If you’re unfamiliar with Golden Week, it’s a week towards the end of April where there’s a cluster of holidays celebrated in Japan. It starts off in celebration of the birthday of Emperor Showa, who passed away in 1989.

There are literally thousands of deals for you to weed through, but a handful of popular JRPGs are currently on sale—namely those from Square Enix:

  • Chrono Trigger (-50%/$7.49)
  • World of Final Fantasy (-50%/$12.49)

  • Final Fantasy XIII (-50%/$7.99)
  • Final Fantasy XV Windows Edition (-50%/$24.99)
  • World of Final Fantasy (-50%/$12.49)

Final Fantasy VII and IX, two of the most beloved games in the series, are passed over during this sale, likely due to their recent Switch ports.
