Thank your own personal deity–possibly the Nine Divines–it’s Friday! Whether you’re chasing a hot new release or looking to revisit an old favourite for cheap, I’ve got you covered. From nostalgic remasters to all-out action blockbusters, there’s a bit of something to keep you well amused until I can serve up the next batch of bargains on Monday. Until then, stay safe and save often.
This Day in Gaming 🎂
In retro news, I’m summoning a Fire Elemental to light this 23-candle cake for Heroes of Might and Magic IV. In case you missed it, Heroes of Might and Magic was a turn-based strategy series where we led armies and heroes around a fantastic world, capturing towns and fighting creatures and evil overlords. Hell, in Heroes you could even be a Temu version Sauron.
In addition to elevating hero development and hands-on battlefield tactics, I remember loving the more flexible class system and experimental magic use. Basically, HoMM4 redefined the turn-based strategy game experience through its intricate depth, bold design choices, and enduringly memorable campaigns. Do not waste time wondering if this might be worth a replay; it’s magic.

Nintendo fans can grab Dragon Ball FighterZ for half-price, a title that not only looks like the anime come to life but was built by the legendary Arc System Works, who actually studied the series’ original manga panels to nail its signature visual flair. Graveyard Keeper, meanwhile, leans into the macabre with cheeky humour; its devs at Lazy Bear Games have joked that they basically wanted to make Stardew Valley, “but illegal.”

Exciting Bargains for Xbox
On Xbox Series X, RoboCop: Rogue City lands with a massive 80% off, and fun fact: Peter Weller, the original RoboCop, reprised his role at 76 years old. Dead Space is also a steal; this remake’s devs snuck in an “honourary locker” labelled with former director Glen Schofield’s name.

Pure Scores for PlayStation
Over on PS5, Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart shows off Sony’s SSD wizardry, by letting us dimension-hop in an instant. Interestingly, Insomniac even had to slow down transitions so players wouldn’t miss key plot points. And Red Dead Redemption 2 returns once again to my lists. It’s the Rockstar epic whose horses each have 324 unique animations… yes, even for pooping.

Purchase Cheap for PC
Lastly, on PC, Sunset Overdrive is dirt cheap at $5. It’s a cult hit where Insomniac originally wanted a talking gun voiced by a Morgan Freeman soundalike (?!). And Monster Hunter: World proves it’s still a beast, with Capcom confirming its ecosystems were designed using real-world biology consultants. Still worth scoring, even in the face of MH: Wilds.
