There’s a huge new PlayStation Store sale right now that focuses on the hidden gems of the digital storefront. The sale has games up to 75% off and will come to an end on May 20, 8 AM PT. Appropriately titled “Hidden Gems Sale,” it features some fantastic titles that you cannot miss out on.
If you don’t feel like scrolling down the entire list right now, we’ve compiled a list of the best games to buy during the Hidden Gems Sale.
The Messenger
Original Price: $19.99
Sale Price: $9.99
The Messenger is a rad 2D sidescroller that draws inspiration from classic retro action games like Ninja Gaiden, Castlevania, and Mega Man. You get to run across several different themed areas as a super-fast ninja who’s on a mission to deliver a special ancient scroll.
It’s one of the best platformers in recent memory that can stand right next to other retro indie juggernauts like Shovel Knight.
You can grab The Messenger right now for just $10 and remember, there’s even free beach-themed DLC that adds more content.
The Jackbox Party Pack Games
Yes, all six of The Jackbox Party Pack games are currently on sale on the PSN store and there is literally no better time to play this since there’s not much else to do in the world right now.
The Jackbox games are truly special multiplayer experiences as everyone can simply join in on the fun with any smartphone and play games that require you to have random trivia knowledge or the ability to make comedic t-shirts.
You can purchase all of them for around $100 during this sale, but you can grab the latest entry right here for $19.49.
Indivisible
Original Price: $39.99
Sale Price: $23.99
Indivisible is a quirky little action-RPG/platformer hybrid with a story that is soaked in East Asian influence.
Its hand-drawn art style is simply gorgeous to see in action and the varied cast of characters by your side are all unique and extremely likable, and the music isn’t half bad either.
Indivisible is one of the sleeper RPG hits from 2019 so do yourself a favor and check it out during this PSN Hidden Gems sale.
Control
Original Price: $59.99
Sale Price: $29.99
Control comes from the same talented team that worked on Alan Wake and Quantum Break, two very distinct adventure games that ooze with style. Control is no different as you can control a young woman named Jesse who finds herself with supernatural gifts.
Explore the always-changing environments of The Oldest House as you uncover some dark secrets. Control ended up winning tons of GOTY awards last year and even ended up with a new piece of story DLC.
If you missed out on this trippy action title, now is the time to pick it up and see what all of the fuss is about.
Journey to the Savage Planet
Original Price: $29.99
Sale Price: $17.99
Journey to the Savage Planet takes what made Metroid Prime so excellent such as the first-person exploration, meaningful backtracking, and power-ups, and then turns that style on its head with a wacky world full of ridiculous creatures and items.
Journey to the Savage Planet’s entire campaign can be played with a second person as well, so if you’re looking for some entertaining and enjoyable online co-op, this is a great pick during the Hidden Gems sale this month.
