Woah Dave!, the frustratingly punctuated arcade title from Choice Provisions, will be free for PlayStation Plus subscribers in April – even though it's not officially part of the Instant Game Collection lineup. SCEA's Nick Suttner confirmed the snippet on the latest edition of the PlayStation Blogcast, stating that it will be free to download from Tuesday in North America.
"Either if you got it free on PlayStation Plus before [when the cross-buy game was made available for the PlayStation Vita], or [when it releases on 31st March], it's free for Plus members," he said. "It's not an official Plus game, but it is free for Plus members." In other words, if you missed this eggcellent gem at first attempt, you've got another shot.
The full roster of official freebies for April will be announced next week, ahead of a rollout on 7th April in North America and 8th April in Europe. We already know that Dishonored will be part of the offering on the PlayStation 3, but Sony's being secretive about the rest of the lineup. What would you like added to your download list?

So, I'm still waiting for Oddworld New 'n' Tasty for Vita, I got the version of the PS4 by Plus and says it's cross-buy.
Whoa Sammy - is it only in North America that whoa Dave is free or Europe as well? I'm hoping a telltale game or knack are free next month.
@themcnoisy PS Blogcast only covers North America, but I'd say it's almost certain this will extend to Europe, too.
I think you meant to say april not february right?
@jmburks Whoops! Thanks for the heads up, I've fixed that now.
I am hoping we get something interesting - not some indie/arcade rubbish. XB1's offerings next month are disappointing so hope the PS4 will give me something I wouldn't mind playing...
Not fussed what they put out, PS plus is peanuts really. I do wonder when they'll see business sense and stop offering AAA for last gen, it ain't exactly going to help PS Now or PS4.
Imagine if it was driveclub psplus edition
That's pretty cool of the developers!
@SKC_Diamond hahaha I admire your optimism.
I hate this game, it makes want to play my mario bros atari cart and I don't want to dig it out.
Would love it to be Drive Club! (fyi not looking for Evolution bashing please) I just really want a good racing game right now. Also I would love for a non indie game, with Playstation nearing the 2 year mark and as much as I love the indies! I do, The side scrolling platformers is what is defining Playstation Plus at this point.
Point is some kind of variety is needed.
Id like geometry wars 3 on my ps4.
Whoa indeed.
All I can say after playing this game on Vita is that I didn't understand it! I played it 2 or 3 times and I didn't get the objective and it seemed like a repetitive and dull game!
Did I miss something?
Well I did miss this on Vita when it came to Plus a couple months ago because I forgot to download..
@SKC_Diamond LMAO!! Shots fired. They earned it though.
Oddworld: New 'n' Tasty should also be like Woah Dave for Plus Members.
It says its a crossbuy title.
I'd love for either Slender Arrival or Helldivers to be on the list. But I doubt it. It's awesome for them to be offering a third game though, can't say no to that.
I assume that sold well then.....
