It’s finally here.
After a longer-than-usual wait, Sony has officially revealed the PlayStation Plus April 2026 monthly games lineup, and it’s a pretty interesting mix.
From a legendary ‘90s classic, to a refined Souls like experience, and a fast-paced anime co-op game, this month offers something for a wide range of players.
All three titles will be available to download starting Tuesday, April 7, and once claimed, they’re yours to keep as long as your PS Plus subscription remains active.
Let’s break down what you’re getting this month.
Tomb Raider I–III Remastered | PS5, PS4

Kicking things off is a true classic.
Tomb Raider I–III Remastered brings back the original trilogy that helped define gaming in the ‘90s. You step into the boots of Lara Croft as she travels across the globe in search of powerful artifacts.
This remastered collection modernizes the visuals while still keeping the original gameplay intact. And if you’re feeling nostalgic, you can instantly switch back to the classic polygonal graphics at any time.
If you enjoy puzzle-platformers with a mix of exploration and action, this is a must-play.
Lords of the Fallen | PS5

Next up is Lords of the Fallen, and this isn’t the same game people remember from launch.
Thanks to over 50 updates, the game has evolved into what many are now calling Lords of the Fallen 2.0 — a much more refined and enjoyable experience.
At its core, it’s a Souls like RPG where you play as a dark crusader trying to stop an evil god. However, what makes it stand out is its dual-world mechanic, allowing you to shift between the living world and the realm of the dead.
Expect around 30 hours to complete, and much longer if you’re aiming for full completion.
Sword Art Online: Fractured Daydream | PS5

Rounding out the lineup is Sword Art Online: Fractured Daydream, a live-service, co-op focused experience.
In this game, teams of four players compete against other squads in a competitive PvE format. Instead of fighting each other, you’re racing to defeat enemies, collect loot, and score the most points.
While reviews place it around a 7/10, it can still be a fun pick for fans of the series or players who enjoy co-op gameplay.
Final Thoughts
Overall, April’s PS Plus lineup delivers a solid mix of old and new.
It might not be the biggest lineup ever, but there’s definitely value here — especially if you enjoy variety. If you enjoyed the breakdown, drop a comment and let me know which game you’re downloading first
Until then, happy gaming.
