Which April 2025 PlayStation Plus game will you play first?
- RoboCop: Rogue City
- The Texas Chain Saw Massacre
- Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth – Hacker’s Memory
PlayStation Plus users will find that the April 2025 lineup offers something for everyone. RoboCop: Rogue City, developed by Teyon and Nacon, stands out as a major highlight. This first-person shooter immerses players in the role of Alex Murphy, tasked with saving a crime-ridden Detroit. A significant update in January of the previous year introduced a New Game Plus mode, adding more replay value. Our review at launch praised its nostalgic appeal, awarding it a 7/10.
For those craving intense multiplayer action, The Texas Chain Saw Massacre by Sumo Digital and Gun Media offers a thrilling asymmetrical experience. Players can choose to survive or hunt as members of the Slaughter Family, with gameplay that simulates the terror of facing Leatherface. While our 6/10 review noted some technical challenges, it also acknowledged the game's ability to deliver engaging hours of fun.
Rounding out the lineup, Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth – Hacker’s Memory from Bandai Namco provides a more relaxed gaming experience. This turn-based monster collector game, released in 2018, expands the digital world with over 320 Digimon to collect and explore, offering a fresh perspective on the original Cyber Sleuth narrative.
As these titles become available next week, players should not forget to download the March 2025 titles—Dragon Age: The Veilguard, Sonic Colors: Ultimate, and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Cowabunga Collection—before they are no longer available after March 31. This previous lineup was particularly strong, making it a great opportunity for both subscribers and those considering a subscription to add these games to their library.
