PlayStation Store, December 25, 2020 offers
The January Discounts have started on PlayStation Store, a new promotion that will keep us company until January 20, 2021 with many offers on PS5 and PS4 games, also recently released.
Discounts can reach up to 70% and the list of reduced-price titles is really large and interesting, with several products that have never been available at lower figures.
Well, what are the deals that we really think are unmissable? From Assassin's Creed Valhalla to Yakuza: Like a Dragon, from Persona 5 Royal to Immortals: Fenyx Rising, here's our traditional selection.
A mission that is anything but simple, given that the troops of Alfred the Great will try to stop our advance in every way. To counter them we will need friends, which is why the game's protagonist, Eivor, will have to forge alliances within the kingdom and thus secure the support of local governors.
Featuring a literally huge campaign, that will keep you company for hundreds of hours, Assassin's Creed Valhalla boasts some of the best landscapes ever seen in a video game, spurring you to conduct extensive exploration sessions on foot or horseback to discover unknown places, visit cities and find treasures.
On the gameplay front, the game has been equipped with an improved combat system, with the possibility of wielding two different weapons, using special maneuvers, managing a loot that is not too dispersive and hearing better the feedback of the shots between clashes and sieges of fortresses.
When he gets out of prison, however, eighteen years old. later, Ichiban discovers that things have changed a lot, the Omi Alliance has taken control of Kamurocho and his old leader appears to have betrayed the Clan Tojo. Wounded by a gunshot, the man finds himself in Yokohama and there he decides to start a new life with three friends.
As mentioned, Yakuza: Like a Dragon revolutionizes the traditional gameplay of the series: on the one hand the exploration and side activities are still present in a scenario never so large and detailed, the action fights have been set aside in favor of a jRPG-style turn-based system that drastically changes the approach to the experience, gaining tactical depth but losing involvement.
The quality of the plot and characters, as well as the usual cinematic narration of great intensity, however, manage to smooth the edges of the more monotonous and repetitive sequences, making the game an unmissable purchase for those who wanted to get closer to Yakuza, all the more so thanks to the presence of an excellent translation of the texts in Italian.
The best way to join the Phantom Thieves in their nocturnal missions in the souls of evil people, grappling with spectacular clashes in virtual but no less threatening dungeons and castles, as well as with the normal activities of a Japanese high school student.
Actually, the title really deserves it, so you should take advantage of the discounts to take it home. Under the command of the brave Fenyx, we will have the task of finding the origin of a curse that threatens the gods of Olympus, but to complete the mission we will have to make use of divine powers, defeat powerful opponents and solve increasingly complex environmental puzzles. br>

DOOM Eternal (€ 23.09 instead of 69.99) sees the clash between the powerful DOOM Slayer and the demonic troops move to planet Earth.
