Sony typically reveals its PS Plus selection for the upcoming month on the final Wednesday prior to it, with few exceptions such as during the holidays. However, the final Wednesday of March came and went without a solid word from the gaming giant, leaving many to wonder when the official PS Plus April 2020 announcement will actually take place.
The most suspicious part of this missing reveal is that it just followed a leak. Occasionally, something somewhere will slip, including from Sony itself, and reveal the upcoming games ahead of time. The PS Plus April 2020 leak revealed that Uncharted 4: A Thieves End and DiRT Rally 2.0 would be coming as the new games, with it seemingly coming from a video directly from Sony. It has since been marked private, so there's a good chance that this video was meant to reveal the games, but it has yet to be officially posted.
Some who caught the video before it was pulled noted that there was a mention of April 1, 2020 on the video, which would suggest that for whatever reason, this video is meant to go live on the first Wednesday of April. This gives subscribers about 5-6 days to download March's selection, which includes Shadow of the Colossus and Sonic Forces. Of course, it would be remiss to ignore that date.
April 1, April fools' day, is a day for all kinds of pranks, and the gaming industry is no different. Over the years, there have been several different pranks such as when FF14 parodied Pokemon GO, when the Anthem subreddit turned into Division 2 forums, and far more. As such, it's not impossible that the aforementioned leak and the forthcoming reveal seemingly set for this particular day are some intricate set-up to reveal the real games for the month (or, the leak itself may have been a genuine leak with the company planning a different set of games to be showed as a prank).
Regardless, fans don't have much longer to wait to find out if this aforementioned leak is true or not, as either the day comes and the reveal is made, or it could be announced even before then. Either way, April's PS Plus games sound about as good as any, so only time will tell.
