New PS5 and PS4 games coming in September 2021
It’s a surprisingly busy month for PlayStation gamers. Looking ahead to September, there are multiple PlayStation exclusives, and quite a few intriguing games coming to the PS4 and PS5.
One of the most anticipated games is easily Deathloop. This PS5 exclusive (also coming to PC) is developed by Bethesda’s Arkane Studios — the talented developers behind the Dishonored series. In Deathloop, you play as Colt, an assassin who is stuck in a time loop on the mysterious island of Blackreef. Hunted by the island’s inhabitants and a rival assassin (Julianna), you must find a way to take out eight key targets and put an end to the timeloop that’s resulting in this endless cycle. If you fail, learn from our mistakes and try again, trying a new path and approach.
Deathloop is likely the final PlayStation 5 exclusive from Bethesda, which was recently acquired by Microsoft. It stayed a PS5-exclusive due to the contract in place, but other upcoming Bethesda’s titles, like Starfield and Elder Scrolls VI, will almost certainly have some sort of Xbox exclusivity.
Death Stranding Director’s Cut is another PS5 exclusive coming in September. A re-release of Hideo Kojima’s mind-bending action-adventure starring Norman Reedus, the Director’s Cut is the “definitive experience” with new content and enhanced gameplay features. There are new weapons, equipment and vehicles, as well as new modes, missions and areas to explore. There are also new online features such as Friend Play and Leaderboards.
