April is swiftly coming to an end, but that does not mean that Sony is done with adding titles to the PlayStation Store which can be downloaded right now. From beloved action RPGs to interactive horror and everything in between, PlayStation has welcomed nine free games to its popular service, so if you are unsure what to play next, you are about to be spoiled for choice.

That is because the PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium titles for April 2026 have been rolled out, giving members the chance to get their hands on nine extra games as well as the ones already added earlier this month. Starting this week, the games will be available to download and play at no extra cost from today onward, so, without further ado, let us take a look at the new additions.

First up is both Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered (PS5) and Horizon Zero Dawn Complete Edition (PS4). Released in 2024, Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered does exactly what it says on the tin by allowing players to experience the hit 2017 RPG with stunning new visuals and improved performance. Alternatively, you could check out the Horizon Zero Dawn Complete Edition, which includes the base game as well as The Frozen Wilds DLC. If you are yet to experience Aloy's adventures, this is the perfect opportunity to do so.

However, if you are more of a sports fan, you can try The Crew Motorfest (PS4, PS5) and Football Manager 26 Console (PS5). Whether you want to race across the Hawaiian islands of O'ahu and Maui or step into the shoes of a football manager and experience all the trials and tribulations, these titles have you covered. The next titles available for PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium are:

Warriors: Abyss (PS4, PS5)
Squirrel with a Gun (PS5)
The Casting of Frank Stone (PS5)
Monster Train (PS5)
Wild Arms 4 (PS4, PS5)

The casting of frank stone main cast, including jaime

The Casting of Frank Stone comes from the creators of Until Dawn and The Quarry, offering another adventure in the interactive horror game style that the studio is known for. As for Squirrel with a Gun, you guessed it, you will take on the role of a squirrel with a gun in this "nutty" sandbox shooter and puzzle platformer. If you like roguelike deck-builders, you will love Monster Train, but Warriors: Abyss, by Koei Tecmo, will purely give you the roguelike experience with over 100 heroes to choose from. Last but not least, the PlayStation 2 classic Wild Arms 4 is available as part of PS Plus' Classics collection.
