The majority of the specials are on both days, but some only on July 12; so you have to act fast! I have prepared below a selection of the most interesting specials in my opinion for you gamers.

If you’re looking for an open world and arcade thrills, Gran Turismo 7 isn’t for you; take a closer look at Forza Horizon 5. If you like simulation games, real cars, their history, playing “tuner” them, then you are in luck with Gran Turismo 7.
The Gran Turismo series is back in style on PlayStation 4 and 5. This special edition contains both versions of the game, so if you’re on PS4 right now, you can eventually upgrade to the PS5 version at no additional cost. Read our full review of the game.

To play Uncharted is to become an actor in an action film with improbable twists. It is not for nothing that the series will be the subject of a feature film coming out in February. Uncharted 4 : Legacy of Thieves Collection contains the last two games in the series as remastered versions for the PS5. The perfect opportunity to discover or rediscover these games and their breathtaking landscapes.
A superb collection of the Uncharted series. If you haven’t discovered it, this is the best way to do it, or just to own the collection on PlayStation 5! Read our full review.

Sackboy is an honest platform game, with a light difficulty but which compensates with a good-natured atmosphere and carried by a thundering soundtrack, which for me is THE highlight of the title. Pleasant to play, it takes on its full meaning in local co-op, but does not reinvent the wheel.
Sackboy is back on PlayStation 5 for his greatest adventure, as this time we offer a rather 2D 3D platformer. Read our full review of the game.
Ubisoft games up to 60% off
Assassin’s Creed Valhalla at $24.95
The famous franchise that was born at Ubisoft Montreal takes us this time to the time of the Vikings and immerses us squarely in their mythology. Read our full review of the game.

Assassin’s Creed Valhalla brings many changes and takes a more mature direction. From the violence of the fighting to the interest of the story which follows this logic, we are witnessing a big evolution. The game forces you to explore, and the many side missions are to be picked up across the map. In short, it no longer takes you as much in hand, but leaves you free, while still offering enormous content.

Far Cry at $39.95
In this installment of the Far Cry series, we have to liberate a nation from a dictator in a Latin American country. Read our full review.

It’s huge, it’s beautiful, technically on top, full of missions, so certainly it won’t surprise you like a Far Cry 3, but the story is good, the characters colorful, the universe pleasant. It remains on familiar ground for regulars, and newcomers will not be lost. It’s a good game, a very good game even which will take you several dozen hours, which offers what is expected of it and which in addition will be enriched with new online missions and allows you to play in co-op.
Version Xbox One et Xbox Series
Riders Republic at $29.95

Pure fun, that’s what Republic Riders can easily sum up. (…) Republic Riders is far from perfect and some things could have done with a little more attention, but it’s still an enjoyable and highly entertaining game. In every sense of the term.

So I highly recommend this game if you are a fan of the franchise, I believe it is worth checking out. If you hate Star Wars, maybe it’s better to skip it since the humor and the references are really the charm of this game. But, for someone like me who falls between the two, I think it’s It’s a rediscovery of this series in very fun and sometimes ridiculous ways that is worth its price given the amount of content to explore.

So when we got together for the new game, we asked ourselves: why is the world so different? We thought it was going to be world peace, but we had no idea of these inequalities that are so problematic today. This game is about happiness and the fact that people today crave happiness. People expect to be happy, but humans are contradictory and one person’s happiness is another person’s unhappiness.
– Charles Cecil
The sequel to the mythical The World Ends with You which was released at the time on the Nintendo DS. This is a role-playing game where you take control of a group of Japanese teenagers in present-day Japan. Unlike its predecessor, this time it’s a 3D adventure with a new graphic style.
