Notably, this isn’t the first timeSony has soldWhat Remains of Edith Finchat a discount, and it isn’t even the best deal it’s been subjected to. No bargain is better than a freebie after all. Still, this deal shouldn’t be taken too lightly. While finding PlayStation 4 games on the cheap isn’t excruciatingly difficult these days, finding a PlayStation 5 title for such a steal is extremely rare, but this comes as no surprise when one considers the console’s newness. It should be interesting to see what effect this deal will have on the game’s lifetime sales.
GivenEdith Finch’s multi-award-winning status, putting it on sale like this is a no-brainer. While sales numbers for the game have not been disclosed, this is nonetheless a great way to generate more revenue and expand the audience of this spooky classic, whether it be by drawing in new players who have never heard of it before, or already interested consumers who refrained for any number of reasons.
What Remains of Edith Finchis available on PC, PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
