Super Wrestling: A Great Deal for a Sony PlayStation 5 Console, and an Option for an Upgrade from the PlayStation Plus Box to an Entry-Level Essential Plan
If you’re not into baseball, there’s also WWE 2K24, which is easily 2K’s best wrestling game yet. There are new match types, including an ambulance match, a casket match, and a special guest referee in this iteration. The base version is on sale in the store for $48.49, which is $18 off.
Unsurprisingly, you can also find sales on third-party PS4 and PS5 titles spanning multiple genres. For sports game fans looking to pick up a new game, MLB The Show 24 is on sale at Best Buy, Target, and the PS Store for $48.69.
It is one of the best outright discounts we have ever seen for the Sony PlayStation 5. The Slim version has more storage and a slightly different design than the original, which is why we gave the discount for it. The console has amazing graphics and a controller that helps make games more enjoyable. For $50 less, you can get the PS5 Digital Edition (on sale for $400). This may be a better pick if your gaming library is largely digital. It’s possible to add on an external drive for $80, but we believe the added $50 for the included disc drive will save you money over time. Sony allows you to get 12 months of streaming service for free if you purchase through them.
If you subscribe to the service from Sony, you will get 12 months of the online streaming service for free, saving you over $276 over the course of a year.
The Sony PSVR 2 (8/10, WIRED Recommends) comes with some sticker shock, considering the fact that it costs as much as a new console. But this is one of the best deals we’ve seen for the headset, and if you’re into virtual reality gaming, this is an excellent option. It’s easy to use and comfortable, the games library is always expanding. There’s a list of our favorites in our best virtual reality games guide. For $50 more, you can get the PSVR 2 and a game called Horizon Call of the Mountain. If you purchase through Sony, you’ll have a free year of the premium service.
The entry-level Essential plan allows you to download free PS Plus games monthly, which are accessible for as long as you’re a subscriber to PlayStation Plus. It also unlocks multiplayer access in games that require it, exclusive discounts, and advanced console features like cloud storage and Share Play. PS Plus Extra offers the same set of perks as well as access to hundreds of titles that rotation regularly, including those that are part of Ubisoft Plus. If you step up to PS Plus Premium, you can add game trials, cloud streaming, and access to even more PlayStation classics and a selection of Sony Pictures films.
If you miss out on something, there are still good prices on newer titles like Spiderman 2 which is on sale for $48.69 (about $20 off) at Amazon, Best Buy and the PS Store. The digital version is $20 off from the PlayStation Store and the collector’s edition is available for less than the retail price. The latter includes physical extras like a steelbook case and a 19-inch Venom statue featuring Peter Parker and Miles Morales, plus two in-game suits and various skill unlocks.
Final Fantasy VII Rebirth is also worth a look, especially now that it’s on sale for $52.49 (about $18 off) in the PlayStation Store. The modern rendition of Square Enix’s classic JRPG is actually beating the price we recently called out for the physical copy, though you can also pick up the digital deluxe edition on sale for $67.49 (about $23 off).
It’s a good idea to spend your time indoors grinding through levels and battling bosses to start the summer. The Sony Days of Play Sale has arrived, bringing with it discounts on games, consoles, PlayStation Plus subscriptions, and more. These deals run through June 12 and individual discounts can last only until June 12. We’ve rounded up our favorite price drops below.

God of War: The Last of Us: Part III (WIRED Review) is on sale for $40, $20 off the Twelfth
This is one of the best PS5 games you can play. You’ll get to fight baddies as both Peter Parker and Miles Morales (though not simultaneously). The graphics are cinematic, and combat is fluid. Before you head to the game, be sure to check out our list of tips and read more about it in our glowing review.
By now, you’ve probably played The Last of Us: Part II (WIRED Review). If you haven’t, first of all, what are you doing with your life, and second of all, now’s the time—it’s on sale for $40, a $20 discount. You can pick it up for less if you haven’t yet played the sequel. It follows in the original’s footsteps—sometimes well, sometimes poorly—and takes place four years after the first game ends. It’s gruesome and violent. We still think it’s worth playing.
The title dives deeper into narrative details than the previous ones, resulting in a better and more well-rounded experience. God of War has more than 60 accessibility options. It’s a game well worth your time, especially if you’ve played others in the series, and especially at this price.
