Oh man, July’s halfway gone already, and if you haven’t dived into the PlayStation Store’s wild sales, well, you might be living under a rock. Seriously! Discounts everywhere. The best games for PS5 and PS4 — yeah, even that PS5 gem you don’t want to miss.
So, hey! Guess what’s 58% off? Returnal! Yep, Housemarque’s brainchild is slashed down to $29.39 — from a steep $69.99. Crazy, right? You snooze, you lose, though. This deal’s playing hard-to-get until July 17 at, like, 2:59 a.m. ET. Why do they end at odd times anyway?
Okay, picture this: You’re crash-landed on an alien world, everything’s shifting around like a dream after too much pepperoni pizza. That’s Selene’s life now. Poor thing can’t catch a break! Every time she dies, it’s back to square one. This roguelike shooter turns up the heat, changing gear and the whole dang planet each cycle. It’s like the ground keeps moving out from under you and laughing.
Back in 2021 — which feels like ages ago, right? — Returnal got lots of love. The Metacritic crowd gave it an average score of 86. Not too shabby! Plus, it snagged awards left and right. Best Action Game at The Game Awards, and even rocked the Audio Design award at the 25th Annual D.I.C.E. Awards. Sounds like it’s not just about dodging bullets and chaos.
Oh, our thoughts? Nailed it with a perfect 10. For real! Returnal’s a must-have for any PS5 fan. Housemarque spun that roguelike vibe into a AAA masterpiece. It’s got narrative, gameplay, those goosebump moments that keep you coming back. Trust me, this one surprises you on every single level.
