Sure thing, let me catch my thoughts. So, PlayStation’s summer madness — feels like just yesterday I was planning my summer break, and now it’s discount season already. Kicking off, like really soon, from July 16, the clocks strike midnight in multiple time zones like some synchronized sale launch. Not sure why they pick these times, but hey, it’s their call.
Anyway, deals galore for digital PS5 and PS4 stuff. Wild discounts on big names: EA Sports FC 25 slashed by 79%. Never imagined I’d see such a cut. Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 — down 45%. I swore I wouldn’t buy another one after the last, but at that price? Tempting. Assassin’s Creed trims 25% off, just the Deluxe though. Forza Horizon 5 gets the same treatment. And something called Clair Obscur — anyone played that? — is 10% off.
Yeah, that’s just the tip of a very chaotic iceberg. More titles in the mix, but they’re being cryptic about it. Guess we’ll know when the sale actually hits. Not much patience over here, but got to wait like everyone else. Oh, and Europe’s in on the fun too. Discounts and promotions fluttering through countries like a summer breeze.
From consoles to games, there’s cash to save — €50/£45 off standard PS5s, and the digital version is sliced by €100/£90. Okay, that’s kind of huge. Games like Gran Turismo 7 and God of War: Ragnarök get their markdown moments too. Free shipping if you buy direct — not too shabby, right?
Folks in the U.K. can lease a PS5 through Flex for a smidge under ten quid a month. Seems like every region’s got its own quirks. And hey, PlayStation Plus folks in Benelux, Portugal, and Spain — you get an extra 5% discount just for being you. Sort of. Just log in while buying, and the savings sneak in automatically.
Heads up though, this sale’s on a timer. New deals replacing old ones at midnight come July 29. Everything wraps by August 13, unless some deals ghost before that. Keep your eyes peeled on the PlayStation Store, as if they didn’t know we’d be there already.
I got distracted — right, small print: Offers end July 29, ‘25. Stock’s limited, so vertical stands might sell separately. Huh, now that’s oddly specific.
And credit stuff — PlayStation’s introducing Raylo Group Limited for flexibility in the U.K., which sounds official and a bit dry, but there it is.
Alright, that’s the scoop. Or at least as much as I can piece together while dreaming of gaming under a sunlit sky.
