Oh boy, PlayStation’s Summer Sale is like, right around the corner! I can almost smell the excitement mixed with the smell of sunscreen—starting July 16th, you’ll get to snag deals on those digital PS5 and PS4 games. No clue why they’re using three different time zones for the start—PDT/BST/JST—does anyone even know what time it is anyway?
Anyway, some pretty sweet offers are up! You can grab EA Sports FC 25 Standard Edition for a whopping 79% off. That’s kind of nuts, right? Then there’s Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 nonsense at 45% off. And don’t even get me started on Assassin’s Creed Shadows for 25% off! I mean, all these numbers might make your head spin. Mine sure is. Oh, and if Forza Horizon 5 or something called Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 catch your eye, they’ve got a bit of a markdown too.
There’s, like, a gajillion other games in this sale, but if you want the full scoop, you’ll have to check it out on the PlayStation Store yourself once it kicks off. Consider this your early heads-up—okay, maybe too early—but moral of the story: lots of shiny new games.
And that’s not all, folks! This sale fever is going all-in with console deals in the UK (and a bunch of other places). From July 16 to 29—until, you know, they run out—there’s going to be some solid discounts on PS5 consoles, both the Standard and the Digital. Got a few friends in Belgium or the Netherlands? Tell ‘em to jump on this too.
Oh, and let’s not forget the games like Gran Turismo 7 and God of War: Ragnarök are also on sale. It’s like Christmas in July, and man, free shipping? I swear, they really know how to reel us in.
In the UK, they’ve cooked up some wacky lease deal for a PS5 Digital Edition starting at £9.95 a month. Sounds almost too good to be true, right? Does anyone else smell a catch? Whatever, you might want to look into it if you’re a PlayStation Plus member in Portugal or Spain for some fine-print goodies.
Okay, okay—some offers switch out on July 29, so it’s one of those blink-and-you’ll-miss-it deals. Supposedly it all wraps by August 13 unless something sells out first. If you’ve got FOMO, the time to act is… now-ish. Or soon-ish.
Finally, I can’t even wrap my head around some legal mumbo jumbo about PlayStation being a credit broker—not a lender. I mean, does anyone really read those tiny disclaimers? Probably should, but anyway, happy gaming or whatever!
