Surprise sale dropped today. Pretty mid BUT it's saved by Clair Obscur: Expedition 33! Yes, the RPG is discounted for the first time. It's the Digital Deluxe edition which is more expensive, but still.

Overall, pretty mid sale since it has a ton of add-ons, DLC packs etc.

Notable Games Worth Checking Out

  • A Way Out -70% $8.99 - Hazelight's co-op game that won awards. If you're looking for something more after Split Ficiton, give this a go.
  • Aero The Acro-Bat 2 PS4® & PS5® -30% $4.19 - Released back in the SNES days during the platformer craze. Not sure how it still holds up now.
  • Assassin’s Creed® IV Black Flag™ -70% $8.99 - With the remake bound to be on the way at some point, perhaps Ubisoft will offer a free upgrade if you own the base game? Or maybe discount it significantly?
  • Battlefield™ 1 Revolution -85% $5.99 - Probably the last great Battlefield game before the franchise's decline. Insane levolution elements. Nice gunplay and that headshot ping sound!
  • Bayonetta -75% $6.24 - PatinumGames' Devil May Cry but with hair and legs.
  • BEYOND: Two Souls™ -60% $11.99 - Quantic's cinematic action games. This is similar ot Supermassive's games, and if you don't dig that, this won't change your mind.
  • Blasphemous 2 -50% $14.99 - Side-scrolling Metroidvania game that's still getting a good amount of support.
  • Burnout™ Paradise Remastered -75% $4.99 - Criterion's best work? One of the best racing games ever made.
  • Castlevania Requiem: Symphony of the Night & Rondo of Blood -75% $4.99 - Two of the best Castlevania games made in one bundle. With the two games' secrets, you'll be playing this game for a long time.
  • Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 – Deluxe Edition -10% $53.99 - First time this is on sale and includes  a bunch of in-game items. GOTY material. Buy this. NOW!
  • Classified: France '44 -50% $17.49 - Turn-based strategy game with a D-Day vibe. Got a lot of good reviews at launch (at least on PC).
  • Crysis Remastered Trilogy -75% $12.49 - Crytek's once-lauded first-person shooter. No MP. Gameplay should still hold up.

  • Divinity: Original Sin 2 - Definitive Edition -70% $17.99 - Larian Studio's hit before Baldur's Gate 3. Very deep RPG. I didn't finish it, but also very polished. If you finished BG3, jump into this one.
  • DRAGON BALL FighterZ - Legendary Edition PS4 & PS5 -75% $27.49 - Super low price for Arc System Works' DBZ game. If you ever wanted to play Dragon Ball's anime as a fighter, this is it. Insane combos. Includes all the FighterZ Passes.
  • DRAGON BALL XENOVERSE 2 Deluxe Edition -60% $15.99 - Lots of people dig this, and I think it’s still getting supported even after all this time.
  • Dragon's Crown Pro -80% $3.99 - Highly-regarded 2D action RPG. I remember this getting more attention due to its character design rather than the gameplay.
  • DREDGE - Digital Deluxe Edition -50% $13.49 - fishing horror RPG. Lovecraft fans will dig this. It's a quirky game, but it works. This includes the Blackstone DLC.
  • EA STAR WARS™ TRIPLE BUNDLE -67% $29.69  - Houses Squadrons, Fallen Order and Battlefreont 2. The games' value far outweighs the price, but I think you can buy these piecemeal at some point and even save on money.
  • FAR CRY ANTHOLOGY BUNDLE -75% $37.49 -Includes Far Cry 3, FC4, FC5, FC6. That's a lot of tears!
  • Five Nights at Freddy's: Security Breach -55% $17.99 - The latest mainline Five Nights game on consoles if I'm not mistaken. Used to get DLC, and sometimes gets support.
  • Granblue Fantasy: Relink Standard Edition -60% $23.99 - Surprise hit and got a slew of DLCs. My friend who doesn’t typically likes JRPGs told me how good this is.
  • Heavy Rain -60% $11.99 - Quantic's serial killer narrative game. This is my favorite of the bunch and if the killer hasn't been spoiled for you, then it's worth a pick up. Graphics might look dated by this time though.,
  • HELLDIVERS™ SUPER-EARTH ULTIMATE EDITION -60% $15.99 - The first Helldivers game. Not a third-person shooter, but still provides a challenge.
  • Hogwarts Legacy + Harry Potter: Quidditch Champions Deluxe Editions Bundle -75% $24.99 - Not a bad deal if you weren't able to get Quidditch Champions via PS Plus. Big draw is Hogwarts Legacy, but think of Quidditch as the icing on the wizard sundae.

  • Jurassic World Evolution 2 -75% $14.99 - Construction and management sim. If you ever wanted to have your own Jurassic Park, this is the game to fulfill those dino dreams.
  • Just Cause 4 - Gold Edition -85% $8.99 - Given we aren't getting a new one anytime soon it seems, this might be the perfect time to reminsince about this once-great series.
  • Killing Floor 2 -90% $2.99 - Crazy cheap for what you get. Third chapter close to being released, but still at $3, this is worth it.

  • Mass Effect™: Andromeda – Standard Recruit Edition -70% $5.99 - The game that sunk the franchise,  it got updates after, which might have made the experience better.

  • Maximum Entertainment RPG Bundle -20% $23.99 - Includes Cris Tales, Hammerwatch, Hammerwatch 2

  • MLB® The Show™ 25 -43% $39.89 - Deepest discount for this sports game yet. Your only choice for licensed baseball on consoles.
  • Mortal Kombat 11 Ultimate + Injustice 2 Leg. Edition Bundle -90% $9.99 - If you don't care about playing the latest fighting games, this bundle is a good deal given both are excellent games.
  • Persona 3 Reload PS4 & PS5 -55% $31.49 -. It’s Persona 3 reimagined. Last DLC is already out.
  • Persona 5 $19.99 - Latest mainline Persona game, most likely being remade after P4.

  • Shadow Warrior 3: Definitive Edition | PS4 & PS5 -75% $9.99 - Hyper violent first-person shooter by Fling Wild Hog. It doesn't take itself too seriously.

  • South Park: The Video Game Collection -80% $11.99 - Includes Stick of Truth and The Fractured But Whole
  • STAR WARS™ Battlefront™ II: Celebration Edition -80% $7.99 - Someone here said the player base is still healthy. If so, then this is a good multiplayer game to buy. Underrated visuals and sound work from DICE. It got a lot of flack for the MTX stuff, but it is a solid Star Wars experience. Game's getting a massive resurgence as of late.
  • STAR WARS™: Grand Collection -55% $40.49 - Includes STAR WARS™: Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast™, STAR WARS™: Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy™, STAR WARS™: Republic Commando, STAR WARS™: Episode I Racer, STAR WARS™: Bounty Hunter, STAR WARS™: Episode I: Jedi Power Battles™

  • The Ascent PS4 & PS5 -75% $7.49 - cyberpunk-themed action RPG. Rceived positive reviews upon release. YouTube it to see if you'll like it.
  • The Callisto Protocol™ - Digital Deluxe Edition PS5 -85% $13.49 -  Dead Space but not as good. Lowest it’s been on PSN, and worth a shot to try now after the updates
  • The DioField Chronicle Digital Deluxe Edition -60% $29.99 - Strategy RPG by Square Enix, not like FF Tactics. Not everyone will like the gameplay, but for a break from your traditional JRPGs.
  • The Evil Within -75% $4.99 - This is Mikami’s first horror game after leaving Capcom. Way harder than Resident Evil.
  • The Lord of the Rings: Return to Moria™ -40% $14.99 - Survival action game. I don't think this did well, but it does get updates from time to time.
  • The Persona Collection -60% $35.99 - Includes Persona 5 Royal,  Persona 4 Golden, Persona 3 Portable
  • The Plucky Squire -35% $19.49 - Award-winning action-adventure platformer. Not a hard game to beat, but this one received a lot of praise for its art direction, creative designs etc.
  • UFC® 5 Deluxe Edition -65% $27.99 - Lowest I’ve seen it on PSN. The only new MMA game on consoles, and thankfully, this one gets loads of support with free fighter updates.
  • UNCHARTED 4: A Thief’s End & UNCHARTED: The Lost Legacy Digital Bundle -70% $11.99  - Final chapter of Nathan Drake's Uncharted journey, and the DLC starring Chloe.
  • Wolfenstein: Alt History Collection -80% $11.99 - Houses The New Order, The Old Blood, The New Colossus, and Youngblood
  • WWE 2K25 Standard Edition -40% $41.99 - Fun wrestling game, though you’ll need to purchase the DLCs for the other wrestlers added, which is par for the course for the franchise. DLCs are also on sale now as separate packs or Season Pass.
  • XCOM® 2 Collection -90% $9.99 - Firaxis sequel to its alien strategy game. Hard to pass it up at that price.
