SIGNALIS is a survival horror game for PS4 set in a dystopian future, where a humanoid android named Elster searches for her missing partner Yang. It is included in the PlayStation Plus free games lineup for August 2026, available to subscribers from August 4 through August 31.
SIGNALIS appears in the PlayStation Plus free games lineup for August 2026, one of three titles offered to subscribers. Sony announced the lineup on July 29, and the games became available on August 4. The game is described as a survival horror title for PS4, set in a dystopian future where a humanoid android named Elster searches for her missing partner Yang.
The August lineup also includes Dying Light 2 Stay Human and Big Walk, but SIGNALIS stands apart as the only horror entry. Its inclusion gives subscribers a stylized pixel adventure alongside the larger action RPG and the cooperative puzzle game. The titles remain available until August 31, and adding them to a library keeps them playable while the subscription stays active.
Coverage of SIGNALIS in this lineup is consistent across both stories, with no conflicting details. The game's role is straightforward: it is one of three monthly free games, with no additional announcements or updates tied to it beyond the PlayStation Plus distribution.
