IT’S spring in the Northern Hemisphere, so video game stores are scrambling to offer top deals on some of the best titles for each platform.

The PlayStation Store launched its Spring Sale earlier last week, and PS4 and PS5 owners will have a month to grab excellent games at bargain prices.

Red Dead Redemption 2 bundle RDR2 deal — Red Dead Redemption 2 is always a good idea, if you haven’t played it yet

Hogwarts Legacy is also among the best deals at PlayStation’s Spring Sale

We’ve scoured through every offer to pick the best deals in the PlayStation Spring Sale 2024 across a variety of genres.

Here’s a selection of seven games we recommend.

Red Dead Redemption 2 (67% off)

Red Dead Redemption 2 is a must-play western-themed open-world game with a spectacular 97/100 rating on review aggregator Metacritic.

It often goes on sale, but it’s always a great idea to pick up a masterpiece if you haven’t played it yet.

With its realistic style, great story, and graphics that were ahead of their time, it’s a steal to get it for just £18.14 / $19.79.

Star Wars Jedi: Survivor (55% off)

The sequel to Jedi: Fallen Order was marred by technical issues when it launched in April 2023, but one year later these have been resolved.

Set 10 years after the events in The Revenge of the Sith film, it continues the story of young Jedi Cal Kestis in his struggle against the evil Empire.

Now rated 85 on Metacritic, Jedi: Survivor is a great pick for £31.49 / $31.49, instead of the usual £69.99 / $69.99.

Hogwarts Legacy (50% off)

Set in Harry Potter’s Wizarding World in the 19th century, the massive open-world game is every Potterhead’s dream come true.

You can now enroll at the famous school of witchcraft and wizardry for half the admission fee, or just £29.99 / $29.99.

Mortal Kombat 1 (50% off)

The latest game in the fighting series is a competent reboot with great visuals and a wide roster of old and new characters.

MK1’s fresh new mechanics earned it an 83 score on Metacritic and it looks and plays very well on the PS5.

You can grab Mortal Kombat 1 for half its regular price, at £32.49 / $34.99.

PS Plus Premium subscribers can get a free two-hour trial before buying.

Persona 5 Tactica (40% off)

A turn-based strategy game based on the characters and powers from Persona 5, Tactica is worth picking up at a bargain price.

This P5 spin-off is similar to games like XCOM and Mario + Rabbids, but set in Perona 5’s multiverse.

If you’re in for some tactical action, Persona 5 Tactica is £32.99 / $35.99, and you can try it before you buy, if you’re a PS Plus Premium member.

Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth (25% off)

The latest excellent game in the Like a Dragon / Yakuza series, Infinite Wealth goes on sale for the first time since its January 2024 launch.

It retains the new turn-based combat of its 2020 predecessor, and brings back Ichiban Kasuga alongside a story focused on long-time series protag Kazuma Kiryu.

Infinite Wealth is rated 86 for the PS5 (84 on PS4), and you can buy it for £44.99 / $52.49.

Chants of Sennaar (25% off)

A great puzzle adventure, Chants of Sennaar is inspired by the Tower of Babel myth.

You will have you look for clues to decipher the vastly different languages of tribes you meet as you ascend a massive tower-like structure.

The indie game’s original concept is beautifully realised, making it a must-play for avid language learners and puzzle lovers alike.

With an overall rating of 85, the game is definitely worth grabbing for £11.99 / $14.99, and there’s a free demo for everyone to try.

Players have until April 24, 2024, to catch the Spring Sale deals, but there will be a sale refresh on April 10, when some offers will be replaced with new ones.

If you’re looking for more gaming deals, an 88-rated title and 2021’s Game of the Year is having its price slashed by 75%.
