Aug 18, 2016 11:14 AM EDT

We are now in the middle of August, and it means PlayStation Plus members only have less than 15 days to enjoy this month's free games.  For the month of September, it is rumored that Sony will offer Watch Dogs, Portal 2 or FIFA 14.  Now, here's the latest round-up of update about PlayStation Plus Free games for August. We'll also give predictions for September 2016 free games.

Recent reports suggest Sony's premium gaming service will open the Christmas season with a huge surprise. It is rumored that PlayStation Plus members will have a chance to play one or two AAA titles and a bunch of indie releases.

Chatt Sports Net hints Watch Dogs could be included in September 2016 Free Games. The publication claims it would be a "good move" to offer the series' first game as a way to promote the Watch Dogs 2, which will be released on Nov. 15, 2016.

A review from IGN says the first Watch Dogs is a great open-world action game blended with unique hacking-magic mechanics. Also, it has a wide variety of missions that gamers will really love.

Valve's Portal 2 might also become a PlayStation Plus free game next month. This 2011 title has a concise story partnered with inventive first-person puzzle mechanic that really challenges players to become creative. The game also boasts a large cast of characters, entertaining story and imaginative art style. It has been five years since Portal 2 was released, so it is not surprising if Sony offers the game for free on September.

Last June, Sony offered NBA 2k14 to PlayStation Plus members. Many were surprised when the company included the AAA title in the premium gaming service. For September, it is rumored that the service might provide another AAA sports title. Several tech websites predict FIFA 14 will be included in PlayStation Plus September 2016 free games.

The forthcoming FIFA 17 might not be a big leap from FIFA 14. The major difference between the two is in graphics and animations department. Nevertheless, it is still good if avid football fans will have a chance to play the series' 2014 version.

While waiting for PlayStation Plus lineup on September 2016, members can still access the service's August 2016 titles. This month's free games are listed below, courtesy of PlayStation Blog.
