7 Comments

We're not even halfway through March, but we already know one of the PlayStation Plus free games for April 2023. Behaviour Interactive's brand-new game Meet Your Maker will be available on PS Plus starting April 4, the same day the game launches. Meet Your Maker is the first release-day freebie on PS Plus in a while, and unlike some past offers, it'll be playable on both PS5 and PS4. [Update: The full lineup of PlayStation Plus games for April 2023 has been confirmed.]

Meet Your Maker is referred to by Behaviour Interactive as a "building-and-raiding game." It takes place in a post-apocalyptic world where Earth is on the brink of total annihilation. As the Custodian of the Chimera, the only thing that matters now is Genetic Material, which you need to acquire and protect.

To add to your stockpile of resources, you have to make your way through labyrinthine outposts that contain all sorts of obstacles and enemies. Meet Your Maker is community-focused and dynamic, as the outposts you attempt to steal from are built by other players. You control every aspect of your own outposts, from its general layout and traps to coordinating movements for your outpost guards. You can gain more control over the finer details of traps by modding them, and guards have augments that can make them more dynamic.

Both the building and raiding portions of Meet Your Maker are played from a first-person perspective. When you're raiding, you'll get to pick between three unique loadouts: ranged, melee, and defensive. There's an arsenal of guns and close-range weapons such as swords at your disposal.

Meet Your Maker can be played cooperatively with a friend. Two players can build and raid outposts alongside each other. Once other players attempt to complete your outposts, you can watch their runs with the replay system. Then you can use that data to go back and tinker with the outpost to your liking.

All tiers of PS Plus subscribers will be able to claim Meet Your Maker throughout April. Assuming that PlayStation doesn't view Meet Your Maker as one of the rare "bonus" freebies, it'll take one of the three slots in April's PS Plus lineup. In the meantime, don't forget to claim March's PlayStation Plus lineup, which includes Battlefield 2042, Minecraft Dungeons, and Code Vein.
