Sony recently added a free trial for one of the most controversial games of 2024 to PlayStation Plus Premium, meaning members of the service can give Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League a shot without having to spend a single extra penny. Though some may have preferred a more well-received game to be added instead, trials like these allow PlayStation Plus players to test out divisive games and make judgments for themselves on titles they may not have touched otherwise.
PS Plus Extra and Premium Add 14 Games Today

The PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium catalog is expanding to include 14 new games today. The April 2024 additions to PS Plus even include one day-one release.
Sony's subscription catalog typically rotates its contents on the third Tuesday of each month. The previous such change saw PS Plus Extra and Premium add 13 new games on March 19.
Another 14 games are coming to Sony's on-demand library later today, April 16. The new arrivals that will be available across both PS Plus tiers have already been announced a week in advance, as is tradition. There are 11 of those titles in total, with the list being headlined by Dave the Diver, which is the only day-one release from this first spring 2024 batch. Developed by South Korean studio Mintrocket, the Unity engine-powered game is a curious genre hybrid combining management sim elements with action-adventure gameplay. The PlayStation port of Dave the Diver is ten months behind the original PC version of the game.

As for the April 2024 additions to the platform's Classics Catalog, there are three of them this time around. The least surprising of the new PS Plus Premium-exclusive classic releases is MediEvil, not least because its arrival has already been inferred from some recently revised PlayStation Store trophies. Following this catalog update, both the 1998 action adventure and its 2019 remake will be available to play with a PS Plus Premium membership.
The oldest title from the newest batch of classics is Star Wars: Rebel Assault 2: The Hidden Empire, LucasArts' 1995 rail shooter which was ported to the PS1 by German developer Factor 5. PS Plus Premium members will also be able to play Alone in the Dark: The New Nightmare starting today. Originally released in 2001, this is the fourth mainline entry in the cult-classic survival horror franchise, as well as the first to have ever made it to a Sony console. Based on aggregate review scores, The New Nightmare remains the most critically acclaimed PlayStation game in the series.
The next bit of news concerning Sony's subscription service is expected to arrive on April 24; the last Wednesday of each month is normally when the company announces the following batch of free PS Plus games for the month ahead.
