Okay, so. You know how things just kinda come and go? One sale’s done and bam, another pops up! That’s exactly what’s happening on the PlayStation Store right now. We’ve got this "Big Games Big Deals" situation going on. It’s like they’re just throwing discounts at us, and honestly, it’s hard to keep up. I don’t know why I get so excited – maybe it’s just me being a sucker for a good game deal. Anyway, you can snag some awesome PS4 and PS5 titles for like, up to 70% off. Pretty wild, right? One that caught my eye was from 2017. I guess nostalgia hit me, or perhaps I’m just a sucker for this title. Who knows.
Oh, right, speaking of which…
NieR: Automata is going for 60% off!
I mean, what? Seriously, the Game of the YoRHa Edition is just sitting there on the PS Store for $15.99. I could barely believe it when I saw it. The usual tag is $39.99. But heads up, this could vanish quicker than morning coffee — it ends about a week from now on May 8, precisely at 2:59 a.m. ET. How do they even pick these times?
Quick sidebar — If you haven’t played NieR: Automata, it’s got this whole “Invaders from another world” storyline. Androids are battling machine lifeforms. Sounds nuts, right? The YoRHa squad is in the thick of it, trying to save the day. And the action? Oh, it’s that type of fast, fluid motion that just gets you hooked. The plot, the character depth, it’s all there. They just nailed it.
Plus, if you spring for the Game of the YoRHa Edition, there’s a whole bunch of extra stuff. DLC, funky skins for your Pod thingies, some cool avatars, and even a PS4 Dynamic Theme. Not gonna lie, I didn’t even know what half of these were before I looked it up, but they sound kinda neat.
Here’s something else: a free demo is sitting there too. So if you’re on the fence, maybe poke around with that first. It’s like trying a sample at the grocery store, you know?
Back when it dropped in 2017, NieR: Automata was like, everywhere. Everyone loved it. And the reviews! Metacritic had it at an 88! I guess critics can be picky, but for them to all agree? That’s something. It scooped up some big-deal awards too: Best Score/Music at The Game Awards, Role-Playing Game of the Year at the D.I.C.E. Awards, and more. So yeah, definitely a big deal if you’re into that kinda thing.
That’s me done rambling. Happy gaming, or hunting for deals, or… whatever floats your boat!
