Sony’s got your wallet in a vice, and it’s tightening its grip. As the PS Store’s scale has expanded over the past decade, so too has the scope of its sales – and this latest round of discounts sees over 1,000 items reduced. The headline inclusion is The Last of Us: Part I and The Last of Us Remastered, which have been seen their prices slashed in response to the popularity of the show; you can grab the PS5 remake for $59.99/£52.49 and the PS4 remaster for $9.99/£7.99. Bargain!
Other standouts include the excellent martial arts game – and one of our favourites from 2022 – Sifu for just $25.99/£21.44, while the Deluxe Edition of fellow brawler King of Fighters XV can be had for $38.24/£31.49 with a PS Plus subscription. If you’re not in the mood for fist fights and want something a little more laidback – but poignant all the same – What Remains of Edith Finch will set you back just $4.99/£3.99, and that includes the recently revamped PS5 version.
Then there are savings on some recommended releases you may have missed, like Shin-chan: Me and the Professor on Summer Vacation – that’s just $29.99/£29.99. As always, you can find the full list of discounts on the PS Store, so have a browse and see what takes your fancy – but be sure to check back in the comments section and let us know what you picked up and why!

That sale price for for TLOU part 1 though - still £10 more expensive than I can easily find a pre-order for the PC version (as in, without resorting to cheap PSN credit shenanigans)
For anyone who hasn't played what remains of Edith Finch, it's an amazing game and on ps plus extra.
Yeah, that's me buying The Last of Us Part 1, then. I actually just hit 1.000 stars yesterday, so that will help a little as well.
I must not buy more games!
I must not buy more games!
I must not buy more games!
... But it's only a fiver, and look that ones only two quid... Could get half dozen games I want for almost nothing.
Damn you Sony for testing my resolve.
Art of Rally for a fiver was my only purchase from this one 👍
My backlog is now 80 games, ahead of all the stuff releasing this year I’d be mad to add to that…
Checks wishlist and wallet
@danlk1ng £26 for Last of Us Part 1 sounds fair enough for anyone interested (Turkey PSN)
Finally snagged The Last of Us remastered, will play it now (after Witcher 3) for the first time and buy the remake in two years for a second playthrough
@Gamer_Guy Isn't it a tenner (unless, you don't refer to UK store...)
@Gamer_Guy I mean, I could quite easily get it for that by buying it on a turkish storefront for Steam as well - I deliberately only compared legitimate means of buying the game for UK consumers, rather than advocate a practice that only pushes up the prices for poorer countries
@danlk1ng i only paid £48 on launch for a physical copy.
Digital prices in the UK are often a scam.
Dang. One of these days Dark Souls 3 will go on sale again…
Grabbed Thymesia for some Soulsborne action. Really good so far and does enough different to stand on its own in the combat department. Cool little game.
Renting the last of us part 1 currently....very glad I didn't buy for it....it's ridiculously priced
@Americansamurai1 I loved WRoEFinch so much, but wouldnt pay for 2hrs walking game, played it on PS extra
59.99 is not a bargain for TLOU part 1. Lol
Nothing on my wishlist is on sale, though, admittedly, the vast majority of it is games that have yet to release. Still, I'm hoping The Last Of Us part 2 goes back on sale for $9.99. I didn't pull the trigger on it when I saw it at that price a sale or two ago and I knew I should have. :-/
Ikaruga
£3.99
Nuff said.
@NotTelevision This isn't PC, it's on sale all the time! Most recently like 6 weeks ago.
@danlk1ng You paid much more to buy a decent PC to play that. Plus, it was 49 during the last sale.
@Grimwood Not sure you're thinking that though correctly. Game prices ALWAYS decrease over time. As just one example, TLOU pt. 2 was $59.99 MSRP when it released and now is $39.99 MSRP. Publishers don't expect games to hold their initial MSRP over time. Ever. Some may have a stronger shelf-life to their initial MSRP (COD titles are a good example), but ALL will come down in price the longer they are out. Another example? Bloodborne. Initial MSRP was $59.99, now it's $19.99. Jus' sayin'....... Besides, I was referring to a sale price so I'm not entirely sure where your comment came from?
I’m sorry PS but you’re not being sensitive to the current state of the economy and many peoples wallets when you say £52 is a bargain for a remake of a 10 year plus old game. I’m not looking for a ban but I do think you do owe a little restraint and balance between your just love for all things PlayStation and the loyal users that keep it alive.
£52 for a video game is not a bargain.
Well this is odd. I would love to play Shin Chan: Me and the Professor on Summer Vacation, but the game is not available in the PS Store of my region (Netherlands). Does anyone know more about this?
@lindos they are saying the $10 ps4 remaster is a bargain.
I think I’ll pick up Bloodwash and the Livonia expansion for DayZ this sale.
Bought Wattam. It's bliss.
TLOU: P1 is literally the same price as when it was first released, I believe. Sony is truly capitalizing on it but it's a benefit to bring more players into TLOU universe I guess. I don't approve of the current price even with a discount.
Presumably the bargain for TLOU is the remaster? £52.49 is not a bargain. I picked this up physically for £36.99 (actually £31 with a gift card) months ago.
TLOU Part 1 is MORE expensive (on sale right now) than Elden Ring at LAUNCH in my region. Sony can fek off with their ridiculous prices
Nothing for me, thankfully.
My backlog is huge atm so I wanna clear some of that before adding to it.
I may pull the trigger on TLOU P1R when it’s 40€ or less. It’s 59€ now with the discount. I bought but still haven’t played the remaster and the part 2. I enjoy the show but I’m thinking to skip it to avoid more spoilers
