According to the screenshot below, Sid Meier's Civilization VI could be the second free game to be coming to PS Plus in April 2021.
There are reports that Civilization VI is due a free-to-play weekend at some point in the next 30 days, so this could be due to that. Alternatively, the free-to-play weekend could be cover for the PS Plus addition.

Line-Up Reveal Coming Soon
With it being just over one week until the PS Plus April 2021 games are due to go live, we expect the line-up to be revealed imminently.
Between now, on March 29, and tomorrow, the games that will be free next month could be revealed, so keep an eye on Twitter, YouTube, and the PS Blog.
PS Plus April 2021 Release Date
Every month, PlayStation announce their PS Plus titles on the last Wednesday of the month.
This month, the last Wednesday of the month is the last day of the month. With PS Plus games often going live on Tuesday, this leaves one date open for April 2021's PS Plus games release: April 6.
Also, Oddworld Soulstorm is coming out on April 6. With this being a PS Plus game, we're pretty confident that we'll be looking at April 6, 2021, as the release date for April 2021's PS Plus games.
It's worth noting though, that we don't know for sure what the release date is. All of the above is just based on past trends and predictions.
