PlayStation Plus Game Catalog Gets 16 New Games In April

Sony has revealed the new titles being added to its PlayStation Plus Game Catalog on April 18, and if you’re a fan of Zelda-likes, punching Nazis, and extreme outdoor activities, there’s a lot to look forward to. Headlining the new selection for PS Plus Extra and Premium subscribers is Kena: Bridge of Spirits, 2022’s delightful action-adventure in which you take on shaman duties and grow a small tribe of adorable creatures to help you solve puzzles.

If you’d prefer something less wholesome and more unrelentingly violent, then Doom Eternal should quench your bloodlust. The follow-up to 2016’s Doom reboot, Doom Eternal dials up the action, carnage, and chainsaws to absurd levels as you battle against the forces of hell. Shifting gears, you can face even more demonic threats in Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus, as you guide BJ Blazkowicz on a mission to evict Nazis from the US of A.

There’s also Slay the Spire, which helped kickstart a whole new genre of rogue-like deckbuilding games, Ubisoft’s live service extreme sports game Rider’s Republic, and Tango Gameworks’ classic survival-horror game The Evil Within. For more relaxing pursuits, you’ll be able to download and play Bassmaster Fishing, Paradise Killer, and the charming Sackboy: A Big Adventure this month.

For PlayStation Premium subscribers, there aren’t any PS1 or PS2 games being added to the Classics library, but there is a whole lot Doom on the way. Doom, Doom II, Doom 64, and Doom 3 will be available this month, and for a more modern first-person adventure, you can add Dishonored: Definitive Edition to your collection as well. You can see more details on these games on the PS Blog.

In case you missed it, last month’s PS Plus Game Catalog added a number of big games to the library, including Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection, Ghostwire Tokyo, and Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot. There are still a few weeks left to claim games from the PS Plus collection on PS5 before that subscriber perk is removed on May 9, and on all tiers of PS Plus, the free games for April include Meet Your Maker, Sackboy: A Big Adventure, and Tails of Iron.
