PlayStation Plus subscribers can dive into a thrilling mix of genres with the April 2025 lineup. Headlining the month is RoboCop: Rogue City, developed by Teyon and Nacon, which offers a nostalgic trip back to the '80s with its first-person shooter gameplay. Players take on the role of Alex Murphy, tasked with saving a crime-ridden Detroit. A significant update in January of last year introduced a New Game Plus mode, enhancing replay value. Our review at launch awarded it a 7/10, praising its engaging story mode.
For those craving intense multiplayer action, The Texas Chain Saw Massacre from Sumo Digital and Gun Media provides an asymmetrical horror experience. Players can choose to survive or hunt as part of the Slaughter Family, with the chilling sound of Leatherface's chainsaw adding to the tension. Our initial review scored it a 6/10, noting its potential for fun despite some technical challenges.
To balance the adrenaline rush, Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth – Hacker’s Memory from Bandai Namco offers a more relaxed pace with its turn-based gameplay. This 2018 release expands the universe with over 320 Digimon to collect and 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 before they expire on March 31. The March lineup, including Dragon Age: The Veilguard, Sonic Colors: Ultimate, and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Cowabunga Collection, was particularly strong and offers great value for both subscribers and those considering a subscription.
