You know, the PlayStation Store, with its ongoing Next Level Savings thing, has this spotlight going on for indie games. And wow, some of these games have crazy discounts right now. I mean, we’re talking up to 75% off for PS4 and PS5 stuff. It’s wild. And there’s this horror game in the mix—some folks say it’s downright terrifying.
### Wait, Speaking of Horror – Outlast is a Steal at $5
So, here’s the deal. Outlast, yeah? It’s just $4.99 on the PS Store. That’s like, a 75% cut from the original $19.99. But, you gotta be quick. This deal wraps up on May 29 at 2:59 a.m. ET. Why 2:59? Beats me.
The game’s blurb paints a spooky picture: “Hidden away in the Colorado mountains, Mount Massive Asylum is where all the creepy stuff’s happening.” It’s been deserted for ages—then Murkoff Corp shows up with their mysterious projects. Anyway, some journalist, Miles something, sneaks in after a tip-off. What he finds? It’s where science, religion, and who-knows-what clash. Escaping means delving into the asylum’s dark secrets.
And if you vibe with Outlast, there’s this DLC, Whistleblower. It fills you in on what happened before Outlast, plus it rounds off the horror tale. Not discounted, but it’s $8.99. Throw in the main game and this DLC, and bam—$13.98 for both.
Back when Outlast first dropped in 2013, critics were pretty impressed. This site, Metacritic, has it pegged with an average score of 80 from 59 reviews. Not too shabby, right?
