Also out this week on PS4 is the fourth entry in the Sniper Elite series. This time the action plays out in Italy – grab your rifle and do battle with the Nazis in a bid to liberate Europe from the yoke of fascism.

And that’s not all – see the list below for a full rundown of all this week’s new releases.

    Who in there right mind pays these ridiculous prices for new digital release. £55 for For Honour, £50 for Sniper Elite 4 with absolutely zero resale value.. Both can be bought on disk for around £40.

      Completely agree, Sony is throwing away money and losing to mobile because you know all these 60 Million PS4 owners now buy LESS games than the 10 million ps4 owners at launch because people arent paying that to try out a game with no refunds available in PSN… Prices should be around 20 bucks for new games and sony and publishers could make 10 times the money they make now easily.

      While I agree prices are high, sometimes the extra is worth it to an individual in certain cases. For instance, I purchased Overwatch digital rather than disc, even though I could have saved £5 or so because:

      1. I have no interest in resale value – I have never traded a game in I have bought.
      2. Buying the digital allows me to have it playable on both my Playstations at once… a disc doesn’t. That’s going to cost me £80 at your prices on disc.

      But, as you can see, these are relevant to my circumstances. Physical or digital is a choice I make depending on the game I am buying. I weigh up the pros and cons and make the right choice for me.

      In the UK For Honor is only £42 in Tesco plus I dont have to do a huge download plus I can trade it in after, so its a win win win for me, I wonder how many people wished they could trade in their digital versions of No Mans Sky lol

      Try living in NZ, where most new game prices are equivalent to £70 or more! The prices for new games on the Playstation store are generally slightly cheaper at around £60-£65 equivalent, but if you want a deluxe edition or a season pass bundle, expect to pay around £90!

      Even older PS3 games on the PSN are about 2x the price of those in the UK, we often get lesser discounts in sales too. Sometime we don’t even have the games available anymore due to licensing, or the prices get left at a stupidly high level because our store gets forgotten. Example: Max Payne 3 is £40 on the NZ Store, a game that costs about £5 preowned

      Or wait two or three weeks and it’ll have been less than £30 at at least one retailer

      The publisher sets the prices for games. Sony did not publish those titles, they only take a small percentage of it.

      Publishers usually stick with the RRP for games to keep the retail stores happy. Now, this is the most important part of my comment..

      If you don’t like the price, don’t buy it.

      I buy digital only. The first thing that has failed in every Sony console released is the disc drive, there were lawsuits and cover-ups etc. I had quite a bit of bad luck with my PS4 disc drive. I was given a refurb unit by Sony…. with a bad disc drive. Third time lucky.

      Really though on PC I’ll pay £39 for those games, but give it two weeks and they’ll be £28.

    Not everyone lives where games are that cheap. Or can buy online without paying extra for shipping or customs.
    On release, most PS4 games here are about £55 at cheapest online/retailer so the difference isn’t very big.
    And the second hand market isn’t very big so its’s hard to make good deals (both selling and buying).
    In the bigger cities it might be different though.

    And I only buy digital anyway so I don’t have to swap discs (although only buy when on discount so have never paid full price yet).

    Over here where I live in Ireland only 2 places sell games and they are 70-80 euro for new releases and still rising which is why I don’t bother buying discs anymore as it is the same price. Last time I checked these stores when a new game came out it was Resident Evil and it cost 75 euro which is a steep price to pay but I do know that it would be a good purchase if I wanted the game as it would entertain me for at least 15-20 hours while searching all areas.

    Now the likes of Fifa and COD should be at least 50 as Fifa is basically the same each year with little new features and everyone knows COD is basically the same each year aswell so paying 70-80 euro on these games are a joke.

    If only it would go back to the time when games were 50 new I would be buying more games but 70-80 euro is a lot of money for a game like Fifa and COD when you know that in a years time it will be useless to you.

    And as for the resale value, I went into the shop with Steep a week after it was released and wanted to trade it in and was only gonna get 20 euro which is a joke so there is no point in trying to trade-in in some countries as it isn’t worth it.

    Basically not everyone has the good fortune of being able to buy a new game for 35-40 pound which would equal 50-55 euro which is why I buy less new release games on disc and wait for a sale to buy digital. Can’t wait for the day that games will cost 100 euro which will happen sooner rather than later.

      Keep an eye an Argus. RE VII was only 55 quid in there on 4th February when a friend picked it up. Smyths also isn’t too bad. 65 is normally the most expensive the get for new releases.

      A great tip is to go to Smythstoys website and reorder the games “least expensive” first. You would be suprisied the things that are on sale there brand new and sealed. Got Project Cars GOTY Edition for €20 before Xmas. As big a controversy as No Man’s Sky was, you can pick it up in Smyths right now, new, for €16, the price it should have been at launch lol.

      Their online prices match their instore prices too.

      sharpy63 you are obviously wasting your money in game stop ….Dont , its a disgusting rip off . I haven’t spent a penny in over 6 years in there .

      Every game is way cheaper in Argos , tesco and smyths … Sometimes as much as 20-30 euro cheaper in Argos . Smyths give you way more money in trade ins as well .

      Never shop in game rip off stop

      I’m in Nenagh, Co. Tipperary and Tesco is the only big supermarket in my town now with games. The other shop is run by a couple of local fellas that used to work in Xtra Vision before it closed down. Limerick would be the closest location for a Smyths or an Argos to me.

      Gamestop left Nenagh years ago and I was buying my games from Xtra Vision but they closed last year aswell so have been getting games on sale from the PS Store.

      And for a few months Tesco in town got rid of all the games that were there and not even sure if they were just cleaning the place up or getting rid of them altogether but they didn’t have a great selection last time I looked last month and they were the same price as the other local game shop.

      Thanks for the link to Smyths I’ll have to look at the prices for games I missed out on over the last few months. Might even pick up No Mans Sky at 16 euro haha

    Not that it’s coming out this week, but I’m curious whatever the Night in The Woods pre-order here will have the Dynamic Theme included as a bonus, or if that’s just an exclusive thing for the US Store?

  • andrewsqual

    WOW. Wasn’t that For Honor’s Beta only out a week ago? Had no idea that was releasing this week.
    SWEET, another Ubi title out of the way so we can forget all about it from next week on, the same way everyone did with The Divisive……… yeah I think that’s what it was called.

    Resident Evil banned footage 2 is out today which is great but if you bought the season pass the description says you get footage 1 and 2 plus you get the “Additional Story Episode”. But when’s this Episode coming out, I just presumed since 1 and 2 where now out it would have been released as well.
    Any news would be appreciated thanks.

    Valkyr Prime Accessories Pack…this got released in november….Banshee Prime leak?

    • PsVitaCyrus
      February 14, 2017 at 8:50 pm PST

      This is due to the Valkyr Prime Accessories Pack vanishing from EU Stores a while back. Guess Digital Extremes finally got through to Sony, although I do wonder why they post it here in a way as if it were to be released for the first time.

    Ubisoft have lost the plot! It story driven, Are you calling honor a moba? Are you going to state it in ps store this time! online only again?. Sony why aren’t you making games developers state the genre specifically! This is unacceptable Sony. Most of these moba platform are free with reasonable adding prices, and you no what you’re buying, this is not the case with ubisoft!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!????

    • GTIGAMER
      February 15, 2017 at 12:27 pm PST

      Ubisoft haven’t stated it’s a online only game again! Unbelievable! Sony please sort this problem, with lack of information from ubisoft. This Is the third game now, crew, steep, honer. I stumbled across this information but not in time!. Its not difficult to state it’s a moba in in game details in playstation store.
