Instead of regularly receiving high-quality games from PlayStation Plus, it’s unusual to obtain them on the exact day they are released. Typically, we receive new games added to the service, but in this case, the game has been available for several months already.

For PlayStation Extra and Premium subscribers, Sony will be offering a highly acclaimed game this year, which has consistently received ratings above 90 in reviews.

Upcoming Game Entering PS Plus Extra and Premium Is The Best Reviewed Game Of 2025

The game I’m talking about is called Blue Prince, an intriguing puzzle game developed by Dogubomb. Surprisingly, this relatively unknown game has now become the highest-rated game of the year thus far. At present, it boasts a score of 91 on Open Critic and 92 on Metacritic.

If you haven’t heard of the game before, that’s understandable since it’s not very popular and its genre isn’t widely recognized. As per publisher Raw Fury, “The Blue Prince” weaves together intriguing mysteries, strategic gameplay, and brain-teasing puzzles to offer an unforeseen adventure through Mt. Holly, a peculiar manor with rooms that constantly shift. Players must forge their own path through chambers filled with secrets and challenges as they strive to discover the elusive Room 46. Each chamber is distinct in its actions, and every move brings players a step closer to solving the mystery.

Blue Prince Key Features:

  • Draft your journey – Every door can reveal new and exciting chambers that contain their own unique challenges and secrets, as well as offering or taking resources. But choose carefully, for each day the manor’s floor plan resets and the rooms one sees today may not be the same rooms one sees tomorrow.
  • Every step counts – Progress each day is shaped by the rooms selected to draft and the tools found within them. Yet, tread wisely – when the floor plan resets at the end of the day, all but the permanent upgrades to the estate blueprint will be lost.
  • History in the making – Investigate a past woven with the threads of blackmail, political intrigue, and the mysterious disappearance of a local children’s book author. The deeper one ventures, the more one realizes that the past is closer than it appears.

This is more of a brain-teaser type of game, so there won’t be any gunfights or high-speed action. However, having such elements isn’t always necessary for a game to be enjoyable, as demonstrated by this particular title.

Few games receive such high ratings upon their debut, especially when they’re offered for free. Remarkably, “The Blue Prince” is set to be launched globally on April 10, making it simultaneously available in the PlayStation Plus’ Extra and Premium Game Libraries.

For those who don’t own a PS5, Blue Prince will also be available day one on Xbox Game Pass.

If you finish playing Blue Prince and are seeking another exciting game, take advantage of the current sale on one of the greatest gaming trilogies ever made! It’s available on the PlayStation Store at an unbeatable price of only $6 – but hurry, this deal won’t last long!
