PlayStation's new free games are best so far this year, fans agree

Yesterday, April’s extra and premium tier line-up was finally revealed and subscribers are all in agreement that it’s one of the strongest overall offerings this year.

Let’s take a moment to recap the month’s PlayStation Plus news so far. In case you missed it, all subscribers can now grab Sackboy: A Big Adventure, Tails of Iron, and day one release Meet Your Maker. If you have downloaded Sackboy, there’s a bunch of extra DLC that you can download for free from the PlayStation Store. If none of those titles are up your street though, the extra and premium tier drop has just added a further 16 games to the various catalogues.

Speaking of PlayStation, Horizon Forbidden West: Burning Shores releases next week. Take a look at the trailer below.

In case you missed it, Kena: Bridge of Spirits (PS4/5), Doom Eternal (PS4/5), Riders Republic (PS4/5), Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus (PS4), Slay The Spire (PS4), Monster Boy and the Cursed Kingdom (PS4/5), The Evil Within (PS4), Wolfenstein: The Old Blood (PS4), Bassmaster Fishing (PS4/5), Paradise Killer (PS4/5) and Sackboy: A Big Adventure (PS4/5) are joining the extra tier, while Doom (PS4), Doom II (PS4), Doom 64 (PS4), Doom 3 (PS4), and Dishonored: Definitive Edition (PS4) are joining the premium tier.

Over on Reddit, fans shared their thoughts on the stellar line-up. User G-H-O-S-T wrote, “So many games I always wanted but wasn’t ready to pay for,” while Brigid-Tenenbaum added, “Crazy month.” ShaneTVZ said, “Finally, me asking for Kena every month has finally paid off, another W month.”
