixes current Superstars with Legends from the Attitude Era and offers several ways to create matches, stories and custom wrestlers. Its inclusion gives wrestling fans a full-sized release rather than a short trial.
3. Ball x Pit
Ball x Pit combines fast roguelite runs with fantasy projectiles, hero recruitment and rebuilding. The September catalog announcement lists a September 22 release in the United States, United Kingdom and Japan, so it will not appear with every September 15 addition.
4. Date Everything!
Date Everything! turns ordinary household objects into voiced characters through magical glasses called Dateviators. It blends comedy, relationships and branching conversations. Sony lists it for September 9 in the US and UK and September 10 in Japan, making it an early arrival in the month’s lineup.
5. Slitterhead
Slitterhead is a darker action-adventure set in the crowded streets of Kowlong. Players control a bodiless entity that can possess allies while hunting monsters disguised as humans. Its blood-powered combat and mystery-driven structure make it one of the catalog’s more unusual choices. It arrives September 22 in listed regions.
6. Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound
Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound joins classic side-scrolling ideas with modern action design. Kenji Mozu defends Hayabusa Village after the barrier between human and demon worlds breaks. Sony schedules the PS5 and PS4 versions for September 29.
7. Dungeons of Hinterberg
Dungeons of Hinterberg mixes exploration in the Austrian Alps with puzzle-filled dungeons, magic and friendships. Days are spent skiing, climbing and fighting; evenings build relationships in town. It also arrives on September 29.
8. Sniper Elite: Resistance
Sniper Elite: Resistance follows SOE agent Harry Hawker through occupied France. The campaign supports cooperative play and gives players multiple infiltration and extraction routes. It is another September 29 catalog addition for PS5 and PS4.
9. Mega Man X Command Mission
Premium subscribers receive Mega Man X Command Mission, a turn-based RPG featuring X, Axl and Zero across more than 50 missions. Its team combat and side quests make it a strong archival addition for players who missed the original release.
10. Metro Redux
Metro Redux also joins the Premium classics collection. The post-apocalyptic package follows Artyom through Moscow’s underground stations and the dangerous surface. This is a useful option for subscribers who prefer atmospheric first-person campaigns.
Which PlayStation Plus September 2026 games should you play first?
Start with RuneScape: Dragonwilds for cooperative survival, WWE 2K26 for sports and customization, or Slitterhead for something experimental. Ball x Pit is ideal for short repeatable runs, while Metro Redux and Mega Man X Command Mission add proven single-player experiences.
