Okay, so picture this: you’re scrolling aimlessly through the PlayStation Store — again. One sale just ends, and bam, another one’s live before you can even blink. It’s like Sony knows you’re weak. The current gig? Big Games Big Deals or something — promising savings up to a ridiculous 70% on some PS4 and PS5 titles. Crazy, right?
NieR: Automata is a Steal Right Now
So, NieR: Automata — you’ve heard of it? Of course, you have. Anyway, it’s 60% off. Yeah, that’s right, only $15.99 down from like $39.99. But you gotta hurry. The whole thing ends on May 8 at this weirdly specific time — 2:59 a.m. ET. Why? No clue. Guess Sony’s trying to keep us on our toes.
Here’s the gist: aliens show up, start a ruckus with their machine buddies. Naturally, humanity’s brilliant plan involves sending androids to save the day. Enter the YoRHa squad. The game mixes up action and storytelling in a way that’s just…chef’s kiss. Seriously, the reviews from 2017 were glowing.
Now, if you’re snagging the Game of the YoRHa Edition, it’s packed with extras. Ready for the list? Here we go:
- 3C3C1D119440927 DLC (who names these?)
- Play System Pod Skin
- Cardboard Pod Skin (because why not?)
- Retro Grey Pod Skin
- Retro Red Pod Skin
- Grimoire Weiss Pod
- Amazarashi Head Pod Skin
- Machine Mask Accessory
- PS4 Dynamic Theme
- PS4 Avatars, bunch of them
And if you’re like, “Do I really want this?” — there’s a demo freebie on the PS Store. Try before you buy, right?
Back in 2017, the game blew up. Like, on Metacritic you’ll see an 88 score from 101 critics — not too shabby. Oh, and it snagged Best Score/Music at The Game Awards 2017, along with a bunch of other trophies.
So yeah, if you’re into action RPGs, or just love a good deal, keep your eyes peeled for this one. The clock’s ticking!
