We were all expecting March's free PlayStation Plus games to be announced today, but it seems like Sony's not quite ready to reveal its hand just yet. Writing on the PlayStation Blog, put upon SCEE staffer Fred Dutton explained that the organisation's still finalising some last minute details. "Sorry to keep you waiting, folks," the ever approachable employee apologised. "You'll have it as soon as possible."
When asked what's taking so long, the scribe continued that there's plenty of activity going on behind-the-scenes. "There are lots of moving parts – contracts to be signed, etc," he told a curious fan on Twitter. "We do our best to get you the news as soon as we can." If you figured that the firm was leaving things until the last minute, though, that's apparently not the case. "Arrangements are months in the making," Dutton said.
Unfortunately, the blog manager wouldn't offer any hints as to what the Instant Game Collection update will entail, but we do now know that Helldivers is out of the mix. The wait for the official reveal goes on, then...

Tomb Raider Ps4, also wont be one of them, according to a reply on a previus post.
Fred Dutton also said to me, via twitter that is safe to buy Borderlands 2 for Vita.
I was hopefull for Helldivers, looks great.
Price tag doesnt though!
Heres to hoping its a nice mixed bag again.
I hope there's some really cool stuff for PS4 this time around.
"There are lots of moving parts – contracts to be signed, etc," moving parts? I've just bought Knack too nooooooo!
I wonder what The Order will be?
WORMS!!
Out of games we got this month I have played Rogue Legacy the most. I have died about a million times but keep coming back for more.
I wonder if Ratchet & Clank Into the Nexus will ever be on PS Plus
Watch it be Far Cry 4... I know it's unlikely, but it'd be kinda neat.. Right? I honestly don't know what'll be on offer, but I'm sure it'll be something decent..
I reckon- and I'm not in any place to make an informed comment here- that Helldivers was going to be in the IGC, but they pulled out at the last minute. Or another game. Same thing. This is the first month in a while that I've had no idea what's coming, and I like that
@Splat I'm with you. It's actually the only one I've played so far. Love it though.
I have a feeling that La-Mulana EX will be a vita igc entry.
Rising Star games tweeted this this morning.
"Date announced tomorrow and it's really soon Keep an eye on PS Blog!"
My reasoning is it's an indie, but not in the spring sale...and they are late on announcing igc...and he says the date will be announced tomorrow on the PS blog and that the date is very soon.
@Splat same here, are you on new game plus yet? Disappointed about helldivers, but never played knack - is that likely?
@DHW that would be nice
@Splat man i thought only i died soooo many times haha.ive been playing it alot on my vita but die fast everytime :/
"the ever approachable employee apologised" only if the right questions are asked. During the big fuss over PS+ last summer or when people have complaints his replies are as rare as hens teeth.
Hurry the haters are impatient they are lurking ready to lay the smack down on them no matter what the choice is...
It will be funny if/when Knack does go on IGC, all the people that will be like "Yea i told you it would be!!" .. even tho its been the predicted game every month for almost the past year lol I am more interested in the PS3/Vita choices as they are what i spend more time playing than PS4.
I'll guess something like MGS:GZ as my 'If i say it every time eventually i will be right' choice.
All the games I want for the PS4 I have, I stopped caring about the PS3 when the PS4 was announced, and my vita doesn't do much except play cross save games. As much as I look forward to the IGC announcements, there really isn't anything that would please me, since we don't have a huge library of must haves on the PS4 yet.
