PlayStation Plus Free Games For April 2016 Announced

The PlayStation Plus games for April have officially been announced, and PS4 owners are in for a treat.  

First up is Dead Star, an arcade-space-shooter-RPG from Armature Studios — a studio founded by key members of the Metroid Prime team. This 20-player online experience, while easy to pick up and play, also offers a great deal of depth with skill trees, ship upgrades, loot to collect, and many other details and mechanics.  Get your warships ready and prepare for 10v10 space madness.

Finally, PS4 owners are also getting Ubisoft’s first-person survival-horror game Zombi.  Zombi was originally released as a Wii U launch title and was later brought over to PS4 and Xbox One.  Taking place in London after a zombie outbreak, you need to do whatever it takes to survive as long as you can.  Challenging and creative gameplay mechanics, along with the permadeath system make this cult hit worth checking out.

Here’s the full line-up for April:

• Dead Star (PS4)
• Zombi (PS4)
• I Am Alive (PS3)
• Savage Moon (PS3)
• A Virus Named Tom (PS Vita)
• Shutshimi (PS Vita)

Earlier this week, Microsoft announced the Xbox Live Games for Gold for April, and their line-up is pretty strong as well.  Which free games will you be downloading in April?  Let us know in the comments below!
