Save Big On PS5 Exclusive Games, Great Accessories, And More
This month is largely about Tears of the Kingdom–but if you’re a PS5 owner, there are still tons of great games to check out. In fact, there’s a surprising number of great deals going on that make it easy to pick up blockbusters you may have missed over the past year.
Elden Ring, which is down to just $48 and is one of the lowest prices we’ve yet to see for the 2022 Game of the Year. It offers a world that’s just as sprawling and mysterious as Tears of the Kingdom, making it a good (albeit difficult) alternative for PS5 owners. You can also snag a preowned copy of God of War: Ragnarok for $40, which is another open-world epic that’s every bit as fun as Elden Ring.
Beyond those juggernauts, you’ll find The Callisto Protocol for $25 (down from $50), Deathloop for $20 (down from $60), and Forspoken for $30 (down from $70). The latter was met with mixed reviews at launch, but it’s definitely worth checking out now that its price is radically reduced. It’s a bit rough around the edges, but its magical world and unique combat system are worth the new price of admission.
Games are seeing the best discounts right now, but there are a handful of accessories worth considering, too. The premium SteelSeries Arctis Nova 7P Wireless Gaming Headset is now just $155 (down from $180), while the Razer BlackShark V2 X Gaming Headset is listed for $49 (down from $60). And if you need to expand your internal SSD, check out this 1TB model from WD Black, which is $90 (down from $180).

PS5 Console Final Fantasy 16 Bundle Is Up for Preorder
If you’ve been holding off on getting a PS5, but are eager to play Final Fantasy XVI when it comes out on June 22, here’s some good news. You can pick up a bundle that includes a PS5 disc console, plus the upcoming Final Fantasy installment, all for $559.99. That represents a $10 discount off buying the items separately, but you also get the awesome Final Fantasy PS5 box. So it’s probably worth grabbing, all things considered.
Where to Preorder the PS5 Final Fantasy XVI Bundle
The PS5 is an excellent console that continues to dominate Xbox Series X|S this generation. Final Fantasy XVI is shaping up to be a massive, epic adventure involving warring kingdoms and powerful crystals that must be destroyed. It’s also a PS5 exclusive, at least for the first six months after launch. Check out our Final Fantasy 16 preorder guide for information about what comes in the various editions and how much they cost.
You can find out more about the game in our exclusive Final Fantasy XVI interview with the game’s director, and be sure to check out our Final Fantasy XVI hands-on preview. That ought to tell you everything you need to know about whether it’s your kind of game or not.

RIP PS5 PlayStation Plus Collection, which introduced me to one of my favourite games
“So there’s this stat in Bloodborne called Insight,” I’d tell anyone that would listen. “It governs the amount of inhuman knowledge you’ve gleaned from the world as you slaughter unnatural abominations.” So far, so videogame-y; you kill something, or use an item, and numbers go up. So what? “But Insight isn’t just used to summon other players and stuff – it changes the world. It’s maddening. Frightening.” By this point, the strangers at the bar I’m in have wandered off, circling their fingers next to their temples to indicate I’m nuts to their giggling friends. And maybe they’re right – Bloodborne really got in my head.
But that Insight stat… I’ve never come across anything quite like it. Every major boss you’d kill would confer a little more Insight to you, and if you went out of your way to explore the game and break the loop a little away from the expected path, you could very quickly gain a significant amount of knowledge about Bloodborne’s dying, fucked-up world.
It manifests passively – maybe certain enemies become more powerful as you begin to understand their real function in this world. Maybe certain NPCs start mumbling apparently innocent nonsense. Maybe you start to see the creatures that are really in charge of the world, clinging to the belfries of cathedrals or skulking about in the shadows. Maybe otherworldly abominations start singing, wretchedly off-key, whenever you’re nearby – cooing bastardised hymns to the terrors beyond all that we can actually see.
