PlayStation Plus April free games lineup off to a shaky start

We don’t yet know the line-up for April’s PlayStation Plus update, however, we’ve had a glimpse of what will be leaving the subscription catalogue, and some absolute bangers will be departing.

Based on the Japanese PlayStation Plus subscription pages, several games will be leaving the service - and usually what happens on that store tends to be emulated around the world.

Tales of Kenzera: ZAU is one of the many games leaving PS+ in April.

A very helpful Redditor has posted the selection of games leaving PS+ and it’s safe to say that if you haven’t played some of these, you need to rectify that now.

The list features: Animal Well, Tales of Kenzera: Zau, Nour: Play With Your Food, Deliver Us Mars, Miasma Chronicles, Stray Blade, Kena: Bridge of Spirits, and Slay The Spire.

I shouldn’t need to tell you how brilliant Slay the Spire is, or Animal Well, for that matter. Both of these indies are just superb.

It’s a shame when any titles have to exit PlayStation Plus, but this collection will leave a massive hole.

“Oh damn, some pretty good titles here,” said TopRaise7.

If any of these were on your radar, you’ve got the rest of March to take advantage of them.

As one Redditor will be doing. They say, “This post is what decides what I'll play for half of the month, every month.”

It’s not going unnoticed just how good these games are, with Flottrooster agreeing, “Holy s**t, these are bangers. F**king hell. Well, I know what I'm playing this month.”

I’d say you shouldn’t sleep on any of these games, but Animal Well was easily one of my games of the year. It astounded me that such an atmospheric and engaging game could come out of a simple pixel design.

Savassassin agrees, saying, “Everyone play Animal Well! It’s one of the best games I’ve played,” so maybe just play that if you don’t have time for them all.
