Wow, so get this — July 11 rolls around and all of a sudden, PlayStation Plus folks are swimming in discounts. Just like, 200 games slashed in price out of nowhere! But, ah, the catch? Gotta be a PS Plus member at any level for the weekend it’s live. Then, I guess the rest of the world joins this party a week later, just a tad late to the game. Typical, right?
So these lucky PS Plus members — you know, those Essential, Extra, Premium, whatever levels they’ve got — had until July 15 to snag these goodies. And yeah, if you’re into discounts (who isn’t?), there was also this “July Savings” and a “Games Under $20” sale happening till July 16. A smorgasbord of savings, I kid you not. And oh, let’s not forget about the monthly games on offer through PS Plus. Games like Diablo 4 for Essential users? Heck yes.
Anyway, somewhere in this whole chaos, some old-school PS5 owners were kinda bummed from the Ghost of Yotei stream. Why? No idea, but something during that stream left them feeling like the unpopular kid in school.
Okay, so back to those discounts — or was it the games? Whatever. PS Plus users got this early bird access to all sorts of stuff: sports simulators, survival horror, even multiplayer shooters. And let me tell you, some deals were crazy cheap. Like, Borderlands 3 for less than a fancy latte. And Skyrim, which never seems to go away, is super affordable too. Also, hey, if RoboCop: Rogue City is your thing, it got cheaper just before some expansion launched mid-July. Spooky timing or pure coincidence? Who knows.
And about these discounts — Elden Ring knocking a chunk off the regular price. Silent Hill 2 Remake? Half-off, baby. Seriously, some of these prices were so low I almost wondered if it was a glitch. But no, just good old sales magic.
So, what’s next? Well, just keep an eye on that PS Store, you know? Deals pop up all the time. Between new additions like Cyberpunk 2077 on those Extra and Premium tiers, who can actually keep track? Not me, that’s for sure.
