The 20 biggest verified PS5 & PS4 game discounts in the US PlayStation Store this week, checked against full price history. Updated August 2026.

20 PS5 & PS4 games in the US PlayStation Store currently at their lowest tracked price ever — the buy signal only full price-history can give. As of August 2026.

20 genuinely good PS5 games on sale under $10 in the US PlayStation Store, ranked by discount and verified against price history. Updated August 2026.

Almost every PlayStation game eventually gets cut. Across 5,639 paid titles tracked in the US store since November 2020, 96% have been discounted at least once. This is a look at the 228 that have not, and the four reasons a price refuses to move.

The same PS5 game does not cost the same everywhere. We took 2,309 titles, pulled their list price in all 46 PlayStation Store regions we track, converted every price to US dollars and took the median. The spread between cheapest and dearest is 35%.

We pulled the global earn rate for 9,859 platinum trophies. Just 65 sit below 0.1%. The strongest predictor of a rare platinum is not how hard the game is, it is whether the trophy list requires online play, which appears in half of all ultra-rare platinums and one in twenty common ones.

Free games with platinum trophies are the cheapest way to grow a trophy list, but most lists of them are wrong. We counted every free title in the US PlayStation Store: 361 are genuinely free, 283 have trophies, 177 have a platinum, and the difference between the good ones and the traps is enormous.

Almost half of the paid PlayStation catalogue has been under $10 at some point, including Bloodborne, Persona 5, Metal Gear Solid V and Civilization VI. This is what the lowest recorded prices actually look like, and how to be there when they happen again.

A PS Store price tracker exists because Sony's own "-70%" badge tells you nothing about whether a price is good. Here is how PlayStation price history is actually recorded, how to read it, and how the main trackers compare.

Deleting a game from your PS5 does not delete your purchase and does not delete your save. Here are the exact menu steps, what is really eating your storage, and how deleting, USB drives, an internal M.2 SSD and redownloading actually compare.

"Survival game" means three incompatible things, and most lists mix them together. Here are the best survival games on PS5 sorted by which one you actually want, plus why this genre rewards price tracking more than any other.

The Atelier series has run for nearly 30 years and 25-plus games, but it is not one long story. It is a stack of self-contained trilogies, and knowing which one to start with is the whole trick.
