You know when you’re just idly browsing the PS Store, looking for some digital treasures, and bam! — Spring Sale hits you like unexpected sunshine on a winter’s day. Seriously, if you’re into PS4 or PS5 games, there’s just a ton of stuff on there. I mean, maybe it’s overwhelming? But, like, overwhelming in a “I can’t believe I’m getting this for so cheap” way. Case in point – there’s this RPG, Fairy Tail, which is based on some mega-popular manga and anime. It’s just waiting to suck you in for what, 67% less cash? Wild, right?
Oh, and speaking of Fairy Tail, you gotta check this out — the Digital Deluxe Edition (fancy, I know) is now going for, like, 24 bucks and some change instead of the usual 75 smackers. That’s like finding an unopened roll of cash in your old coat pocket. But here’s the catch (there’s always a catch, isn’t there?), this offer is like Cinderella’s ball — come April 24 at 2:59 a.m. ET, poof, it’s back to regular pricing.
So, what’s in this Deluxe thing? Let’s see… the main game (duh), plus a bunch of snazzy costumes for Natsu, Lucy, Gray, Erza, and Wendy. Super chic. Oh, and don’t forget the Limited Edition Growth Lacrima x 5 and some exclusive Lucy costume. What the heck is a lacrima? Sounds cool, though.
Now, if you’re feeling a bit commitment-phobic about all these deluxe packages — totally get it, sometimes less is more — the Standard Edition is also 67% off. It’ll set you back just under 20 bucks. That also has the April 24 expiration date looming, so no dawdling if you’re interested.
And what’s the game about? Get this — demons, dark wizards, dragons, and, wait for it, cats. Yup, cats. You’re basically diving headfirst into the land of Fiore with the crew from the FAIRY TAIL mage guild — Natsu Dragneel, Lucy Heartfilia, and their merry band of wizardly weirdos. GUST Studios is behind this game, and they’ve got Hiro Mashima, the dude who penned the original story, watching over. So, if authenticity’s your jam, this might be your thing.
When it first launched back in 2020, reviewers were kind of mixed about it. Some loved it, some didn’t, which is, you know, par for the course with any game really. According to Metacritic, it sits at a 71 average from 41 critic reviews. Not the highest score ever, but it doesn’t suck either. Take a peek, feel it out, maybe give it a whirl if it calls to you. Like, why not, right?
