First PlayStation sale of 2026 has PS5 games from $4 — here’s 15 deals I’d buy now
PlayStation Store's January sale discounts must-play PS5 games
PlayStation Store has launched its first sale of 2026, and it's a big deal. Fittingly called the Holiday Sale, it runs through January 21 and offers savings across a range of the biggest PS5 games of the last 12 months, as well as bargain bin prices on some older, but still excellent, favorites.
Loads of the most popular and critically acclaimed games of 2025 are reduced. That includes Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 (was $49 now $39), Dispatch (was $29 now $26) and ARC Raiders (was $39 now $31).
Meanwhile, if you're looking for the cheapest PS5 deals, you can pick up the likes of Hogwarts Legacy for $10, or Fallout 4 for just $4, which is perfect if you've been streaming "Fallout" season 2 on Prime Video.
There are more than 4,500 deals in this PlayStation Store sale, so to save you the headache of scrolling through endless pages of discounts, I've collected my top picks below. I've also found some great PS5 deals at Amazon for those who prefer physical discs to digital downloads.
