Sony has unveiled an exciting lineup of PlayStation Plus Essential titles for April 2025, featuring RoboCop: Rogue City (PS5), The Texas Chain Saw Massacre (PS4, PS5), and Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth – Hacker’s Memory (PS4). These titles were announced in a recent PlayStation.Blog post, and they will be accessible to subscribers of the Essential tier without any extra cost from April 1 until the next update on May 5.
The April 2025 selection caters to a variety of gaming tastes. RoboCop: Rogue City, developed by Teyon and Nacon, is a standout title that immerses players in the role of Alex Murphy, fighting crime in a dystopian Detroit. This first-person shooter received a significant update in January of the previous year, introducing a New Game Plus mode, and earned a commendable 7/10 in our review at launch.
For those seeking a thrilling multiplayer experience, The Texas Chain Saw Massacre by Sumo Digital and Gun Media offers an asymmetrical horror game where players can either survive or hunt as part of the Slaughter Family. This game, which simulates the terror of being pursued by Leatherface, was rated 6/10 in our initial review, praised for its intense, albeit technically challenging, gameplay.
Rounding out the lineup, Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth – Hacker’s Memory from Bandai Namco provides a more relaxed pace with its turn-based RPG mechanics. This game expands the universe of digital monsters, offering over 320 Digimon to collect and a fresh perspective on the original Cyber Sleuth storyline.
As these new titles become available, PlayStation Plus subscribers should not forget to download the March 2025 titles, including Dragon Age: The Veilguard, Sonic Colors: Ultimate, and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Cowabunga Collection, before they are replaced on March 31. Whether you're a current subscriber or considering joining, this is a great opportunity to enrich your gaming library with diverse and engaging titles.
