PlayStation horror games on sale for less than $4 for Halloween
PlayStation 4 horror games are on a massive sale for Halloween. The PlayStation Store is brimming with games with prices slashed for the holiday.
With more than 300 game titles, the PlayStation Store Halloween Sale is rearing up to be a promising pitch for those who plan to just chill and stay in for the night. The deals have games for both PlayStation 4 and 5. With the theme of the sale on the holiday, we can expect horror games to be a recurring genre in the list of games on sale. There are titles with more than half of the original price discounted, like Resident Evil 6 (from $19.99 to $7.99), Dead Island Definitive Edition (from $19.99 to $3.99), and 7 Days to Die (from $29.99 to $8.79).
Other game titles are also on promotional sale but do not follow the horror genre, like Divinity: Original Sin 2 – Definitive Edition, Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2, and Mortal Kombat 11 Ultimate + Injustice 2 Leg. Edition Bundle. However, if you’re gaming on a tight budget, we have compiled a list of games that are below $4 that would still be worth your time.
