The holiday season is upon us and that means Black Friday is upon us which also means that most (if not all) of the digital storefronts are participating in some type of big sale. The PSN Black Friday sale is happening as we speak and has discounts of up to 40% off and if you’re wondering which games to pick up, here are the best ones that you should definitely consider.
Monster Hunter World: Iceborne Master Edition
Original Price: $59.99
Sale Price: $40.19 (33% off)
The Iceborne expansion has recently been released for Monster Hunter: World and boy, let me tell you. Iceborne greatly expands upon the base game in more ways than one and offers an insane amount of content from brand new locales and monsters, to game-changing features like the Clutch Claw and the Guiding Lands.
If you’ve yet to experience the satisfying grind that Monster Hunter: World has to offer, you can get the base game and the expansion (normally priced for $40) for only $40 –it’s a deal that you cannot miss.
Sure, you have to finish the main game first before jumping into the Master Rank questline in Iceborne but you can still take advantage of things like the Clutch Claw and the Guardian armor to help you breeze through the story.
The Outer Worlds
Original Price: $59.99
Sale Price: $44.99 (25% off)
Developer Obsidian attempted to bring back the love and attention that surrounded Fallout: New Vegas back in the day with a new open-world title that oozed with similarities. Oh, and guess what? Obsidian succeeded.
The Outer Worlds is a fantastic outing that lets the player explore all different kinds of planets with tons of sidequests and branching narratives and everything else that you would expect from the team that brought you New Vegas.
And if you don’t have time to dive into a super-deep RPG then you should know that the Outer Worlds doesn’t ask much of your time. You can complete the main story in about 25 hours or so if you make a beeline for the end.
Resident Evil 2
Original Price: $59.99
Sale Price: $19.79 (67% off)
Capcom remaking the classic survival horror title in 2019 literally changed what a remake could be. Gone are the ugly polygonal graphics of the PS1 and now we have a fully-realized modern remake with outstanding visual and sound design that makes it a truly horrific experience, in the best way possible.
Resident Evil 2 is undoubtedly the best horror game of the year and is one of those titles that is just mechanically solid and gives a much-needed clean-up to an already great game.
At a price of $20, this is an awesome game to buy during this PSN Black Friday sale.
Red Dead Redemption 2
Original Price: $59.99
Sale Price: $29.99 (50% off)
Red Dead Redemption 2 is Rockstar’s massive western open-world third-person shooter that excels in giving players a big world to explore that draws you in with its beautiful landscapes, dense but interesting narrative, and lots of realism –like your character needing to shave and bathe or else they’ll be hairy and dirty.
And with Red Dead Online getting tons of updates alongside the main game, there’s so much content right now in the Red Dead universe.
Go do yourself a favor and play this one over Thanksgiving/Christmas break or something –you won’t regret it if you’re looking for a deep game to sink your teeth into.
Red Dead 2 is a fantastic choice during this PSN Black Friday sale.
Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice
Original Price: $59.99
Sale Price: $38.99 (35% off)
Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice is a new IP from FromSoftware that continues the company’s tradition of releasing hardcore, next-level titles that require tons of patience and skill to get into.
Sekiro is a very hard game but once you grasp the ultra-satisfying moves of your sword by parrying and deflecting, it’s one of the best combat systems that I’ve ever experienced and traversing through the gorgeous areas of Fuedal Japan is absolutely wonderful.
And there you have it, those are some of the best games to buy that are discounted right now as part of the PSN Black Friday sale. Are there any games that you’re definitely going to be picking up over the next few days? Let us know in the comments section!
