This past week, Sony launched the year’s biggest PlayStation Store sale, which is called the Summer Sale promotion. With over 4,000 items discounted, it’s hard to sift through the good deals or find the good games.

This is where we come in. Listed below are the top 13 best games you can pick up from the sale.

The shovelware and clone games on the PlayStation Store is fooling people into buying fake games.

Note that this doesn’t mean these are the games with the best discounts, but more so the best games that you should consider getting, since they are just so damn fun to play.

PSN Store Summer Sale: Best Games To Buy

In no particular order, here are the top games you want to consider buying in the sale:

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 ($44.99 at -10%) – Possibly the year’s best game, and a sure-fire Game of the Year candidate. This proves it doesn’t take a big studio to craft an amazing experience. Read our review.

Ghost of Tsushima ($29.39 at -58%) – Sucker Punch’s samurai open-world game. This is the Director’s Cut, so this includes the DLC. Read our review.

The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion Remastered ($39.99 at -20%) – More of a remake than a remaster, this overhauls gameplay mechanics, though there might be performance issues to deal with.

Baldur’s Gate 3 ($55.99 at -20%) – Larian’s breakthrough RPG. Content support has ended, but it’s pretty much complete as it is. Read our review.

Helldivers 2 ($31.99 at -20%) – Arrowhead’s live-service hit that’s still getting a ton of support via updates, Warbonds, and more on the way. Read our review.

Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 ($39.89 at -43%) – Insomniac’s sequel to the first Spider-Man. Must-play for PlayStation fans. Read our review.

Alan Wake 2 ($4.49 -85% ) – One of the best games of 2024, and this elevates the Alan Wake franchise to new heights. It’s not just a horror game, but it also uses FMV (full-motion video) to great effect. Read our review.

Elden Ring ($35.99 at -40%) -FromSoftware’s most popular work. This doesn’t go on sale on PSN often, so get it while you can.

Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 ($7.99 -80%) – Warhorse’s best-selling sequel to the first medieval action-RPG. Read our review.

The latest PS5 system update had a stealth change that improved one particular feature in the PSN Store.

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle ($55.99 at -20%) – MachineGames’ former Xbox exclusive that provides an authentic India Jones experience all without cribbing the Uncharted franchise.

Silent Hill 2 ( $34.99 at -50%) – Bloober Team masterfully remakes Silent Hill with modern game mechanics without losing the game’s essence. Read our review.

Metaphor ReFantazio ( $41.99 at -40%) – One of the best games of 2024, it’s an Atlus RPG but not Persona. Read our review.

Stellar Blade ( $49.69 at -29%) – Best-selling debut console game from Shift Up. Ran into controversy due to the protagonist, but it’s still a solid game.

Again, there are games with deeper discounts in the sale, but when it comes to new titles and those that don’t often receive discounts, this list covers them.
