There’s always something exciting happening on the PlayStation Store, and today is no exception. Gamers are in for a treat with the ongoing Dealmania promotion, where you can score discounts of up to 75% on hundreds of items. Among these enticing deals, there’s a standout offer on one of the most cherished JRPGs ever created and an all-time favorite from the PS Vita era.
Now, for those passionate about JRPGs, here’s some fantastic news: Persona 4 Golden, developed by Atlus, is currently available at a 50% discount, priced at just $9.99 on the PlayStation Store. Typically sold for $19.99, this deal is too good to miss. But a word to the wise—act quickly! This offer wraps up in six days on March 13.
Here’s a little teaser from the game’s description to pique your interest: “They say your soulmate will appear if you stare into a television set on a rainy night… As this peculiar tale takes root in the quaint town of Inaba, where our protagonist has just moved, strange murders begin to unfold. The protagonist, alongside his team, dives deeper into the mystery, and they end up uncovering a portal to another realm.”
Persona 4 Golden originally graced the PS Vita back in 2012, and it quickly became a fan favorite. Critics, too, were enamored, as evidenced by its impressive Metacritic score of 93, based on 61 reviews. It’s right up there with the original Persona 5, marking it as the second highest-rated title in the series. Still, topping that chart is Persona 5 Royal, which came out in 2020 with refreshingly new content and enhanced features.
This well-loved classic didn’t just stay confined to one game. Persona 4 has seen a wealth of spin-offs since its initial 2008 release on the PS2. Fans can indulge in games like the fighting-themed Persona 4 Arena and its sequel, Persona 4 Arena Ultimax, as well as the rhythm-centric Persona 4: Dancing All Night. There’s even a manga and anime adaptation, proving just how impactful this series has been over the years.
