Sony normally announces the next game list for its PS Plus program toward the end of the month, so predictions for the upcoming August list are already making their rounds online. Speculations suggest that "Yakuza 5," as well as other triple-A titles, may be included on the list.

According to The Bitbag, fans are looking forward to "Yakuza 5" as being one of the included games in the August lineup for PS Plus. Reportedly, the game may have been inadvertently included in the PS Plus list for July, and was available early in the month. The game has been taken down since, although some of the fans have already downloaded the title for free. "Yakuza 5" is now included in the PS Store for $40. While the price tag may be a bit pricey, it is understandable given that "Yakuza 5" can still be considered a recent release, coming out just last year for the PS3.

Aside from "Yakuza 5," other triple-A titles are also expected to appear as part of the August lineup. The mix of classics and original franchises seem to be the trend among fan favorites, since fans expect games like "The Evil Within," "Resident Evil," and "God of War 3" to make the cut. These franchises are confirmed to have follow-ups coming out soon.

Meanwhile, since the July list is still active, players can still download the free games included in the lineup, such as "Furi" and "Saints Row: Gat Out of Hell" for the PlayStation 4; "Fat Princess" and "Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood" for the PS3; and "Prince of Persia: Revelation" and "Oreshika: Tainted Bloodlines" for the PS Vita.

Sony has yet to come out with the confirmed lineup for next month, though fans and observers expect the August games list to roll out any time within the week.
