Insider reports from billbil-kun at Dealabs have once again revealed the upcoming free games for PlayStation Plus members. The April lineup features Hood: Outlaws & Legends for both PS4 and PS5, Beat the Spire for PS4, and SpongeBob SquarePants: Battle for Bikini Bottom – Rehydrated for PS4. This early peek aligns with Sony’s traditional cadence of announcing the monthly freebies ahead of the official reveal. A note from observers is that, given the PS Store closure in Russia, players in certain regions may not be able to acquire these titles when the changeover happens.
As industry coverage suggests, Sony is expected to unveil more details during the next State of Play event, slated for next week. The rumors point to several major announcements on the horizon, including the potential debut of a new subscription tier codenamed Spartacus. While Sony has not confirmed these specifics, the timing fits the pattern of quarterly previews that accompany platform changes and service reconfigurations. The anticipation among fans is palpable, with many hoping for clarity on subscription options, game catalog, and any integration with existing PlayStation services. (Source note: Insider Gaming)
