There’s always something exciting on the PS Store, regardless of the day of the week. Whether you’re gaming on a PS4 or a cutting-edge PS5, there are enticing deals to be discovered. Right now, Lovecraftian horror enthusiasts are in for a real treat with an outstanding offer in the adventure game category.
Currently, The Sinking City for PS5, crafted by Frogwares, is enjoying a staggering 90% discount on the PS Store for PlayStation Plus members. This brings the price down to a mere $4.99. If you’ve been eyeing this game, now’s the time to make your move, but don’t wait too long—the deal expires on April 10.
“The Sinking City unfolds as an adventure and investigation game, set in an open world steeped in the eerie atmosphere of H.P. Lovecraft’s horror tales,” describes the game’s promotional blurb. “The city of Oakmont is partially submerged and under the sway of supernatural forces. Stepping into the shoes of a private investigator, you must unravel the mystery that has entangled the city and its residents.”
When it first landed on the PS4 back in 2019, The Sinking City garnered a fair amount of attention, receiving a mixed but respectable response. Metacritic, the review aggregation site, reports an average score of 71 based on 47 critic reviews.
The PS5 iteration of The Sinking City offers a few notable enhancements over the original PS4 version. Gamers can experience it in stunning 4K resolution, enjoy a smooth 60 frames per second, and take advantage of improved visuals and DualSense support.
In a thrilling announcement, Frogwares revealed their plans for The Sinking City Remastered, an upgraded edition of the game built with the powerful Unreal Engine 5. Even better, those who already own the current PS5 version will receive this remastered upgrade free of charge. This limited-time offer for the PS5 version provides not only immediate gaming enjoyment but also sets you up for the remaster when it drops. Remember, though, this deal applies only to the PS5 version, leaving the PS4 version out of the loop.
