Days of Play is an annual celebration of all things PlayStation and to celebrate the event the PlayStation Store traditionally offers some of its biggest deals of the year, and that’s very much the case in 2024 with loads of the best PS5 games dropping to their lowest prices ever for a limited time. 

Across the almost 1,000 discounts in the Days of Play 2024 sale, there are dozens of deals costing $20 or less, and these savings aren’t on disposable titles either. Essential PS5 and PS4 games have been sliced as much as 90% off in this digital store sale. My favorite deals include Hi-Fi Rush for $17 (was $29), Deathloop for $11 (was $59) and LEGO Harry Potter Collection for just $2 (was $19) - that’s not a typo, you can get a whole game for two dollars!  

There are so many unmissable deals here that I’m rounding up my favorites down below, and for those who’d prefer a physical disc over a digital download, I’ve also included some of the best PS5 game deals at Amazon and Best Buy. While a few of these cost more than $20, they include discounts on major hits like Spider-Man 2
