There’s never been a better time to give your games library a spring clean and make room for some banger new titles. Whether you’re chasing chill vibes, story-rich sagas, or gloriously chaotic co-op, my deals listicle offers a little something for everyone (and at low gil prices). Let’s dig into the standout gems across Nintendo Switch, Xbox Series X, PS5, and PC.
This Day in Gaming 🎂
In retro news, I’m celebrating the 15th birthday of my huckleberry, the rootin’ tootin’ Red Dead Redemption. To tell the tale true, I’ve got vivid memories of my launch ride being a bumpy one—where the low end of bugs were freezes and the spectacular high watermark belonged to Donkey Ladies (rideable NPCs spawned with human bodies and ass faces). Patched-out nightmare fuel aside, RDR became a blessed Western odyssey and another notch in Rockstar’s gunbelt for touchstone gaming experiences. Us veteran cowpokes still swap campfire stories about our first “ride to Chuparosa (Mexico)” moment.

On Switch, Sea of Stars is a steal at A$33, a modern retro RPG made by the devs behind The Messenger. Meanwhile, the Scribblenauts Mega Pack (just A$4!) is perfect for creative chaos; mainly because you can summon Cthulhu.

Exciting Bargains for Xbox
Xbox Series X owners can grab Lies of P for A$58, a twisted Pinocchio-inspired Soulslike that started life as a small studio’s dream and went on to snag multiple Game of the Year nominations. Crisis Core: FF VII Reunion (A$46) is a polished prequel featuring one of the most melodramatic sword exits in JRPG history.

Pure Scores for PlayStation
Over on PS5, Final Fantasy XVI (A$44) trades party combat for full-blown Eikon duels of Kaiju scale. And if you’ve not played Astro Bot (A$89), know this: it’s essentially a love letter to PlayStation history with more Easter eggs than a Cadbury factory.

Purchase Cheap for PC
On PC, Helldivers 2 (A$41) is peak co-op carnage(because your own squad is often more dangerous than the enemy) and Inside (a ridiculous A$3) is a dark, beautiful indie darling that ends in a way you definitely won’t predict.
