In a significant update for gamers, Sony has announced that Lords of the Fallen will be available to PlayStation Plus subscribers starting April 7, 2026, and will remain accessible until May 5, 2026. This action-RPG, developed by Hexworks and published by CI Games, is a sequel to the original title released in 2014 and has been a topic of discussion since its launch in October 2023.
Despite its promising premise, Lords of the Fallen has faced challenges in the market, having not turned a profit after 18 months on sale as of April 2025. Critics have noted the game’s struggle to capture the elegance of its genre, with Eurogamer commenting, “Missing the elegance of FromSoftware, Lords of the Fallen is let down by Soulslike clichés and performance woes.” This mixed reception adds an intriguing layer to its inclusion in the PS Plus lineup.
As of now, Sony has yet to announce the complete roster of games for April 2026, leaving fans eager for more information. Historically, the company has added three games to PS Plus each month, but in a recent shift, they increased the offerings to four in February and March 2026. This change has raised expectations for the upcoming month.
March 2026’s free games included popular titles such as PGA Tour 2K25, Monster Hunter Rise, Slime Rancher 2, and The Elder Scrolls Online Collection: Gold Road, setting a high bar for the next lineup. The anticipation surrounding the April offerings is palpable, especially with Lords of the Fallen positioned as the centerpiece.
As the gaming community awaits further announcements, many are left wondering what other titles will join Lords of the Fallen in the PS Plus lineup. Will Sony maintain the trend of offering four games, or will they revert to three? Details remain unconfirmed, and fans are keen to see how this month unfolds.
