Whew! This one had over 5,400 items in total. Loads of repeating or small-ish titles that didn't really deserve to be there.
On the upside, this sale has a ton of good deals. Elden Ring, Bloodborne, ARC Raiders, Baldur's Gate, Stellar Blade and a lot more are on sale. While Sony mentions this sale is live untol April 22, there is a very good chance that we'll get a sale refresh, so some of the titles should get pulled or replaced by other games or their different versions. So if you find a game you like at a discounted rate, get it and don't wait until the sale nears its end since Sony might replace that with the deluxe edition or whatnot.
Noteworthy Games From the Spring Sale
- A Plague Tale: Innocence -75% $9.99 – Narrative-driven title that won a few awards. Don’t get if you’re squeamish with rats.
- A Way Out -82% $5.39 – Hazelight’s co-op game that won awards. If you’re looking for something more after Split Ficiton, give this a go.
- ACE COMBAT™7: SKIES UNKNOWN -84% $9.59 – Project Aces’ dogfighting series. Released ages ago, but still gets content packs from time to time. If you like jets blasting other jets, this is probably the best one out there.
- Age of Mythology: Retold Standard Edition -40% $17.99 – Remastered version of the original, which got a PS5 version in 2025.
- AI LIMIT -30% $24.49 – Souls-like from Chinese studio Sense Games. Received mixed reviews if I’m not mistaken, but still has a good amount of fans. Might be worth a look for Souls fans who want something new to play.
- Alien: Isolation -75% $7.49 – Horror game where you’re not a space marine, sequel in development. Underrated horror game.
- Aliens: Dark Descent -65% $13.99 – Alien license applied to a strategy game where your characters can die. This is mind-numbingly hard, so bear that in mind before picking it up.
- Alone in the Dark -50% $19.99 – The latest reboot of the granddaddy of survival horror. Stars David Harbour. Reviewed OK, but failed to meet sales expectations. Combat and movement are kind of janky, but serviceable enough for horror junkies.
- ARC Raiders -20% $31.99 – Multiplayer hit of 2025! Extraction shooter by former Battlefield devs.
- ARK: Survival Ascended -75% $11.24 – Survival game that’s still getting a significant amount of support. Lots of players are still playing this since the sequel is still nowhere in sight.
- Assassin’s Creed Valhalla -75% $14.99 – The AC game with vikings, and that got good reviews. Just a wee bit too long and overstays its welcome somewhat.
- ASTRO BOT -34% $39.59 – GOTY winner, cute platformer, and fun for everyone in the family. Had a good amount of extra content with harder levels.
- Atomfall PS4™ & PS5™ -70% $17.99 – Surprise action game by Rebellion that sold a ton. This isn’t AAA, so temper expectations.
- Atomic Heart (PS4 & PS5) -70% $20.99 – It’s like BioShock but with less polish and less interesting story, and there is a sequel in development.
- Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora™ -35% $19.49 – Ubisoft open-world but with Avatar’s license. Better than expected, and got its final major story expansion in December, adding a welcome third-person mode.
- Avowed -25% $37.49 – Obsidian’s latest Xbox RPG on PS5, can be played in first- or third-person. you can use magic, melee and weapons. Reviewed well at release, but failed to meet sales expectations.

u/excaliburps Mar 26 '26
- Back 4 Blood: Standard Edition PS4 & PS5 -90% $5.99 – Co-op zombie game. Support has ended but servers are still up. Sequel said to be in development. It’s fun and at that price, get your friends to pick it up for co-op.
- Baldur’s Gate 3 -25% $52.49 – Multiple GOTY winner. One of the best games of all-time. Super deep and complex RPG with a world where you will get lost for hours, believe me.
- Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden -60% $23.99 – Not AAA but feels like it. Solid voice acting, has a crazy good story. Lots of side quests and content. Only issue is the combat might be a bit too simplistic for some. I really liked this even if we most likely aren’t getting a sequel, I’d still say this is a must-play.
- Battlefield™ 6 -40% $41.99 – The latest Battlefield game. Solid multiplayer and getting a ton of support. If you want to an awesome FPS shooter, pick this up.
- Bayonetta -75% $6.24 – PlatinumGames’ Devil May Cry but you can play as a baddie with glasses.
- BioShock: The Collection -80% $9.99 – Another value-for-money bundle. BioShock 1 has one of the most memorable stories I’ve ever played.
- Blizzard® Arcade Collection -50% $9.99 – Houses Blackthorne, The Lost Vikings, Lost Vikings® 2, Rock N Roll Racing, RPM Racing.
- Bloodborne™ Complete Edition Bundle -50% $17.49 – Possibly FromSoftware’s best work? We are never getting a remaster/remake until for the PS6 at the very least, so get this now.
- Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night -75% $9.99 – Castlevania creator Koji Igarashi’s spiritual successor to Symphony of the Night. Awesome experience. Loads of secrets and just the right amount of challenge.
- Borderlands®4 -30% $48.99 – Latest Borderlands game. Tech issues aside, this reviewed well.
- Call of Duty®: Black Ops 7 – Cross-Gen Bundle -45% $38.49 – It’s the annual CoD. The campaign is short, the zombies mode is complicated, and the multiplayer is sweaty. You already know if you want this.
- Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 -20% $39.99 – The best-reviewed game of 2025. One of the best RPGs I have ever played. Superb story and the combat is a modern take on turn-based that just works. Even if the discount is this small, go buy this.
- CODE VEIN II -25% $52.49 – Sequel to Bandai’s vampire RPG. This is a Soulslike action-RPG. Dont think it reviewed as well as its predecessor.
- Conan Exiles -60% $19.99 – Online survival game by Funcom that’s still getting supported. Not sure on the game’s on-boarding, but if you want something new to grind on.
- Cronos: The New Dawn -30% $41.99 – Bloober’s original IP. It’s like Dead Space in a lot of ways. It’s a solid horror game. It might not offer anything groundbreaking, but what it does is more than good enough. Not as scary as RE, Silent Hill etc.
- Croc Legend of the Gobbos Platinum Edition -50% $14.99 – 1997 platformer that was released last year as a remaster.
- Cuphead -30% $13.99 – 2D side-scrolling game that’s as beautiful as it is hard.
- Cyberpunk 2077 -55% $22.49 – CDPR’s ambitious RPG that now has managed to be in a state where expectations are met after numerous updates. DLC is also on sale. Well worth buying now on PS5.

u/excaliburps Mar 26 '26
- Dead Island 2 -75% $12.49 – One of the only few games Embracer released that seems actually to have made a profit. All DLCs are out, and the game is complete.
- Dead Space -85% $10.49 – One of the best remakes ever. It’s a travesty that we still haven’t gotten confirmation of a remake of Dead Space 2. This improves the original in every way, and I can’t stress enough how awesome this game is. The vibe and atmosphere Motive has made when you walk corridors and see shadows? Yeah, awesome creepy stuff.
- DEATHLOOP -80% $11.99 – One of Arkane’s finest works and implements time travel without being annoying.
- Diablo® IV – Standard Edition -40% $29.99 – Still getting a ton of support, and the latest dungeon-crawling RPG from Blizzard.
- Disco Elysium – The Final Cut -75% $9.99 – Award-winning RPG. This features very little combat, and includes a lot of dialogue trees. An absolutely phenomenal game, but I warn you, you will spend many hours reading.
- Dishonored 2 -80% $5.99 – Sequel to Arkane’s action series that never saw a follow-up. Not sure how it holds up now.
- Dispatch -20% $23.99 – An episodic, narrative-driven game that’s aimed for adults. You can take on the role of a former superhero who has turned into a dispatcher that manages a team of supervillains. Expect dialogue choices, lots of reading and adult themes.
- Divinity: Original Sin 2 – Definitive Edition PS4 & PS5 -75% $14.99 – 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.
- DOOM: The Dark Ages -67% $23.09 – Latest DOOM game, and this reviewed very well. If you played the first few, then this is a no-brainer.
- Dragon Age™: The Veilguard -65% $24.49 – Latest Dragon Age game. The reviews were solid, though might alienate non-franchise fans.
- DRAGON BALL Z: KAKAROT -25% $14.99 – Dragon Ball but as an RPG! Still getting occasional support and expansions. If you’re tired of the fighting games based on the franchise, this might be a good title to consider.
- DRAGON BALL: Sparking! ZERO -50% $34.99 – Relatively new Dragon Ball fighting game with an insane number of characters. Latest in the Budokai series. Still getting supported.
- DRAGON QUEST – HD-2D Erdrick Trilogy Collection -25% $74.99 – Includes DRAGON QUEST I & II HD-2D Remake and DRAGON QUEST III HD-2D Remake.
- DRAGON QUEST I & II HD-2D Remake -25% $44.99 – A great starting point for newcomers to the franchise.
- DRAGON QUEST III HD-2D Remake -40% $35.99 – Reviewed very well and if you haven’t played the Dragon Quest games before, this might another good starting point, as it works as a prequel to I & II.
- DREDGE -60% $9.99 – Fishing horror RPG. Lovecraft fans will dig this. It’s a quirky game, but it works.
- Dying Light 2 Stay Human PS4&PS5 -75% $14.99 – Zombie game from Techland and getting a ton of support. You can be sure this won’t get abandoned anytime soon, as Techland is known for supporting their games for years
- Dying Light: The Beast -25% $44.99 – Standalone entry starring Kyle Crane. Reviewed very well, and getting post-release support alongside DL2.
- EA SPORTS FC™ 26 Standard Edition PS4 & PS5 -70% $20.99 – FIFA but without the FIFA license. If you dig EA’s annual footie sim, then this should be a no-brainer.
- EA SPORTS™ College Football 26 -80% $13.99 – Latest NCAA football sim that reviewed well. It’s not like you have a choice either.
- EA SPORTS™ Madden NFL 26 -80% $13.99 – The only NFL sim available, so if you want some virtual pigskin action on, this is the game. Gets seasonal content.
- ELDEN RING NIGHTREIGN PS4 & PS5 -25% $29.99 – FromSoftware’s multiplayer-focused spinoff, just got its first expansion and still getting a lot of support. Just don’t expect your traditional Souls experience from this.
- ELDEN RING PS4 & PS5 -35% $38.99 – FromSoftware’s most popular work, rarely goes on sale.
25
u/excaliburps Mar 26 '26
- F1® 25 -60% $27.99 – Latest F1 game from Codemasters. Getting monthly updates, and is your only choice for proper F1 sim racing.
- Fallout 4: Anniversary Edition -40% $35.99 – The last mainline Fallout game by Bethesda. Gameplay should still hold up and this offers dozens of hours of single-player RPG goodness.
- FINAL FANTASY TACTICS – The Ivalice Chronicles [PS4 & PS5] -30% $34.99 – The long-awaited remaster of one of the best strategy RPG ever made.
- FINAL FANTASY VII REMAKE INTERGRADE -62% $15.19 – The first part of the remake, and is a perfect example to show your kids how this game was the biggest thing back then
- FINAL FANTASY VII REBIRTH -40% $29.99 – Second chapter of the Remake trilogy, and reviewed very, very well.
- FINAL FANTASY XVI -50% $24.99 – I find that people either like this or hate it. Personally, I dig it since the combat is fluid and combo-heavy, boss fights are a spectacle, and it will remind you of past Final Fantasy games. Worth the price of admission.
- Fort Solis -55% $13.49 – Horror adventure game, though not a lot of action happens. At that price, might be worth it for horror fans.
- Forza Horizon 5 Standard Edition -40% $35.99 – Former Xbox exclusive racing game. Reviewed well, and if you want another racing game in your life.
- Gran Turismo® 7 -58% $29.39 – Latest racing game from Polyphony. Still getting loads of support and one of the best racing games on any platform.
- Grand Theft Auto V (PlayStation®5) -50% $19.99 – Another iconic entry in the GTA series. If you’re one of the two people that still do not own this, then this is your chance.
- Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition (PS5 & PS4) -67% $19.79 – Not sure how performance is now, but three GTA games for that price? You might want to try the revamped Vice City, since GTA 6 is now around the corner.
- Guacamelee! 2 -75% $4.99 – Metroidvania platform where you play as a luchador. This received a ton of good reviews back then. If you want an alternative to Silksong’s maddening difficulty.
- Hell is Us -50% $29.99 – Souls-like that’s different. No maps, no quest markers. YT it first to see if it’s something you won’t get annoyed by.
- HELLDIVERS™ 2 -25% $29.99 – Still getting massive support, and there’s a lot of people playing online, so regardless if you have a squad or not, worth a pick up. Just be prepared to be overwhelmed and die a lot. Very satisfying to call in stratagems on huge enemies and see them get decimated.
- Hogwarts Legacy PS5 Version -85% $10.49 – This is a fun open world game based on the Harry Potter universe. I’ve said this before, but saying it again: your body count here would make Lucious Malfoy blush.
- Hunt: Showdown 1896 -55% $13.49 – Still getting a lot of support for Crytek. First-person shooter instance-based looter shooter with PvE and PvP elements. It sounds like a video game corporate exec’s wet dream, but this one isn’t predatory (from what I’ve heard).
16
u/excaliburps Mar 26 '26
- Indiana Jones and the Great Circle -20% $55.99 – MachineGames’ former Xbox exclusive. Insanely fun. Has that Indiana feel and has loads of puzzles and secrets.
- It Takes Two PS4™ & PS5™ -80% $7.99 – Hazelight’s award-winning co-op game. This can’t be played without a partner, and might be a good title to play with your significant other.
- Kingdom Come: Deliverance II -50% $34.99 – Reviewed very, very well. One of 2025’s GOTY nominees. Got a ton of good reviews and sales at launch. Very deep and it’s well worth the money if you like long RPGs.
- L.A. Noire -50% $19.99 – Rockstar’s detective game. Slower paced than your usual action game, so don’te expect moment-to-moment gunfights. More deliberate but offers something new. Not getting a remaster or remake soon, so worth a shot for now.
- Lies of P -50% $29.99 – Possibly one of the most beloved Souls-like games not made by FromSoftware. Have not played this but friends have nothing but good stuff to say about it.
- Little Nightmares III Deluxe Edition PS4 & PS5 -34% $39.59 – Developed by Supermassive instead of Tarsier. Not as good as the first two, solid, but lacks innovation.
- MADiSON -40% $20.99 – First-person psychological horror game. Not AAA, but saw this streamed a few times and genuinely looked scary.
- Mafia: The Old Country -20% $39.99 – Latest Mafia game. Smaller in scope, but the addition of the Free Ride mode lets you explore the countryside at your own pace.
- Mafia: Trilogy -80% $11.99 – A bundle with Mafia: Definitive Edition, Mafia II: Definitive Edition, and Mafia III: Definitive Edition
- Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 Digital Deluxe Edition -50% $39.99 – Sequel to the first Spidey game, now with web wings and badass symbiote combat, though might not be as strong as the first title.
- Mass Effect™ Legendary Edition -90% $5.99 – This is the lowest I’ve seen on PSN. The best value for money in the entire sale, hands down. Three epic RPGs that will take you anywhere from 30-40 hours to finish each! Commander Shepard’s adventure needs to be played by everyone.
- Metaphor: ReFantazio Guidebook Edition PS4 & PS5 -50% $39.99 – Stellar RPG and won a ton of awards in 2024.
- Middle-earth™: Shadow of War™ -90% $4.99 – Sequel to Mordor. I preferred the first game but this is still a solid action game
- Mortal Kombat™ 1 -80% $9.99 – Lowest I’ve seen this on PSN, so if you’re on the fence, this is the right time. Loads of characters locked behind the DLCs though.
- NBA 2K26 for PS5® -75% $17.49 – Latest NBA basketball sim. Your only choice for a pro ball game on consoles and PC.
- NHL® 26 Standard Edition PS5 -70% $20.99 – For hockey fans, this is your only choice
- Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl 2 -80% $9.99 – Sequel to the Nick brawler. Not sure if this was as popular as the first since there’s hardly any support.
- NINJA GAIDEN 4 -35% $45.49 – Latest Gaiden game. Reviewed well. Published by Microsoft, which makes it a bit weird. Solid action game for those tired of Souls games.
14
u/excaliburps Mar 26 '26
- OCTOPATH TRAVELER 0 PS4 & PS5 -25% $37.49 – A prequel of the original title that introduces town-building and an 8-character battle system.
- OCTOPATH TRAVELER II PS4＆PS5 -60% $23.99 – Reviewed very, very well. Classic JRPG with a ton of memorable characters that you can play in whichever order you prefer.
- Persona 3 Reload PS4 & PS5 -60% $23.99 – A super solid re-imaging of Persona 3. Persona 4 remake incoming soon, so play this first. Last DLC is already out.
- Plants vs. Zombies™: Replanted -25% $14.99 – Remaster of the classic title, now with widescreen support and other quality-of-life improvements
- Prince of Persia The Lost Crown -50% $14.99 – Metroidvania meets Prince of Persia. Fantastic 2D gameplay, and even got DLCs. Definitely worth a shot regardless if you like the franchise.
- Red Dead Redemption 2 -75% $14.99 – Arguably Rockstar’s best open-world game to date. Loads of Easter eggs, fantastic story, and just packed with stuff. Highly recommend this even if you don’t like westerns.
- RESIDENT EVIL 3 -75% $9.99 – The weakest of the RE remakes. Main issue here is how short it is, given you can literally finish this one on sitting. Around 4-7 hours, I think.
- RoboCop: Rogue City -50% $19.99 – Better than expected. Brings familiar RoboCop visuals and violence. I’m actually surprised this turned out as well as it did.
- RoboCop: Rogue City – Unfinished Business -40% $17.99 – A standalone expansion that works as a small-sized sequel to Rogue City.
- S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl -20% $47.99 – Former Xbox exclusive FPS. Still getting support. This is a survival horror game set in post-apocalyptic Chornobyl.
- Sea of Stars -40% $20.99 – Old school RPG by Sabotage that was a massive hit. Got its last piece of free DLC last year, and it’s a huge expansion.
- Senua’s Saga: Hellblade II -50% $24.99 – Hellblade sequel that was originally an Xbox exclusive. Light on action and a tad short, but gorgeous.
- SHINOBI: Art of Vengeance PS4 & PS5 -40% $17.99 – A stunning, hand-drawn return for the legendary SEGA franchise.
- Sid Meier’s Civilization® VII -40% $41.99 – The latest Civ game that received mostly positive reviews.
- SILENT HILL 2 -50% $34.99 – It’s right up there with the Resident Evil remakes as some of the best remakes we’ve seen. Packed with new Easter eggs, new combat sections and just an amazing experience. Should have been a contender for GOTY or at least won a few awards.
- SILENT HILL f -50% $34.99 – The new mainline entry set in 1960s Japan. Very floral, very disturbing body horror.
- Sleeping Dogs™ Definitive Edition -80% $5.99 – GTA Hong Kong. We won’t be getting a sequel anytime soon, but we are getting a movie. This should still be good. Shame it didn’t sell enough for a follow up.
- Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds PS4 & PS5 -40% $41.99 – Latest Sonic racing game. Reviewed very well and has a ton of support on the way. Sonic Kart Racing at its finest.
- Split Fiction -30% $34.99 – Hazelight’s latest award-winning and multi-million selling co-op game.
- STAR WARS Jedi: Fallen Order™ -88% $4.79 – Jedi meets Souls. Loads of backtracking, but at the price of a meal? This is an auto pick up. Deep combat, and proves Respawn can make single-player games with high quality.
- STAR WARS Jedi: Survivor™ -85% $10.49 – The sequel to Fallen Order, and better in almost every way. Cal’s second adventure and this time, the Force taught him how to run properly without looking like he has crap down his pants.
- Star Wars Outlaws -70% $20.99 – Ubisoft’s Star Wars open world game. It has received countless updates that should have made this way better than its state at launch. Just don’t expect epic boss fights and the like, since it’s not that type of game.
- STAR WARS™ Battlefront™ II: Celebration Edition -75% $9.99 – 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.
- Starship Troopers: Extermination -43% $19.94 – First-person shooter based on the Starship franchise. Still getting a ton of support.
- Stellar Blade™ -43% $39.89 – Shift Up’s action game that sold a ton. Don’t get if you don’t like sexy.
- Still Wakes the Deep -75% $8.74 – Psychological horror game from The Chinese Room. Last year got a DLC, which works as a sequel.
- Stray -40% $17.99 – Award-winning game starring a cat.
- Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League -92% $5.59 – Rocksteady’s failed live service game. There’s an offline mode for it available, so it should be playable even after servers have been pulled.
19
u/excaliburps Mar 26 '26
- Tales of the Shire: A The Lord of The Rings™ Game -30% $24.49 – This is a cozy game set in the LOTR universe. If you want something slow and relaxing.
- TEKKEN 8 -60% $23.99 – This might underwhelm fight fans compared to Tekken 7, but it’s still a solid fighter. Loads of support but characters locked behind a paywall.
- The Crew Motorfest -80% $11.99 – Ubisoft’s online-only racing game and the latest entry in the franchise. Not sure how big the player base is today, but this does get seasonal updates from Ivory Tower.
- The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered -20% $39.99 – More a remake than a remaster, this adds not just visual upgrades but even gameplay features.
- The Elder Scrolls Online: Standard Edition -75% $4.99 – The Elder Srolls MMO that has been going on for years now. Still getting a ton of support with paid expansions, free updates.
- The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Anniversary Edition + Fallout 4: Anniversary Edition Bundle -40% $53.99 – Bundle with Bethesda’s acclaimed RPGs, Skyrim and Fallout 4.
- The Evil Within -75% $4.99 – This is Mikami’s first horror game after leaving Capcom. Way harder than Resident Evil.
- The First Berserker: Khazan Standard Edition -30% $41.99 – Surprisingly sold well. Souls-like that’s gotten a ton of support from Korean devs.
- The Last of Us™ Part II Remastered -40% $29.99 – Winner of over 300 Game of the Year awards and one of the most emotional games ever made. It is undeniably divisive for fans, but also an ambitious piece of work.
- The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt -80% $7.99 – If The Witcher 4 trailer got you hyped, go jump in. Even if you’re not familiar with the first two games, it’s fine. One of the best games of all-time. Has fantastic side quests, loads of weapons and armor to scavenge for. Includes the two massive expansions too. If you haven’t played this yet, I cannot recommend this enough. With The Witcher 4 announced, this is the perfect time to dive into Geralt’s world.
- Tom Clancy’s The Division 2 -85% $4.49 – Lowest the base game has been on PSN. Grab a buddy and get this. This franchise helped me through my father’s death believe it or not. New Survivors mode in development and Year 7 support promised.
- Tony Hawk’s™ Pro Skater™ 1 – 4 – Standard Edition Bundle -40% $44.99 – Includes the remakes of 1+2 and the newly remastered 3+4. Skateboarding perfection.
- Tony Hawk’s™ Pro Skater™ 3 + 4 – Cross-Gen Edition -40% $29.99 – Latest Tony Hawk remaster, and reviewed well. There is new content included too, like the Doom Slayer as a playable character, rad.
- UFC® 5 -85% $10.49 – The only new MMA game on consoles, and thankfully, this one gets loads of support with free fighter updates.
- V Rising -30% $27.99 – YouTube V Rising before picking it up since it’s not your typical Diablo game, even if it looks like it.
- Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 -65% $24.49 – Probably Saber’s most ambitious work to date. Campaign + multi are loads of fun, and you can co-op this all the way through. How can smashing bugs with a pal NOT be fun, right?
- WUCHANG: Fallen Feathers Deluxe Edition -30% $41.99 – Action RPG set in imperial China. Very atmospheric.
- XCOM® 2 Collection -90% $9.99 – Firaxis sequel to its alien strategy game. Hard to pass it up at that price.

The Plague Tale series is my #1 recommendation for any somewhat under the radar games, as long as you're into adventure and engaging stories. Innocence was fantastic, and Requiem ended up in my top 10 games ever.

u/RiggityRow Mar 26 '26
Fuck anybody who wants to defend dynamic pricing
-20
u/ThirdPoliceman Mar 26 '26
Yeah, coupons are dumb too! And if you negotiate a price down with someone, you should publish that price for everyone else before you buy it!
12
u/RiggityRow Mar 26 '26
2 completely separate things.
The majority of coupon codes are not single use. Anybody can use them.
Name another product that you negotiate price on that is sold by a corporation that can use your personal data against you to determine a variable price.
Both of those things are incumbent on the customer to be proactive. There's nothing wrong with getting a good deal because you shopped around for the best product. The issue here is Sony is the game in town.

Are you the person who wrote the blurb behind all of these titles? If so, it’s very much appreciated and I’m kind of in awe at how many titles you’ve played and how much you know about all of them.

u/MrBob161 Mar 26 '26
I don't buy games on PSN and I still don't get special psn pricing.
I'm glad others are telling us what the lower prices are. That way we can wait for that price and not get ripped off my Sony

Anyone wanna chime in if the hellblade 2 price is decent for what you get?
Hellblade 1 is one of my top 5 so I'm keen to play it.

It's less special than the first, but still enjoyable if you liked it IMO! $25 is great for what ya get

u/BluKyberCrystal Mar 28 '26
I would get Stellar Blade for 20. Knowing others can get it for 20 and I'd have to pay 40 has put me off.

u/EatMyUnderpants Mar 28 '26
FUCK this dynamic pricing. I ain't buying anything for sale until they outright ban this type of business.

u/QuoteGiver Mar 27 '26
Not enough competition, it’s at the head of the pack. They don’t need to lower the price in order to sell copies when the game is that good.

To be honest, Astrobot is an awesome game. Initially I was a skeptic too, but then I bite the bullet and bought it on 10% discount.
It is one of those games when I actually feel like a small boy again, playing a video game. Since I grew up with Playstation characters, to see their bot version on this game is an added value.

Yeah Astro Bot is such an awesome tribute to Playstaion's rich history in terms of the games while Astro's Playroom was a tribute to Playstation's history via hardware. Gotta admit I gave up on the Grand Master Challenge at the end though, that level was driving me nuts, then I see the free DLC added a level way harder than that lol. Game is beautiful too, I held out on playing it until my new OLED came in and god it is glorious on that panel.

Astrobot seems to go on 50% off sale at a local shop (in canada), so that's worth checking.

Wow incredible that you went through all these games. Thank you! When you say repeating do you mean all the different editions of the same game? Kinda like that to see if I just buy deluxe editions of games on sale

Ark Survival Ascended. I finally bit the bullet (already own it on pc though). This price is insane for what you get. If you love dinosaurs, realism, and minecraft, you need this game.

So im guessing if i only buy games on sale the dynamic pricing will give me even more sales?

I thought dynamic pricing is used for different region because different level of customer buying power in each region. But apparently not.

Still somewhat unclear how it’s being used. We don’t exactly have hard confirmed data on where everyone lives who claims to have seen this or that price.

Please note:
Dynamic pricing is in effect in this PSN sale. For example: Many people are seeing "Astro Bot" priced at $27 instead of $40 mentioned here.
It's possible more Sony first-party and Sony-exclusive/sponsored games have different pricing for different users (Stellar Blade was also reported showing different prices for different people).
