PlayStation Flash Sale features discounts on games just in time for Easter

By Robert Workman

Easter weekend is coming up, but that doesn’t mean goodies will be limited to candy and Cadbury chocolate eggs. Sony has a lot to offer, as it’s just begun a huge PlayStation flash sale that’s taking place all weekend long.

During that time, you can snag a number of discounts on top titles, from now through April 22 at 8 AM PDT. That basically gives you three days to clean house on newer releases and older favorites. It’s also worth noting that everyone (including PlayStation Plus members) pays the same price.

Some of the highlights can be found below:

Though the sale may not be as big as Xbox’s Spring Sale, there are more than enough great deals to go around here, particularly if you haven’t picked up some of the big stuff Ace Combat 7, Shadow of the Tomb Raider, Assassin’s Creed Odyssey, or Just Cause 4.  But there are also smaller games in there like Steel Rats and Taiko no Tatsujin: Drum Session.

These deals will come to an end on April 22.

PlayStation 4 in 2019

  • Prelude to Greatness | PlayStation 4's 2019 Lineup

    Prelude to Greatness | PlayStation 4's 2019 Lineup
    The frontrunner for much of the current generation, Sony is having a quieter year in 2019. While preparing for future plans and a possible new console, there's not a whole lot of God of War-tier stuff on the horizon. However, PS4 owners still have plenty of games to look forward to.

  • Days Gone

    Days Gone
    Releasing on April 26, Days Gone is a long in development zombie adventure that has had a mixed reception so far. E3 showings have been underwhelming, but a recent round of previews brought some better thoughts. Here's hoping that this one will surprise gamers when it emerges.

  • Death Stranding

    Death Stranding
    As of right now, Hideo Kojima's Death Stranding is set for a 2019 release. While this probably isn't going to be the case, it's still something that PlayStation owners are greatly anticipating. Perhaps they'll anticipate it even more when they know what type of game it is.

  • Dreams

    Dreams
    Depending on who you are, it's possible you've already been playing Dreams for months. Media Molecules' creation tool will go into a more wide beta this year before patching in single player content in the fall. Considering that we first saw Dreams before the PS4 was out, it's been a long time coming.

  • The Last of Us 2

    The Last of Us 2
    The second chapter in Naughty Dog's post-apocalyptic epic is also on the cards for a 2019 release as of now. We'll see more as the year goes on, but expect at least another trailer in case the game ends up on Sony's next console.

  • MediEvil

    MediEvil
    This remake of the PlayStation 1 classic platformer has been hanging around since 2017, and it could pop up again any day now. Sir Dan was almost one of Sony's mascots back in the day, so only time will tell if gamers respond to him the same way in 2019.

  • Crash Team Racing: Nitro Fueled

    Crash Team Racing: Nitro Fueled
    Moving on to third-party releases, long term PlayStation fans will be eagerly anticipating the return of their kart racer in a remastered state. Crash (and possibly Spyro) will be hopping back into karts for a spruced up grand prix that should retain what people loved about the original CTR.

  • Psychonauts 2

    Psychonauts 2
    Long in development and anticipated for even longer than that, the return of Double Fine's 3D platformer should be cause for celebration among fans. PS4 players, in particular, have already had a taste via the PSVR prequel, Psychonauts in the Rhombus of Ruin

  • Rage 2

    Rage 2
    The surprising sequel to id Software's post-apocalyptic first-person shooter, Rage 2 depicts a very neon pink wasteland that players are eager to jump into. It seems like it won't take too much from the 2010 original, so every PS4 player can jump in fresh.

  • Shenmue 3

    Shenmue 3
    Debuting on the Sony E3 stage several years ago, Shenmue is currently scheduled to return after a long hiatus in 2019. Will you play a game of lucky hit? How are the sailors involved? Is there gameplay this time? We all have to wait to find out.

  • The Outer Worlds

    The Outer Worlds
    Recently making waves due to its Epic Games Store exclusivity, The Outer Worlds is also hitting PlayStation 4 in 2019. Obsidian's stab at a Fallout-esque game in the vein of New Vegas, we're sure plenty of players are eager to try it out after Fallout 76's less than stellar debut.
