Sony has announced an exciting lineup for PlayStation Plus Essential for April 2025, featuring RoboCop: Rogue City (PS5), The Texas Chain Saw Massacre (PS4, PS5), and Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth – Hacker’s Memory (PS4). These titles were revealed through a PlayStation.Blog post and will be available to subscribers at no extra cost starting April 1, until the next set of games arrives on May 5.
AnswerSee ResultsThe April 2025 lineup caters to a variety of gaming preferences. RoboCop: Rogue City, developed by Teyon and Nacon, is a standout title that immerses players in the role of Alex Murphy, the iconic cyborg cop, as he battles to restore order in a crime-ridden Detroit. This first-person shooter received a significant update in January of the previous year, introducing a New Game Plus mode. Our review at launch praised its authenticity and awarded it a 7/10.
For those seeking intense multiplayer action, The Texas Chain Saw Massacre by Sumo Digital and Gun Media offers an asymmetrical experience where players can either survive or hunt as part of the Slaughter Family. This game, which simulates the terror of being pursued by Leatherface, was described in our 6/10 review as providing "a few entertaining, technically challenged hours of fun."
To balance out the high-octane action, Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth – Hacker’s Memory from Bandai Namco offers a more relaxed experience. This 2018 release expands the digital world with over 320 Digimon to collect and a new perspective on the original Cyber Sleuth storyline.
As these titles become available next week, PlayStation Plus subscribers should not forget to download the March 2025 titles before they are replaced on March 31. The March lineup, including Dragon Age: The Veilguard, Sonic Colors: Ultimate, and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Cowabunga Collection, was particularly strong and worth adding to your library.
