PlayStation Plus, Xbox Live Gold, or Amazon Prime subscribers can get their hands on a different set of free games each month. All three subscription services offer up two or more titles each month in addition to their other perks and features.
These deals are only available for a limited time, though, so gamers should download them while they’re still available.
These are the games available for free in April 2020.
PlayStation Plus
Sony’s Instant Game Collection has been the prime perk of PlayStation Plus since it launched in 2010. It currently offers up two PlayStation 4 titles each month.
These games aren’t permanent additions to their libraries, though. If players let their subscription lapse, the games are locked without renewal or buying the games separately.
Free Instant Game Collection PlayStation 4 games for April 2020:
Shadow of the Colossus — Free until April 7
Sonic Forces — Free until April 7
Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End — Free from April 7 until May 5
Dirt Rally 2.0 — Free from April 7 until May 5
Xbox Live Gold
Microsoft has been giving away titles via its Games With Gold program since 2013 and offers four games a month split between Xbox 360 and Xbox One. That’s an important distinction as Xbox 360 games redeemed via Games With Gold will be permanently added to your library while the Xbox One titles require an active subscription to be played.

Fable Anniversary — Free until April 15

Twitch Prime
Twitch Prime, which is free to all Amazon Prime members, gives multiple PC games to users each month. These titles are all free to keep forever, so they’ll still be in your library even if your subscription is no longer current
Twitch Prime also offers up a wide range of free cosmetics and in-game loot for a variety of titles.
