Sony has officially announced its PS Plus Essential monthly games for April 2026.
We already knew about two of them, as they were leaked several days before the company made its proper announcement.
The pair of games, along with the rest of next month's complimentary games, will be available to claim starting Tuesday 7th April 2026. Here they all are:
- Lords of the Fallen (PS5) | Review
- Sword Art Online Fractured Daydream (PS5)
- Tomb Raider 1-3 Remastered (PS5, PS4) | Review

Lords of the Fallen is probably the most exciting addition this time around — a very solid Soulslike action RPG with some unique ideas. Developer CI Games has been updating it a lot since its launch in 2023, so even if you weren't keen back then, it could be worth a revisit.
Based on the anime, Sword Art Online Fractured Daydream is a game with both a single player campaign and online multiplayer components. If you enjoy hack-and-slash action RPGs, or you're already a fan of the series, this will definitely be worth checking out.
Tomb Raider hardly needs an introduction. 1-3 Remastered does what it says on the tin, reviving the original trilogy on modern hardware with revamped visuals, new features, and modernised controls.
All these games are available to PS Plus members on any tier, but you'll need to claim them by 5th May 2026, as that's when they'll be replaced.
