April just got a whole lot more exciting for PlayStation Plus subscribers! Sony has officially revealed the PS Plus Essential lineup for April 2026, and it’s a triple threat that covers dark fantasy, classic adventure, and anime action all in one drop. Starting April 7, members can dive into Lords of the Fallen, a sprawling soulslike epic where you’ll battle through the realms of the living and the dead to dethrone a demonic god. Joining it is the beloved Tomb Raider I–III Remastered, bringing Lara Croft’s legendary first three adventures back with upgraded visuals, all expansions, and a brand-new Challenge Mode. And rounding out the pack is Sword Art Online: Fractured Daydream, a co-op action brawler that lets you team up with up to 20 players for massive raid boss battles. You have until May 4 to claim all three, so let’s break down what’s waiting for you.

Lords of the Fallen

After an age of the cruellest tyranny, the demon God, Adyr, was finally defeated. But Gods… do not fall forever. Now, aeons later, Adyr’s resurrection draws nigh. As one of the fabled Dark Crusaders, journey through both the realms of the living and the dead in this expansive RPG experience, featuring colossal boss battles, fast challenging combat, thrilling character encounters, and deep, immersive storytelling. Will your legend be one of light… or one of darkness?

Dare to Hope.
