PS Plus Essential Announcement Next Week, Big Game for April 2026 Leaks

Just to clarify, the free games for PlayStation Plus Essential in April 2026 will be revealed next week, on Wednesday, April 1st.

April is a bit of an unusual month for PlayStation Plus. The first Tuesday – when the new Essential games are usually announced – doesn’t fall until April 7th. This means we’ll have to wait a little longer to find out which games are coming this month.

We’ve confirmed that Lords of the Fallen will be among the games released. We’ll announce the other two titles next week, so stay tuned!

A game that will be part of the April 2026 PlayStation Plus Essential selection has been revealed before its official announcement.

As expected, the leak comes from the trustworthy Dealabs. They say that the new Lords of the Fallen – the sequel, not the original game – will be the featured title in April’s game selection.

  • Lords of the Fallen (PS5) | Review

I first picked up this action RPG back in October 2023 on my PS5. It was alright when it launched, honestly, but it’s become so much better with all the big updates they’ve released since then. It really found its footing after those improvements!

Currently, Lords of the Fallen is highly praised as one of the top Soulslike games available. It’s a visually stunning dark fantasy adventure with challenging, satisfying combat and a unique feature that lets you switch between two different worlds.

We’re expecting to see the complete list of games coming in April 2026 revealed next Wednesday, April 1st. Along with Lords of the Fallen, two more games will be announced. You can find all the news and any leaks right here on Push Square!

Excited to see Lords of the Fallen as a free game on PS Plus Essential next month? Let us know what you think in the comments!
