Sony has officially revealed the PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium game Catalog additions for April 2025—and it’s a strong month for subscribers, with Hogwarts Legacy finally joining the service alongside a few surprising day-one releases and cult classics.
Hogwarts Legacy Arrives on PS Plus
After months of speculation, Hogwarts Legacy is the big-ticket addition this month. Starting April 15, both PS4 and PS5 players will be able to download and dive into the magical open-world RPG set in the Wizarding World universe. Despite launching over a year ago, the game remains one of Warner Bros.’ most commercially successful titles, and its PS Plus debut is expected to reignite interest just ahead of the rumored summer content update.
Day-One Drop: Blue Prince
In a rare but welcome move, Blue Prince will launch day one into the PS Plus Extra catalog on April 10. Developed by indie studio Dogubomb, this narrative puzzle game has been turning heads during preview events thanks to its blend of architectural mystery and mind-bending level design. This is exactly the kind of experimental title that benefits from PS Plus visibility.
Other Highlights:
- EA Sports PGA Tour (PS5) – For fans of fairways and birdies, the latest golf sim from EA tees off on PS Plus April 10.
- Lost Records: Bloom & Rage – Tape 2 (PS5) – Don’t Nod’s follow-up chapter continues its emotionally charged narrative journey, available April 15.
- Battlefield 1 (PS4) – The 2016 WWI shooter returns, reminding everyone why it’s still one of DICE’s most atmospheric releases.
- PlateUp! (PS4/PS5) – The overcooked-inspired co-op roguelite cooking game makes its console debut on April 15.
PS Plus Premium – Classic Additions
Premium-tier subscribers aren’t left out either. Two fan-favorite titles from the PlayStation archives join the lineup:
- Alone in the Dark 2 (PS4/PS5) – Survival horror with a noir twist.
- War of the Monsters (PS4/PS5) – A cult brawler that drops kaiju-style mayhem right into your living room.
Final Thoughts
April 2025’s PS Plus Extra lineup hits a great balance of blockbuster appeal and indie curiosity. Whether you’re revisiting Hogwarts, going low under sniper fire in Battlefield 1, or coordinating chaos in a restaurant kitchen with PlateUp!, there’s something for every kind of player this month. With Blue Prince setting a new bar for day-one PS Plus releases, it’s clear Sony is doubling down on variety and value in 2025.
