The beginning of each month is eagerly anticipated by gamers, and for good reason: PlayStation console owners regularly receive a wonderful gift. Sony offers several free games to PlayStation Plus subscribers. It’s a great deal that has allowed players to rediscover titles like RoboCop: Rogue City, Hollow Knight: Voidheart Edition, Stray, Diablo IV, Lies of P, Call of Duty Black Ops IV, or NBA 2K24, all offered at some point by Sony to PS+ members.
Last March, Sony treated both casual and hardcore gamers to PGA Tour 2K25, the latest edition of the essential golf game. We then set out on a monster-hunting quest inspired by Japanese folklore, with Monster Hunter Rise. Sony also offered Slime Rancher 2, a bright, quirky adventure and life-simulation game about extraterrestrial life. The lineup wrapped up with a perennial license: The Elder Scrolls Online Collection: Gold Road.
And this month, what does PS Plus have in store for us? For this capricious April, Sony is ready to entertain with three must-play titles. This month, we play Lords of the Fallen, a dark fantasy action-RPG that drops us into a crusade against the gods. Next up, a nod to the classics: enjoy the remastered version of Tomb Raider I - III and step into Lara Croft’s adventuring shoes. We keep the momentum with the action in the co-op Sword Art Online Fractured Daydream. Grab your controllers!
