Although there are still a few days left until Black Friday, the large video game firms and retailers have already reduced the prices of all the titles that they cover for this 2024 campaign. If you are thinking of taking advantage of the moment to get some new work to kill some time, or You want to advance gifts to give next Christmas, this may be the ideal time. Especially if you want to save a few euros. And here are six interesting varied works for all audiences that we, at ABC, would take into account.
AstroBot
The first great adventure starring the PalyStation robot (and almost the new mascot of the Japanese firm) has been, without a doubt, one of the best things that have come to consoles in 2024. It is a platform work suitable for everyone audiences that never ceases to entertain thanks to its good, rich gameplay and the outstanding design of each of its levels. Not in vain, many already consider him the ‘Super Mario of PlayStation’.
Great for players of all ages – although the youngest ones may find some screens ‘stuck’ – and, especially, for PlayStation lovers. And the video game contains boring winks that refer to the most characteristic titles that have passed through Sony machines in its 30 years of history. One of the best things you can play exclusively on PS5.
Of course, keep in mind that it is not a cheap game. Especially considering that it has only been in stores for a couple of months. In the PlayStation website down 10 euros, from 70 to 60.
‘Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom’
A masterpiece on par with ‘The Breath of the Wild’ in which the user enjoys absolute freedom; of the possibility of being the hero you want to be. Despite being a sequel, and the ideal is to start at the beginning, at ABC we believe that the player can perfectly enjoy this adventure, in which he reincarnates Link, independently. In ‘Tears of the Kingdom’ you have hours and hours of exploration, puzzles, mysteries and epic confrontations.
It is priced at 49 euros until the end of November in the Nintendo Switch online storeconsole of which it is exclusive. It usually costs 70.
‘Senua’s Saga: Hellblade II’
Huge Xbox title that is on its own merits among the best that has come to the current generation Series consoles. During the development of the adventure, the user controls the tormented warrior Senua, who tries to survive and destroy her enemies in Viking lands. It is a proposal in which the narrative and the graphics section take precedence over the gameplay, which is perhaps somewhat limited.
Despite this, it is a work that, we believe, any Xbox user should try. It is currently 32.49 euros in the Microsoft online store; Although it is still better to hire the Game Pass streaming service for a few months to be able to complete, in addition to this title, which is included for free, many others. There it will also be possible to find the first part of the adventure starring the Celtic warrior. In any case, we consider that ‘Hellblade II’ can be played independently without any problem.
‘Death Stranding Director’s Cut’
Hideo Kojima’s latest project – which will receive a continuation this coming 2025 – was raising blisters among the community long before reaching store shelves in 2019. However, after a long time distributing packages – and more than one finished game – in ABC has no doubt that ‘Death Stranding’ is one of the most original and brave titles in video game history.
And not because of its gameplay, its soundtrack or its overwhelming withered world, but because of the hopeful message contained in all those hours wandering around a map – that of an apocalyptic United States – as beautiful as it is dead. The work sends a message that speaks of unity in the face of adversity. Persistence versus difficulty. It makes it clear that human beings, when they want, are capable of doing wonderful things.
It is probably not a video game for everyone, but it still offers an incredible experience, capable of upsetting whoever holds the controller, so it doesn’t hurt to give it a chance. It doesn’t matter if it’s on PS5, Xbox Series (where it recently arrived) or on a computer. It is currently available for 19.99 euros in online stores, and also in its physical version.
‘Resident Evil 4 Remake’
‘Resident Evil 4’ is considered one of the best games in the saga and also one of the great horror video games in history. In 2023 Capcom relaunched the original title, adapting it to current times, with new graphics and some non-obtrusive changes. The adventure takes place in Spain, apparently in the northern area, where the user faces hordes and hordes of zombies and anthropomorphic beasts trying to rescue the daughter of the president of the United States.
Currently it can be purchased for PS5, Xbox Series or computer for 19.99 euros.
‘Super Mario Odyssey’
One of the best video games that has starred the most famous plumber in the history of video games. It is a lighthearted three-dimensional work in which Mario, once again, has to rescue Princess Peach from the evil Bowser. In this case, his best ally will be his cap, with which the character is capable of capturing enemies and even using it as a platform to jump.
Obviously, ‘Super Mario Odyssey’ is exclusive to Nintendo Switch. Can currently be purchased in the hybrid online store for 39.99 euros.
