PlayStation Plus subscribers to the Extra and Premium tiers will see an update to the monthly lineup next month, meaning ten games will be removed from the service in April 2023. Sony updates the PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium library every month, adding new games for users while removing others. For March, Sony added some popular titles to the service, including Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection, Rainbow Six Extraction, Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot, and Immortals Fenyx Rising. At the same time, however, nine games were removed from the service, including The Vanishing of Ethan Carter, Dungeons 2, and Ghost of a Tale.
In April 2023, PlayStation Plus Extra members will lose access to ten more games, as confirmed by Push Square. The list of games leaving the service includes 2Dark, 428: Shibuya Scramble, Croixleur Sigma, Gabbuchi, Marvel Puzzle Quest: Dark Reign, Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 4, Steins;Gate Elite, The Caligula Effect: Overdose, The Wonderful 101: Remastered and Zanki Zero: Last Beginning. Although the exact date when these games will be removed from the service is unknown, they usually leave the service in the middle of the month. Also, it seems that some of these games will only be removed for players in Europe, while the rest of the list applies to all regions.
It’s important to note that when games are removed from the PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium Libraries, members lose access to them entirely, unlike the free monthly games, which remain in a user’s collection as long as they are subscribed . The Wonderful 101: Remastered and Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 4 are among the major games leaving the service next month. It will be interesting to see what games Sony will replace them with.
Sony hasn’t announced the free monthly games for April 2023 yet, but that information is usually leaked ahead of the official announcement. March was an exception, however, as Sony revealed that Battlefield 2042, Code Vein and Minecraft Dungeons would be coming to all PS Plus tiers in February’s State of Play event. The addition of Battlefield 2042 to PS Plus has resulted in a significant increase in the number of active players, with over 500% more users playing the game since its inception.
In summary, PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium members will lose access to ten games in April 2023 as part of Sony’s monthly lineup refresh. While this can be disappointing for those who enjoy these titles, it’s common for the library to be updated regularly, with new games being added and older ones removed. It is worth noting that if members are removed from the service, they will lose access to games entirely. So it’s important to take advantage of them while they’re available. It will be interesting to see what games Sony adds to the service in April to replace those that are leaving, and subscribers should keep an eye out for the leaked list of free monthly games before the official announcement.
