- Featured Game: Persona 5 Tactica offers a unique grid-based tactical experience inspired by its predecessors.

On Wednesday, Sony rolled out its September Game Catalog additions for PS Plus subscribers. This month’s entries run the gamut from turn-based tactics to survival horror and pro wrestling.
Persona 5 Tactica (PS5/ PS4) may be the most critically acclaimed title in the batch. The 2023 Persona spinoff takes the mainline games’ battles and shifts them into grid-based tactics. Think XCOM with Phantom Thieves.
The Invincible (PS5) is an adaptation of the 1963 sci-fi novel by Stanisław Lem. As its inspiration may suggest, this isn’t an action-heavy combat-fest. Instead, the narrative adventure invites you to explore the planet Regis III, searching for lost crew members. Your decisions will shape the story, so tread carefully.
If exploring lost worlds as an astrobiologist isn’t your thing, then maybe pile drivers and elbow drops are. (No judgment!) WWE 2K25 (PS5 / PS4) is also on this month’s list, letting you step into the ring as a steroid-infused behemoth. You can take satisfaction in knowing your video game match’s outcomes are less pre-determined than the scripted matches you see on TV.
Other games in this month’s entries include the action RPG title Fate / Samurai Remnant, the survival horror game Crow Country, and the first-person survival sim Green Hell. You can check out the PlayStation Blog’s announcement for all the details.
