PS Store Slashes Halo, Spider-Man 2, Black Flag & 500+ More

A major new PlayStation Store sale has gone live, cutting prices across hundreds of PS5 games and putting some surprisingly recent releases on sale alongside Sony’s biggest first-party titles.

Halo: Campaign Evolved, Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced, Marvel’s Spider-Man 2, Gran Turismo 7, Hades II and The Witcher 3 are among the standout names appearing in the latest wave of discounts. Several offers are scheduled to remain available until October 7, 2026, although prices and participating games vary between PlayStation Store regions.

For players in India, the sale is particularly interesting because several relatively new releases have received their first meaningful price cuts. Halo: Campaign Evolved has dropped 20% from ₹4,999 to ₹3,999, while Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced is down 10% from ₹4,199 to ₹3,779. Hades II, meanwhile, has received a 30% reduction from ₹2,497 to ₹1,747.

The US PlayStation Store is running its own substantial set of discounts at the same time. Sony’s official storefront currently lists games including Resident Evil Requiem at $48.99 instead of $69.99, Forza Horizon 5 at $23.99 instead of $59.99 and Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 at $34.99 instead of $69.99.

Some of the best PS5 deals available right now

The scale of the promotion matters less than the quality of the games being discounted. Instead of focusing only on the total number of titles, these are some of the deals that stand out across the US and Indian PlayStation Stores.

  • Halo: Campaign Evolved — ₹3,999, down from ₹4,999 in India (20% off)
  • Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced — ₹3,779, down from ₹4,199 in India (10% off)
  • Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 — ₹2,499, down from ₹4,999 in India (50% off)
  • Hades II — ₹1,747, down from ₹2,497 in India (30% off)
  • Horizon Forbidden West Complete Edition — ₹2,839, down from ₹3,999 in India (29% off)
  • Forza Horizon 5 Standard Edition — $23.99, down from $59.99 in the US (60% off)
  • Forza Horizon 5 Premium Edition — $39.99, down from $99.99 in the US (60% off)
  • Resident Evil Requiem — $48.99, down from $69.99 in the US (30% off)
  • Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 — $34.99, down from $69.99 in the US (50% off)
  • No Man’s Sky — $23.99, down from $59.99 in the US (60% off)

Those prices should be treated regionally rather than converted directly between currencies. Sony maintains different base prices and promotions across markets, meaning a $69.99 game in the United States does not automatically receive the same percentage discount as its ₹4,999 Indian counterpart.

Players can check the complete selection currently available to their account through the official PlayStation Store Deals page. Indian users should switch to their local storefront before purchasing, since availability and pricing can differ substantially.

Halo is already getting its first major PS5 discount

Halo: Campaign Evolved is arguably the most interesting inclusion, not because 20% is the deepest discount in the sale, but because of how new the game is.

The PS5 version is currently available for ₹3,999 in India, down from its regular ₹4,999 price. The promotion is listed through October 7 and marks the lowest Indian PlayStation Store price recorded for the game so far.

That is notable for a release that carries considerably more significance on PlayStation than an ordinary remake. Halo spent decades as one of the defining Xbox franchises before Microsoft’s multiplatform strategy finally brought the series to Sony’s console.

A 20% reduction this early therefore gives PS5 owners who resisted buying Halo at launch a considerably cheaper entry point, while also showing how aggressively major publishers are now using digital storefront promotions even for relatively recent releases.

Black Flag Resynced and Hades II are getting early discounts too

Halo is not the only recent release receiving an unusually early price cut.

Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced has dropped from ₹4,199 to ₹3,779 on the Indian PlayStation Store, representing a 10% reduction. The discount is modest compared with some of the older games in the promotion, but it is the lowest recorded Indian PS Store price for the standard edition so far.

Hades II offers a substantially stronger deal. Supergiant’s sequel is currently 30% cheaper in India, bringing its price down from ₹2,497 to ₹1,747 through October 7.

These are the deals that make the latest promotion more interesting than a routine catalogue clear-out. Players are not simply choosing between five or ten-year-old games at familiar sale prices; several notable 2026 releases are already being discounted alongside established PlayStation hits.

Spider-Man 2 is now ₹2,499 in India

Players willing to look beyond the newest releases can find considerably deeper discounts.

Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 has been cut in half on the Indian PlayStation Store, falling from ₹4,999 to ₹2,499. Horizon Forbidden West Complete Edition is also down from ₹3,999 to ₹2,839, a 29% reduction.

For someone building a PS5 library rather than chasing new releases, discounts of this size arguably provide better value than the smaller reductions attached to Halo and Black Flag. They also show how dramatically the price gap between older first-party titles and new releases can widen during a major PS Store promotion.

US players can get Forza Horizon 5 for $23.99

The American PlayStation Store has some equally aggressive offers, particularly around games that originally arrived from outside the traditional PlayStation ecosystem.

Forza Horizon 5 Standard Edition is currently $23.99, down 60% from $59.99, while the Premium Edition has fallen from $99.99 to $39.99. No Man’s Sky is also 60% off at $23.99.

Call of Duty players have several options as well. Black Ops 7 is currently $34.99 instead of $69.99, while the PS4 and PS5 versions of the original Black Ops and Black Ops II are listed at $19.99 each, down from $39.99.

Resident Evil Requiem has received a 30% reduction to $48.99 from its usual $69.99 price. Players should check the expiry shown on each individual listing, as not every discounted title follows the same October 7 schedule as the wider promotion.

Don’t simply convert the US prices into rupees

For Indian players, one important point is that PlayStation pricing does not work as a straightforward USD-to-INR conversion.

Sony and individual publishers use regional base prices, and discounts can differ between markets. A game receiving 50% off in the United States may receive a different reduction in India, while some titles can participate in a promotion in one country without appearing in another.

That is why the prices above are presented in the currency of the storefront where the deal has been verified rather than converted using the current exchange rate. For Indian readers, the ₹ price displayed by the Indian PlayStation Store is ultimately the figure that matters at checkout.

The sale arrives just as Sony starts testing Wallet Credits

The discounts are also arriving during an unusually active week for Sony’s digital storefront.

As TalkEsport reported earlier today, some PS5 users have started receiving PlayStation Wallet Credit after purchasing selected games. Reported promotions have offered $10, €10 or £10 in Store credit after an eligible purchase, although Sony has not announced a universal rollout.

The Wallet Credit experiment is separate from the latest sale, and players should not assume that buying a discounted game will automatically earn additional credit. The reward appears only on selected accounts and games carrying an “Includes Wallet Credit” message.

Nevertheless, the combination is noteworthy. Sony is simultaneously experimenting with giving some customers money back into their PlayStation Wallet while running substantial discounts across major new releases and established PS5 games.

Which PlayStation Store deals are actually worth considering?

The answer depends largely on whether a player wants something new or simply wants maximum value.

Halo: Campaign Evolved, Black Flag Resynced and Hades II stand out because their discounts have arrived relatively early. Spider-Man 2 offers a much larger 50% reduction for Indian players, while Forza Horizon 5 at $23.99 is one of the more substantial cuts currently visible on the US storefront.

With hundreds of other games discounted, however, those titles only scratch the surface. The sensible approach is to check a player’s existing wishlist before browsing the entire promotion, particularly because regional prices and expiry dates differ from game to game.

The latest PlayStation Store sale is already live, with many of its headline Indian deals scheduled to remain available until October 7, 2026.
