Rumour: October PlayStation Plus PS4 Games Include Diablo III and Nioh

Swiggity swooty?

Diablo 3 maybe but i can't see Nioh being on it, of course if it is then that's awesome

Diablo 3 makes sense as it releases on Switch soon and Sony likes people taking notice if those games on Sony first - see Rime and Yooka-Lalee. But I think it would be the base game, sell the expansion dlc. Though honestly I have no idea if that's even possible.

Did they just announce Nioih 2? That's the only reason I could see it. Unless sales have literally fallen off a cliff. I would expect The Last Guardian and Nier Autmata first. But Diablo 3 I could see just for the Switch factor.

Oh wow, this would make me cancel my Switch preorder real quick! Tried the betas of Nioh and definitely not my type of game but would love diablo 3!

That being said the ps store has been super glitch for my last few days. Lots of incorrect prices/games showing free with plus things like that. Could be a glitch but hope it's true

I'd like this to be real if only to see the meltdowns from people who were going to buy Diablo full price on Switch

this can't be true right?

but then again ps plus games have been killer these last few months and don't forget that we got destiny 2 for free aswell this month.

nioh would be great!

These would be nice, it would be the first time there's games I don't already have. But I won't hold my breath.

Sweet, already have diablo 3 (of course) but I want to try nioh

@ShogunRok That would be hilarious

I would like this so so much! Why did you have to tease me like this?

@rjejr

That's basically why I'm interested, actually. With a Switch version coming soon, I'm pretty curious about Diablo III now.

@rjejr the whole business point of the PS+ games is to give you (old) base games and entice you to buy the DLC for it

I don't reckon that will happen. Great if it does though. Diablo 3 especially has been on my list for yonks. tried the Nioh demo back in the day, not really my thing though.

God damn I got super excited then before I read the word 'rumour'. Would love to play Nioh but I suck hard at DS style games so have never purchased it.

@manu0 I know, I just wasn't sure if the base Daiblo 3 game ever came out on PS4 or if it only came out on PS3 and PS4 only got the Eternal Collection. They can't give us something on PS+ that isn't there to give. ☺

Between Doom and Daiblo 3 I've kind of lost track. And I'm glad I didn't follow either of the Destiny fames b/c those expansions are ridiculous.

PS3 gets the base game but not the expansions on some of these, whole industry is insane.

I already own both, but great for those that don’t.

I need to play through Nioh before Nioh 2 releases next year. Crazy to think that there’s THREE AAA samurai games coming out next year (assuming that’s when Ghost releases).

@ShogunRok I still am - it's not a priority purchase for a different reason (namely, I haven't even finished 1 yet). But like with Rime, I'd likely add the IGC giveaway to my library just as a "don't mind if I do" thing.

There's also the whole habit of packing all DLCs with a fresh Switch release - something I don't recall being common on PS+.

Here's a thought, how about every once in a while giving out a T rated or lower AAA game for those poor teenagers who are paying allowance money towards PS+ who're getting nothing but online in their game for $60 a year. It might not effect me as much as a teenager, but I prefer less mature themes so all of these gorefests are a little much...

@Bliquid
There are the item drops in both, but Nioh closely resembles Dark Souls in a feudal Japan setting, whereas Diablo III is more of a top down dungeon crawler/hack and slasher.

@ShogunRok Why would there be a "meltdown" ???

I'm planning on getting it for Switch but if it comes to PS+ first then great, saved me a bit of money, anyone who's already determined to get it on Switch likely still would anyway.

Jeeez... if thats true i will not sleep in october.. The same month that will keep me busy with ac:odyssey and read dead 2 and i still not bought dragon quest xi.. guess ill rent out my bed untill november

No way. That'd be insane.

@ReanSchwarzer7 lol ok

More people to play diablo with would be great. Too bad the new season starts Friday.

I can see Diablo 3 be one, as @rjejr put it Sony do like to pre-empt upcoming Switch releases.

Nioh is published by Sony in the West, so it's not impossible.
Having said that Nioh is incredible and everyone should just buy it.

Yes please Sony!!

Aye go on, I'd like to see what the Diablo fuss is about. Have nioh in the drawer but if I get it on plus I'm hot footing it to cex!!

Diablo 3 a Blizzard game free,, LOL No way.

Diablo would be nice, never played it before.
I've got Nioh, and it is awesome!

Nioh would be amazing.

If confirmed, I would be happy with this line-up - even though I own Diablo 3 on Xbox...

I have both, but that would be another solid month.

Wow, that would be pretty awesome. Seems a little much with two big games like that in the same month. Of course we did get Bloodborne and Ratchet & Clank in the same month 🤔

That'd be a pretty incredible PS+ month. Although it'd be weird for Blizzard to agree to this, considering the Switch port of Diablo 3 releasing soon.

@rjejr Remember we had the same bit about Ys8... they pulled the trigger with Diablo3

yeah @E3

I would def go for some Diablo 3! My friend had it and we had some fun times playing with other friend...it was fun, but we didn't have much time!
So I would like to have it...pls?
Nioh I own already but I'm happy everyone else can play it!

@Agramonte I never did get YS 8, got DQXI instead.

Thanks for the Nioh 2 trailer. You have no idea how happy I am to have remembered something correctly, I was 50-50 on that one.

According to PSN, PS4 has the $15 Necromancer and the $60 Eternal Collection, which includes the Necromancer, so there is no reason for it to be there. So if they are including it with PS+, ti's probably the eternal collection which came out last June 2017, so it has been awhile.

Though if it turns out to be the $30 Reaper of Souls Edition on PS3 and Nioh on PS4, well I get to laugh at everyone, we have two PS3 and one PS4 set up. And you heard it here first.

For Nioh it would almost certainly be the $40 base edition so they could sell the $25 season pass. Though the bundle is only $50 so the season pass should only be $15 not $25 but that's how you make money I suppose.

@manu0 Win win for both companies thats for sure. 😁

@JohnKarnes We got a Activision game already. 😁

Nioh is the best game I've ever had the pleasure of playing on the PS4 so highly doubt we will be that lucky

02.10 Diablo 3 is coming out on NSW, there so no way they would shoot them self in a foot like that. This website becomes just another click bite fb spammer. Like your list off all ps games included with Playstation Classic.
