Sure thing, let’s get into it. So, it’s summer, right? And PlayStation decides, “Hey, why not throw a massive sale?” I mean, classic move. It all kicks off on July 16 — midnight, to be precise. Not sure who stays up just to snag a deal, but hey, more power to you.
What’s on the chopping block? Oh boy, quite a few juicy bits. Like, 79% off on EA Sports FC 25 — seriously, that’s like finding money in your couch. And if you’re into the whole Call of Duty vibe, there’s a 45% slash on that Cross-Gen Bundle thingy. Assassin’s Creed fans, you’re looking at a neat 25% off. But wait, why is Forza in there? Isn’t that a different console? Speculation aside, it’s got the same discount. Some other game, Clair Obscur (nope, I’ve never heard of it either) gets barely 10% off. Guess they didn’t want to be too generous.
And there’s more! Somewhere. But you’d have to hit up the PlayStation Store to find out — they like keeping some secrets until it’s time to shine, apparently.
Meanwhile — and I forget where I was going with this — PlayStation’s doing stuff in Europe too. A whole list of countries: U.K., Germany, the usual suspects. From July 16 to 29, they’ve got something going where you can get €50/£45 off the standard PS5 console. Double that for digital. Gotta love those round numbers.
Other games too, like Gran Turismo 7 and God of War: Ragnarök. Fun times. If you’re ordering direct, they even toss in free shipping, which is nice cuz shipping costs these days feel like a mini heist.
There’s also some weird leasing thing in the UK. Flex? Sounds like a gym membership or a yoga class. £9.95 a month lets you lease a PS5. Sounds nifty, but who knows?
Oh, and a tiny perk for those in Benelux, Portugal, and Spain — 5% extra off if you’re a PlayStation Plus member. It’s the little things, you know?
The catch? Deals switch on July 29, maybe sooner. It’s a game of speed and patience, with a sprinkle of anxiety. Good luck figuring it all out.
