Plus Yakuza 5, Patapon 3 and more for PS3 and PS Vita

Hello everyone, and welcome to your PlayStation Plus monthly games update for August. This month we look to satisfy your inner space pirate while exploring the depths of space, and let you battle it out with friends in a hilariously frenzied tower builder.

First up is Tricky Towers, a new title from WeirdBeard Games. This physics-based action puzzler is at its best when you’re competing against friends, with local and online multiplayer for two to four players. As you compete to build your own precarious tower, rivalries will come to the surface as you cast spells to disrupt your opponents and try to make them lose balance and send their towers crashing down. Be warned, it’s ridiculously addictive fun and could turn friends against each other as the fast-paced rounds stack up.

Next up is Rebel Galaxy. Suit up and take command in this space combat action game from developer Double Damage. Take the helm of a massive destroyer as you make your reputation through trade, by being a work-for-hire mercenary or a swashbuckling pirate. In a procedurally generated universe, no two star systems are the same and there’s always something new to discover. So take the helm, prepare for battle, and have a blast playing Rebel Galaxy.

Full lineup:

• Tricky Towers, PS4
  
• Rebel Galaxy, PS4
  
• Yakuza 5, PS3
  
• Retro/Grade, PS3
  
• Patapon 3, PS Vita
  
• Ultratron, PS Vita, PS3, PS4

So be sure to head to the PS Plus hub on your PS4 home screen and add these two fantastic games to your library. See you in-game and in the comments section below!

Cheers for the latest All-knowing Spec .  Rebel Galaxy is a plus for me, a bit quick for me now, but am hopeful I'll be able to give it a shake in the future.  Yakuza 5 and Patapon 3 also great games by all accounts, and if we're lucky there'll be a hidden gem or two amongst the others.

UPDATE: We would like to apologise for an error that lead to Retro/Grade being offered as one of this month’s free to download games on PS Plus.

We are aware that this title has previously been made available as part of the service in 2012 and had not intended to offer it again. We have now looked into and addressed this issue to ensure that it does not happen in the future.

To rectify this we are pleased to be able to offer an additional title for PS Plus members; Tom Clancy’s EndWar (PS3)from UbiSoft, which is now available to download immediately.

I recommend Endwar, it's good fun - it might be old, but it's original and entertaining, even if the UI can be a little tricky at times (deffo not bad enough to get in the way of gameplay).
