The lineup should cover a pretty wide cross-generation spread. Sony also has a refresh set for July 27<\/strong>, when some of the original deals will disappear and a new batch will take their place. Among the names expected to headline the sale are Elden Ring<\/a>, Stellar Blade<\/a>, God of War Ragnar\u00f6k, and Assassin\u2019s Creed Shadows, so it\u2019s probably smart to check prices once at the start and then again after the refresh.<\/p>\n\n

If you buy PlayStation games with any regularity, these are the kind of discounts that are hard to ignore, and they could turn Sony\u2019s PlayStation Store Summer Sale into one of the biggest game-shopping moments of the season. On Sony\u2019s side, it also helps keep players spending during slower release stretches, picking up where June\u2019s Days of Play<\/a><\/strong> left off as the company leans further into digital purchases on newer hardware.<\/p>\n\n

Sony also says it plans to stop producing physical game discs in January 2028<\/strong>, and the business logic isn\u2019t hard to see. It keeps all of the revenue from first-party digital sales and takes roughly a 30% cut from third-party PlayStation Store purchases. By Sony\u2019s numbers, digital purchases now make up around 80% of PlayStation game sales, and more than half of newly sold PS5 systems are digital-only models.<\/p>\n\n

Critics, though, keep arguing that an all-digital future chips away at ownership, used games, consumer choice, and price competition. If you want to look through the sale, you can do it from the PlayStation Store on console or on the web.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
