The story so far

More than 90 PS5 and PS4 titles are discounted in the PlayStation Store’s expanded Summer Sale, with some physical copies reduced by up to 57 %. The promotion also lists over 70 additional games for North America and Europe, pushing the total catalogue of discounted titles past the 90‑game mark. IGN reports that Target is offering the 57 % markdown on select physical PS5 games, while Notebookcheck notes the sale launching simultaneously on Amazon and Best Buy amid consumer outrage over Sony’s announced end of disc production. Kotaku frames the event as a timely chance to stock up before physical media disappears.

The second round of the store’s “SUMMER SALE” adds high‑profile releases such as Street Fighter 6 and Dragon Quest VII Reimagined Digital Deluxe Edition, according to Saiga NAK. Collectors and budget‑conscious gamers are the primary beneficiaries, with GAMINGbible highlighting three iconic first‑person shooters priced under $3 each for a limited time. Push Square lists more than 90 titles across PS5 and PS4, and also a separate tally of 70‑plus games for the North American and European markets, underscoring the breadth of the deal. The next steps hinge on Sony’s rollout schedule for ending disc production, a timeline that the sale’s promotions implicitly reference.

Observers will watch for official statements from Sony regarding the phase‑out, as well as for follow‑up discounts that may emerge once the current inventory clears. Early indications suggest that the physical market could tighten quickly, making the current sale a focal point for collectors looking to preserve disc‑based libraries.
