PlayStation has officially revealed the PlayStation Plus free games lineup for September, and it's a little bit different from what we saw in the leak yesterday. In fact, the leak from yesterday was accurate, but it was showing the PS Plus games for Europe. The PlayStation Plus lineup in the US is a bit different, but the main attraction is still here, so don't worry.

We'll kick things off with the PlayStation 4 games, followed by the PS3 games, and conclude with the Vita games, which are cross-buy. Before we get to that, though, there's actually a PlayStation VR bonus included in this month's lineup! If you own a PS VR and have been waiting for some PS Plus love, here you go:

"Here's a bonus for PlayStation VR owners: PS Plus members in the US and Canada will also get RIGS Mechanized Combat League as a free bonus game from September 5 through November 7. RIGS is a first-person arena-based shooter developed from the ground up for PS VR. Set in the year 2065, it immerses players in an intense, all-action future sport that mixes elements from different athletic fields like combat sports, motorsports, basketball and football."

Onto your PS4 games!
