Newly Released PS4, PS5 Platformer Gets Early Discount on PS Store

Wow, uh, so here’s a thing that happened today. PlayStation kicked off this thing called Days of Play, right? It’s like a big sale fest or whatever on PS5 and PS4 stuff. Games, accessories, consoles—you name it. Oh, and they’ve got this PS1 remaster in the mix that’s sort of jazzed up from its original version.

So, here’s a kinda random highlight: this game, Croc: Legend of the Gobbos—ring any bells? It’s like, 25% off right now on the PS Store, which cuts the price down to $22.49. Ah, but if you’re an impulse buyer, heads up, the deal’s not gonna last forever. I’m talking June 12 at, like, 2:59 a.m. ET. Oddly specific, huh?

Anyway, Croc’s backstory or whatever—some cute, scrappy little croc, with a flappy backpack and honestly, an endearing butt wiggle—he just hops around a bunch of bizarre worlds. Picture this: running, leaping, tail spinning all over the place to save his Gobbo pals from this dastardly villain, Baron Dante, and his minions. This villain’s squad is called Dantini or something—seriously, who comes up with these names?

When they launched Croc’s remaster recently, the whole reception thing was a bit of a mixed bag. Metacritic says it’s got like a 67 average, and that’s from 15 reviews. So… not exactly game of the year, but hey, it’s a decent nostalgia trip if that’s your jam?

Flashback to 1997: Croc was kind of a thing on the PS1, Sega Saturn, and PC. Now, sure, the remaster’s getting some shoulder shrugs, but many still say it’s a solid blast from the past if you’re into those retro 3D platformers.

Also, just throwing it out there—Sony’s got a boatload of discounts happening till June 11. There’s a 33% cut on a 12-month PS Plus for fresh subscribers and deals on consoles and accessories. Maybe worth a peek if you’re a PlayStation-head. Stay tuned or something; more PS4 and PS5 deals might just pop up. Who knows?
