As you can see, there’s a huge amount of games on offer in Sony’s latest sale, but if you’re after any recommendations, I can give you a wee hand there. If you’re in the mood for some scares, I’d highly recommend Tango Gameworks’ underrated survival-horror, The Evil Within for $15, or Creative Assembly’s authentic love-letter to the beloved sci-fi cinematic classic Alien: Isolation for $6.
On the other hand, if you’re after an action-RPG, I’d recommend either Spiders’ GreedFall for $20, or Deck13’s souls-like The Surge 2 for $25. Frankly, there’s a ton of great games in this latest promotion, so it’s hard to go wrong with most of the titles on this list. For those of you who want to check out Sony’s latest sale in full, though, you can go ahead and do so here.
