These Amazon Prime Day PS5 game deals are so good that I'm seriously worried I'll run out of shelf space
Save up to $42!
Amazon Prime Day is always an excellent time to stock up on physical video games and this year is no exception. If you're looking for some of the latest and greatest PlayStation 5 titles at massively reduced prices, then you only need to read on for a selection of some of my favorites.
The most jaw-dropping deal right now is a huge discount on the recently released Shin Megami Tensei 5: Vengeance. It's on sale for just $39.99 (was $59.99) at Amazon, which is a new lowest-ever price. Best of all, that's the 'launch edition' of the game so comes with some DLC and a pretty steelbook case. I bought this enhanced port of Shin Megami Tensei 5 at full price back when it launched last month and, while I'm having a great time playing though it now, this huge discount has really made me wish that I had waited.
Elsewhere, you can secure Demon's Souls for just $29.99 (was $69.99) at Amazon. That's a $40 discount on a lavish remake of the precursor to the Dark Souls series. It's one of the absolute best looking games on PS5 and shouldn't be missed if you want to see some of the most impressive visuals that the console has to offer.
Another Sony-published gem, Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart, is also available for just $29.99 (was $69.99) at Amazon. That's another massive $40 discount, this time for a family-friendly platforming adventure. This is another absolute stunner too, with gorgeous stylised graphics.
You also shouldn't miss a huge saving on Final Fantasy 16, which is on sale for just $28.49 (was $49.99) at Amazon. This is a new lowest-ever price for the award-winning title at the retailer. While it's an excellent pick for anyone who loves fantasy stories, Game of Thrones fans will definitely get a lot of enjoyment out of this one thanks to its similar narrative and tone.
There's a good discount on Returnal too, a time-looping action adventure game that takes place on a mysterious alien world. It's on sale for just $29.99 (was $69.99) at Amazon, which is under half price.
You can also pick up The Last of Us Part 1 for just $39.99 (was $69.99) at Amazon. This legendary story-focused zombie survival game almost needs no introduction, especially thanks to the popular TV show adaptation. This is your chance to try out the source material for less.
Finally, there's the most budget-friendly pick of the bunch: Sonic Superstars. The most recent Sonic game, this colorful platformer is on sale for just $17.99 (was $59.99) at Amazon. With 26 levels to master and loads of room for replays, this is one that will keep you busy for quite awhile for under $20.
These are just some of the Amazon Prime Day deals on offer this year, but are all excellent picks that I think offer the best value for PS5 owners. You can learn more about each offer below.
