Look, we have our fair share of issues with The Order: 1886, but for $3.99 it’s worth buying. Sony’s launched a new batch of discounts on the North American PlayStation Store, and Ready at Dawn’s story-driven Victorian shooter has brought its exquisitely groomed handlebar moustache along for the party.
The game is short and has some shoddy stealth sections, but for the price of a frothy coffee it’s worth a shout. Other highlights in the new sale – which spans Sony Santa Monica and Ubisoft games, among a handful of others – include the likeable PlayStation Move adventure Sorcery for $1.49 and God of War III Remastered for $5.99.
We’re just going to dump the full list of savings compiled by NeoGAF in the space below, but do let us know if anything takes your fancy in the comments section.

Yeeeesh. I'll buy it for you all at that price. Really quite enjoyed it.
Loved it even at full price, buy it people.
Why do I have a feeling that The Order might be a PS+ game here soon.
At that price it makes you wonder why people would want to wait for such on Plus. Might as well own those games outright.
I really enjoyed my time with The Order, getting the Platinum trophy was nice and easy too.While I acknowledge it had its problems, for me it got a lot right; I loved the characters, story and universe.
Order 18 at 86p
I actually enjoyed The Order: 1886 even though it was QTE heavy. Loved the characters and the setting. The fact that the game looks great doesn't hurt either.
Already bought it at $10 a long time ago, worth it.
@WanderingBullet @Lovespuds Yeah, the story, setting and shooting is good, it just the pacing and total playtime that's hurting the game. It will be really cool if ready at dawn make the sequel that's fix the first game problem.
Best mustache this generation.
Asmuch as I still don't like The Order 1886, I have to admit that i kinda like the characters, story and the setting, and while the gameplay isn't perfect, atleast it isn't as bad as Umbrella Corps or Alekhine's Gun. Still, what really kills the game for me was the lenght, the boring stealth sections, lack of interesting extras (Uncharted 4 nails this) and the QTEs. Though I am still intrigued if Sony will ever make a sequel. I mean, Knack is getting one, so why not The Order 1886?
The Order is worth much more than $3.99 imo. I paid £25/$35 for it and don't regret it at all.
In fact I highly enjoyed it!
@SoulsBourne128 I liked the length of The Order. Made a nice refreshing change from all the 50+ hour open world games around these days.
Would choose quality over quantity any day. (Yes I did think it was quality!)
The Order for $4 is totally worth it. I know it got some bad press and it's totally warranted but at that price it's an amazing game.
Bought 1886 for $4.99 about 2 or 3 months ago, haven't gotten around to playing it yet. I can't care about the $1 b/c Sony would charge my CC $5.00 anyway for the $3.99 purchase. In fact I still have 0.01 in my account from that $4.99 purchase. No wait, I bought it w/ Knack for $5, have played that, 1 cent must be from something else.
There are way too many GoW games on that list, can't they make 1 GoW bundle w/ every game?
Why is War of the Monsters on twice w/ 2 prices?
War of the Monsters - $3.49 - 65% Off - Ends 5/16
War of the Monsters - $1.99 - 80% Off - Ends 5/16
I would buy Sorcery for $1.49 if I didn't have to charge $5.00 to my CC for it. Would have been a perfect companion game w/ 1886.
I'm happy to see all the positive comments on here. I for one thoroughly enjoyed the game
Wish it was that cheap for us!
God of War 3 remastered cheap aswell planning on buying that soon, shame it's not that cheap in UK...
I already own most of these for the PS4. The only ones I'm missing are the games in the Classic PS4 Bundle, Here They Lie and Fat Princess Adventures...which I would buy if it were anything like the original.
@rjejr
This is like Knack. Not even the low price entices me since I have to download like 35GB for Knack and 50GB for this one. Plus, you know, having many way better games to play. Horizon and Persona 5 this year alone.
I picked up a physical copy of The Order for $20 the summer after it came out. I thought it was well worth it at that price. $3.99 is a steal, the easy Plat is a nice bonus, too.
I paid full whack for this and still enjoyed it. Still one of the best looking PS4 games.
@ApostateMage
Ditto. Now Ready at Dawn needs to make a sequel.
Been waiting for something like this, but not going to get back to my ps4 before the sale ends. Hopefully will be on UK ps plus or similar deal again.
Wow $3.99 a steal I should give it another go around! I own GOW3 damn good price for that game!
@SoulsBourne128 Largely because Knack sold a lot more then The Order and probably at a much smaller budget.
The Order 1886 is quality? lol maybe Kwik Save quality. Have Sony even bothered to release a proper Pro Patch for this game, disgraceful if not. The barrel shooting level was probably the greatest action sequence of this generation, ahh, no, no it wasn't, not any of it.
I LOVED The Order, seriously. Yes, maybe it's more a "cinematic experience" than an actual GAME, but I don't care. I like movies too. I like TV Shows. And that what it felt like : I was watching the first season of a damn good show. Setting was great, characters too, the storytelling was great - classical, but still -
No really, I love this game. I would sign anytime for a sequel.
@sinalefa "having many way better games to play."
I spend way too much of my time playing bad games, not enough playing good games. Part of that is I think more games are bad than good, really I hardly like anything, part of that is just me being a cheapskate and playing what I can get on sale. Part of that is me not wanting to undertake games like Skyrim or The Witcher 3 which I really think I will like but am afraid to start and never finish.
@Tasuki people have been saying that same thing about Killzone/Knack/Infamous for over 3 years now.
@Bad-MuthaAdebisi Sony would need RAD to do the Pro patch and they obviously have other priorities, same as FromSoftware with Bloodborne. Besides I don't think a patch would do much for the game's presentation anyway.
@rjejr
There are more bad than good games, but there is no shortage of good games, specially this year.
PlatinumGames is an example of a developer of good games (bar the Activision ones) that are cheap or can be found at sales regularly.
And the third one is a "sacrifice" you have to make. It is better to have played part of a good game than nothing at all but if the game is good and clicks with you, you will be playing it till completion.
Just started the Order. Not a bad little game. For 4 bucks it's a steal! Worth checking out. And Great sales this week!!
@viciousarcanum The problem with Knack, Killzone and InFamous is that from the beginning they felt like fully fledged games at $60, The Order however didn't.
@wiiware I actually wouldn't mind it if they made a sequel.
Got mine a few months ago at 15 euros. Any idea when new EU sales are out?
Well worth it. If you haven't played it, I recommend giving it a shot. The atmosphere and characters are excellent.
@adf86 that's just lazy though, any company that believes in their product should be making the minimum effort to throw out a patch.
That's quite mad how cheap it is. There are DLC bundles in that sale that are three times the price!
I bypassed it first time around so I'm in!
I got The Order: 1886 second-hand. Earned the platinum trophy in a day or two then sold it for almost the same price.
It's not a bad game at all but there isn't much replay value there to force me buy it even with this very cheap price.
Is AC4 worth it at 12 bucks? I've never played a game in the series before.
Sure I've had my eyes on 1886 and this is a great price, but I would rather pay another $4 for Metal Gear! I'm Jealous of Europe again!
Good deal, I got it bundled at launch with my PS4 (and TLOU which is what I bought it for). I'd love a sequel, I actually played it through twice - first when I got it and then again for the Platinum. THe game isnt perfect but I loved the world and story, would love a sequel that will never ever come.
Will we be getting these in the UK anytime soon?
Bought it last night. For this price, it's definitely worth it. =)
@sinalefa "PlatinumGames is an example of a developer of good games (bar the Activision ones) that are cheap or can be found at sales regularly."
I guessing Activisioon was involved w/ Korra and some other licensed games/ Read back things about some of them.
Speaking of bad games. Got to the final boss in YL last night. Beat his first 2 fights but got annoyed after multiple attempts at the 3rd. I won't play it again. Worth the $8.46, but just barely.
@rjejr
Activision ones are the trio Korra/Transformers/TMNT. Funny that I tell you to invest your time in good games and I can "brag" about getting Korra's platinum, with how maligned the game was.
Thanks for the YL impressions. I would never pay $40 for it, specially with Mario Odyssey releasing this year. For $20 or less it sounds way more reasonable. Snake Pass had a similar vibe and I enjoyed it, even if more tutorials would have been appreciated. Getting the snake to do what you want was the hardest thing of all.
@JoeBlogs - spot on.
I bought this at full price hoping it would kickstart a new generation of games that better forged gameplay with cinema, a title to show off to friends as-yet unacquainted with the PS4 repertoire.
Damn, was I wrong. As much as I wanted to like it, it betrays certain gaming fundamentals at the expense of cutscenes and QTE's which genuinely harrowed the experience.
You're right also in that gaming time is often precious and even at £3.99 I still wouldn't recommend it, in fact I'd say nab The Phantom Pain for £7.99 and never look back 😏
@sinalefa Dont' disregard YL just b/c of me, I'm finciky.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uCja1WGZx-E
But yeah, I suspect it will be $20 soon enough. They got paid $2.1m from the kickstarter, and what 6 guys worked on the game, that's $350,000 each for 18 months worth of work.
I played the first story in Giana Sisters: Twisted Dreams tonight, this month in Xbox Live gold, and I liked that better, even though I prefer 3D over 2D it at least seemed finished.
