Another day, another PlayStation Store deal for gamers to sink their teeth into. Currently, Sony’s video game digital storefront is running its Dealmania promotion which sees literally hundreds of items discounted up to 75%. This includes a PS4 port of the PS Vita’s best game, and one of the most beloved JRPGs of all time.
Persona 4 Golden is 50% off on the PS Store
Atlus’ Persona 4 Golden is currently $9.99 on the PS Store. That is a 50% discount from its typical $19.99 price tag. Interested PS4 and PS5 gamers will want to hurry though as this offer ends in six days, on March 13.
“They say your soulmate will appear if you stare into a television set on a rainy night…,” reads the game’s description on the PS Store. “This strange rumor slowly spreads through the rural town of Inaba, the protagonist’s new home, just as a chain of mysterious murders begin. As the protagonist and his teammates chase after the truth, they find themselves opening the door to another world.”
Persona 4 Golden was originally launched for Sony’s gone but not forgotten handheld, the PS Vita, back in 2012 and was received incredibly well upon release. According to review aggregate site Metacritic, it received an average score of 93 across 61 critic reviews. It is tied with the base version of Persona 5 as the second highest-rated game in the series. The highest-rated is 2020’s Persona 5 Royal, a rerelease of the fifth entry that added some new content, features, and quality-of-life improvements.
Persona 4 received a plethora of spin-offs after its original 2008 release for the PS2. This includes the fighting game Persona 4 Arena, its sequel Person 4 Arena Ultimax, and rhythm game Persona 4: Dancing All Night. It was also given a manga and anime adaptation.
