Welcome back once again to our monthly column dedicated to video games available for free. Every month, thanks to some subscription services and company initiatives, so many titles are given away.
With all these free video games, however, there is always a risk of not being able to redeem someone in time. For this reason we have decided to write this article, in which we will tell you about the many free games offered in August by the various monthly subscription services and more.
Many of the games we will talk about in this article will be free throughout August, but others will only during a certain period. For this reason, we recommend that you redeem the titles that interest you as soon as possible, so as to avoid unpleasant situations.
Also we remind you once again that to download most of the free games we will tell you about you will need to have the right subscription. Fortunately, however, many of these services have a free trial period which in some cases you can use to redeem the games that interest you.
As always, we start our list with the Playstation plus, the subscription service of Sony. As you know by now, the PlayStation Plus offers many advantages, such as the ability to play online on PS4 / PS5 and to load saves in the cloud, but it also allows you to redeem three free titles per month. Here are the free games available in August with the service:
This month some players may find the games offered by the service a little underwhelming, but there are potentially interesting titles on the list anyway. Eg Hunter’s Arena Legends it’s a new one battle royale just published and could be a lot of fun for lovers of the genre. Furthermore, Plants vs. Zombies and Tennis World Tour 2 are not bad at all and lend themselves perfectly to some quick games in single or multiplayer.
Now it’s up toXbox Live Gold, the counterpart Microsoft of the PlayStation Plus. The games we will talk about are part of the program Games with Gold and are updated on a monthly basis. Be careful though, because some of these titles will be available only for some platforms and during specific periods. Here is the list of Games with Gold flanked by the platform and the period in which they will be available:
Surprisingly in August, Microsoft offers its subscribers gods really good titles that suit all tastes. For example, action game lovers will certainly appreciate it Darksiders 3, while those who prefer platformers can have fun with Yooka-Laylee. We also suggest you take a look at Lost Planet 3, a fun TPS full of monsters to face and mechas to pilot.
We still stay at Microsoft to talk aboutXbox Game Pass. At the moment the stock of titles of the service is very large and, on a monthly basis, is enriched with new games. Usually several quality titles arrive every month and also this time the company was not far behind. Here is the list of new free games added to the service in August alongside the platform and the period in which they will be available:

Here is the list of free games added to the service in August:
This time the PlayStation Now will offer its subscribers 3 truly exceptional titles. NieR Automata is a branded action game Platinum Games which deals with several very particular themes. Also Ghostrunner it is a great action game, but it is distinguished by a much more frenetic pace and a more technical gameplay than that of the game of Yoko Taro. Undertale instead it is the eccentric and very famous RPG of Toby Fox and, in case you have never had the opportunity to try it, we strongly suggest you play it.
Let’s talk now about Stadia, the Google streaming gaming platform. While you don’t need a subscription to use Stadia, you get even more benefits with your pro subscription. including many new titles every month. The new free games available in August are:

Also if you are a lover of the card games we suggest you take a look at Nowhere Prophet, a great hybrid between deckbuilder and roguelite.
Finally, we conclude our article as usual with the titles of Twitch Prime, Amazon’s subscription service. Usually the platform always offers a lot of free games and even in August we were not disappointed with the quantity. Here are the 8 games available for free with this month’s subscription:
