PlayStation Plus 3 April Free Games Leak, Including First-Party Hit

As always, PlayStation Plus' latest free game additions have partially leaked online.

Later today, April's Extra and Premium tier updates will be unveiled but ahead of then, billil-kun has shared three of the featured titles in advance via Dealabs.

April will see a PlayStation first-party hit join the Extra tier, and arguably the very best version of said game as Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered is one of your April headliners.

That'll land on the Extra tier next week joined by The Crew Motorfest and Football Manager 26 Console, so that's the racing and sports fans catered to.

It's About Time PlayStation Plus Gained Another First-Party Game

Horizon Zero Dawn perhaps needs no introduction, having gone on to become a pillar franchise for PlayStation since its debut in 2017.

It follows central character Aloy who inhabits a sprawling open-world, overrun by animal-like robots, many of which become plagued by a powerful corruption.

A sequel, Horizon Forbidden West, followed in 2022 with the hope being from fans that a third and final entry will land at some point.

In recent years, Guerrilla revisited its original entry with Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered which added some subtle visual enhancements. It's the definitive way to play the game, even if the base version did already look gorgeous.

As for The Crew Motorfest, that first landed in 2024 and is an open-world driving experience from Ubisoft.

There are over 20 themed campaigns players can get involved in, trying out everything from street racing to offroad racing to drifting.

The game performed well with critics upon release, landing a respectable score of 76 over on Metacritic. Is The Crew Motorfest one of the greatest games of all-time? Absolutely not, but you shouldn't find it too difficult to have a great time with it.

Football Manager 26 Console is the most self-explanatory game here. It's a tried and tested formula from SEGA, although this latest entry has struggled, failing to gel with both critics and players amid performance issues.

Various patches have been issued since launch, so perhaps now is the perfect time to try this one out given that it won't cost you a penny on PlayStation Plus.
