This April brings a mix of dark action RPG, classic adventures, and fast-paced anime-style co-op action. The new games will be available starting Tuesday, April 7, 2026, and remain accessible through Monday, May 4, 2026. Here’s a quick overview of the highlights.

Lords of the Fallen (PS5)

With Lords of the Fallen, April delivers a challenging action RPG experience. You step into the role of a dark crusader facing the resurrected demon god Adyr. The world is significantly larger than its predecessor and seamlessly connects the realm of the living with that of the dead—allowing you to switch between them on the fly.

Expect intense boss fights, a demanding combat system, and deep customization options. Choose from nine starting classes and shape your playstyle with hundreds of weapons and gear combinations.

Tomb Raider I–III Remastered (PS4, PS5)

Tomb Raider I–III Remastered brings back Lara Croft’s first three adventures in an updated package—including all expansions and secret levels.

The collection features modernized visuals but lets you switch back to the classic polygon look at any time. There’s also a new challenge mode, where you replay familiar levels with modifiers and tackle unique objectives. Completing them unlocks new outfits that even impact Lara’s abilities.

Sword Art Online: Fractured Daydream (PS5)

Anime fans can look forward to Sword Art Online: Fractured Daydream. A new “Galaxia” system in Alfheim Online causes time and space to fracture, forcing Kirito to team up with both old allies and former enemies.

The focus is clearly on co-op gameplay: up to 20 players can form five squads of four to take down challenging raid bosses. In total, 21 characters from the SAO universe are available, each with a distinct role in the team.

Last Chance: Grab March’s Games

If you haven’t added March’s titles to your library yet, now’s the time. Until Monday, April 6, 2026, you can still claim:

  • PGA Tour 2K25
  • Monster Hunter Rise
  • Slime Rancher 2
  • The Elder Scrolls Online Collection: Gold Road

at no extra cost. After that, they’ll rotate out of the lineup.
