Guerrilla Games introduced the world to Aloy and a post-apocalyptic future where technology and unhinged machinery have taken over and had fans hooked and ready for the sequel: Forbidden West, and this sale just made it more affordable than it already is.

Sales are likely to draw more attention from gamers who are pretty stingy, and for good reason, Video games nowadays are expensive which is why waiting or buying a used copy for a little less is more appealing. Despite the price, Horizon Forbidden West is worth it and a worthy successor to the original game and a wonderful demonstration of what the PlayStation 5 is capable of, and of course on PC.

Guerrilla Games is among the subsidiaries of PlayStation Studios, all of their IP belong under the PlayStation umbrella and their titles embody the definition of quality. While Sony is generous enough to drop the original price of the full Horizon Forbidden West Complete Edition which includes the Burning Shores DLC from $60 to $40, there are still other options out there to choose from.

Other major games like Control: The Ultimate Edition that is 75% off which is a massive steal, and Insomniac Games’ Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales Ultimate Edition features both Marvel’s Spider-Man Remastered and Miles Morales for only $38.89 which is $10 cheaper than the standard game that doesn’t have the remastered version of the first game. It is a no-brainer and a gift, older games that are sold as bundles are getting price cuts as well.

Games On Sale Is the Gaming Industry at Its Peak

Fans are loving PlayStation's Extended Play Sale, and maybe more AAA games could get a discount in the future.

Gaming is expensive and there is no getting around that, maybe a massive sale that will cut the price in half or trading games, there is no price for a good and satisfying gaming experience. Developing games is another story entirely, especially triple-A games that have a lot to live up to which entails having more content. Horizon Forbidden West Complete Edition was the first PS5 title to have two discs, an indication of the amount of content and justification for the original launch price.

There is a reason why games can be so expensive, and difficult to acquire in today’s time because it is an expensive investment, and companies need to make income. Bargains and sales don’t mean the quality of a game isn’t worth it but the opposite, companies are willing to drop the price for more users to enjoy.

PlayStation’s Extended Play Sale can get fans excited because of the possibility that they can now afford games that they have been meaning to play but are on the fence about the price. What other big AAA games would you like to see featured in a sale? Let us know in the comments section below!
