If you’re still looking for PlayStation deals this Christmas, Sony is kicking off a last-minute sale this Sunday, December 15. The sale will run until December 28 and feature deals on the PS4 holiday bundle and a few PS4 exclusives, including Death Stranding. Sony’s last-minute sale will be available at select retailers in the US. We already know Target is participating, but we expect Best Buy, Walmart, GameStop, and Amazon will also take part in the fun.

Death Stranding | $40 ($60)

Most notably, Death Stranding will be discounted to $40 at participating retailers. We suggest you scoop this deal up as quickly as possible, because it’s bound to sell out. Death Stranding wasn’t on sale Black Friday, but the best Black Friday game deals sold out in a hurry.

Death Stranding isn’t the only PS4 exclusive to receive a last-minute discount. Days Gone and Marvel’s Spider-Man Game of the Year Edition are both discounted from $40 to $20. Best Buy actually already has the official Sony discount beat on Marvel’s Spider-Man, dropping the price all the way to $15.

PS4 Slim holiday bundle | $250 ($300)

Still in the market for a PS4 console? The PS4 Slim holiday bundle is $250. It includes God of War, The Last of Us Remastered, and Horizon Zero Dawn: Complete Edition. This bundle was $200 on Black Friday, so the last-minute deal isn’t nearly as good. Still, this is your best bet if you’re still looking for a PS4 Slim this holiday. Walmart already has it listed for the $250 sale price.

PlayStation Direct sale

Sony will also kick off a holiday special at PlayStation Direct on physical games for PlayStation Plus subscribers. If you buy two select games, you’ll save 30% on your order. If you buy three, you’ll save 50%. Here’s the list of games included in the special:

• Bloodborne — $20
• God of War — $20
• God of War III Remastered — $20
• Gran Turismo Sport — $20
• Horizon Zero Dawn: Complete Edition — $20

PlayStation Plus 12-month subscription | $45 ($60)

Update 12/13: The Wolf Among Us 2 has been announced at The Game Awards for the second time. The sequel to the Fables-based adventure game was originally announced in 2017, but the unfortunate closure of Telltale Games meant that the game never came to be. The story doesn’t end there, though; Telltale Games has been revived, and The Wolf Among Us 2 is back in development, with some of the original developers and voice cast returning, too.

But what happened to Telltale Games, and why is the studio back? Is it even the same studio? Our full explainer below will tell you everything you need to know.

Telltale Games is alive (in some form) again following a buyout by a Malibu, California-based company called LCG Entertainment. But news of Telltale’s revival isn’t as clear-cut as headlines would suggest, especially considering Telltale’s complicated history leading to its closure in 2018.

Of the several announcements made during The Game Awards 2019, a reveal trailer was shown for a licensed game from the Fast And Furious movie franchise. The game is called Fast And Furious: Crossroads and it looks to be a mix of races, car chases, and action. Character models have the likeness of some of its characters such as Dom Toretto (Vin Diesel) and Letty Ortiz (Michelle Rodriguez).

The game will be coming to PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC in May 2020. It’s being developed by Slightly Mad Studios–the team that worked on the Project Cars series and a few Need For Speed games–and published by Bandai Namco. You can check out the trailer below to see Fast And Furious: Crossroads in action.

Earlier this month, it was reported that Slightly Mad Studios was rumored to be working on an “unannounced Hollywood title” and had been since 2017. This would be it.

Microsoft has revealed that Ori and the Will of the Wisps will have a Collector’s edition for the Xbox One version when it launches on February 11. The Will of the Wisps releases for PC the same day, but it won’t have a physical version.

The Collector’s edition includes a game disc, an art book, the Piano Collections soundtrack on CD, a golden feather Steelbook-brand case, and an MP3 download of the original soundtrack. The digital soundtrack’s download must be redeemed by February 11, 2021. Unfortunately, no price has been announced. We’ll keep an eye out for that and when pre-orders go live and update this article with the proper links.

Ori and the Will of the Wisps comes on a physical disc, but Microsoft says you will need up to 30 GB of storage–though this is subject to change. Will of the Wisps will feature 4K Ultra HD support on Xbox One X, in addition to HDR on both the Xbox One S and X.

Ori and the Will of the Wisps is also coming to Xbox Game Pass for console and PC on day one, so if you’re a subscriber, you won’t need to pay anything extra to enjoy the game. It hits both Xbox One and PC on February 11. For more information on Microsoft’s subscription service, check out our Xbox Game Pass guide.

The Game Awards 2019 celebrated the last year in gaming with plenty of major awards handed out, while also giving us a glimpse at the future of games to come.
