The PlayStation Store is doing this cool thing right now. They’re spotlighting indie games with these massive discounts. Like, up to 75% off on PS4 and PS5 indie gems. One game that’s catching some eerie attention is, wait for it…a horror game that might just freak you out.
### Outlast is a Steal at 5 Bucks on the PS Store
Okay, so here’s the deal with Outlast. It’s going for an unbelievable $4.99 on the PS Store at the moment. Seriously, that’s 75% off from its usual $19.99 price. If you’re thinking of getting it, don’t wait too long. The clock’s ticking, with the sale wrapping up on May 29 at some odd hour, like 2:59 a.m. Eastern.
Now the game gets under your skin in Colorado—spooky mountains, Mount Massive Asylum, the whole deal. Yeah, it’s one of those creepy ‘abandoned’ places but reopened by this mysterious Murkoff Corporation. Sounds fishy, right? The kind of place you definitely wouldn’t see me visiting alone.
So, this journalist guy, Miles Upshur, sneaks in, led by some shady tip. What he finds? It’s like science and religion had this creepy baby. A mix of, I don’t even know—a nightmare cocktail. Inside, he’s got one goal: uncover the truth and get the heck out.
If Outlast ends up being your jams, you can also dive into its DLC, Whistleblower. It’s like a prequel and a finale rolled into one. Weirdly poetic, I know. They’re asking $8.99 for it, not part of the sale, though. So if you’re feeling brave, you can grab both for $13.98.
Back when it launched in 2013, critics didn’t hate it. Actually, kind of loved it. If you care about scores and all that jazz, Metacritic gave it 80 from 59 reviews. Which is quite something.
Anyway, grabbing these games at these prices might just make facing nightmares a little more appealing. Or not. Up to you!
