Here we go, then, it’s time for the annual January sale on the European PlayStation Store – also known as the ‘Sony Wants Your Christmas Cash Bad’ promotion. This year there are over 1,000 items on offer across the PlayStation 4, PSVR, PS3, and PS Vita. And no, that’s not a typo – we’re literally talking about a sale with discounts on over 1,000 things. The offers will run until 19th January, so plenty of time to make up your mind.
So what are some of the highlights? Well, as with the latest North American sale, there’s too much to list out here. Star Wars: Battlefront 2 and FIFA 18 are both down to £29.99, while The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt can be yours for as little as £11.99. There’s an absolute ton of DLC on sale, from Fallout 4’s Season Pass through to Injustice 2 add-on content.
And yeah, as we mentioned earlier, this isn’t limited to the PS4. Over on the PS Vita you’ll find a ton of titles on sale, too, including Toukiden 2 and the various Danganronpa games. And then on PSVR, some highlights include The Lost Bear for £3.99 and Resident Evil 7: Biohazard for £14.99. Look, just take a look for yourself, but do check back and let us know what you bought.

This is ridiculous.
Gosh darn it.. why!!!!! Ok, so Super Hot VR for like £8 is a must. Been on my list for ages.
Other than that, I think I will wait and see what Santa brings me. Then, trade that in and buy other games.
That took a while to look through! I might get Ys Origins.
Aargh! Just bought re7 yesterday for £18. Typical.
@Rudy_Manchego Superhot VR is amazing. Highly recommended.
Good grief. This is an incredible sale. Definitely picking up the original Ni No Kuni at long last - first time it's been on sale in a long time and I'm not going to miss it again! Edith Finch also going in the shopping basket.
Ones to watch out for that I believe are being discounted for the first time on the EU PSN -
Pyre
Undertale
Full Throttle Remastered
The latter two games are cross buy for both Vita and PS4.
If you haven't got Bloodborne yet, then now's a good time!
@Futureshark it's always a good time to buy Bloodborne.
Grim fandango I saw for a quid or not much more
Me gusta! Will get some stuff for sure
Got Thumper (VR - really liked the demo). Thinking about Superhot VR
Will pick up The Lost Bear and maybe a few others over the next few weeks. Really wanted a nice discount on Rex Infinite.
Amazing sale as always. I picked up undertale, ys origin and tokyo xanadu for vita, and am tempted by grand kingdom for 12 quid. I am also tempted by monsters of the deep on vr; but really need to study the ps4 deals in more detail.
@Rudy_Manchego you wont be disappointed. That and Batman VR are my favourite vr experiences so far. Nothing sold me on the vr concept in the way that superhot did.
@get2sammyb Sammy; if i were to buy just one, should i get Everest vr or Chernobyl vr. I seem to recall you have tried both? Thanks
Well I guess it is time to complete the jrpg Vita digital collection.
@Rob_230 @get2sammyb @belmont Will NA be getting a comparable sale today?
I'll get Tokyo Xanadu if that gets a heavy discount here in NA.
@ReanSchwarzer7 US sale is already live I believe.
@Rob_230 I actually haven't tried Everest (I want to, though) but I thought Chernobyl was really cool. Obviously not a game, but quite eerie just exploring the spaces.
Disappointed the price for RE7 where I am is Ireland is €25. I have the game on disc anyhow but £15 is not equivalent to €25. Looking at the sales most of the games are cheaper in Argos.
I'm tempted by Tides Of Numenera.
NEVER MIND...no discount on Everybody's Golf...SHAME
After the store prevented me from adding an 11th item to my cart, I realized I'm overdoing it and I should reconsider my life choices.
@Rob_230 Cool, Batman VR was one of my fave experiences so this is high praise!
@get2sammyb Would you say the Move controllers are essential to fully enjoy Superhot VR?
Edit: Nevermind, it seems they're mandatory.
Dear Steam this is how you do a sale, anyway might look into some back log games dlc on PS3 as I have a back log if games I still play. And see what's what for PS4 later in tonight
I don't think it's that great a sale tbh most of the stuff has been in sales before for better prices
@get2sammyb Yeah our holiday sale has under 175 games across the three platforms and nearly 600 dlc items...
No Tokyo Xanadu for Vita either which would have been an insta-purchase...
So I picked up:
Mega Man Legacy Collection 2 (PS4)
Undertale (PSVita, cross-buy)
SteinsGate 0 (PSVita)
Monster of the Deep FFXV (PSVR)
Superhot VR (PSVR)
Backlog: 1, Me: 0
@ReanSchwarzer7 Is 175 games not enough?
@get2sammyb thanks Sammy. Yeah, i think VR could be brilliant for these types of experiences. Having struggled with doom, it seems that the more 'usual' gaming experience can be hard to stomach in vr (literally). So the more curated games or experiences seem almost preferable - at least atm. Very tempted by this
I've been waiting for WRC7 to come down in price, and at £19.99 in this sale I've finally pulled the trigger. May pick up Sniper Elite 4 as well.
With 1000+ items and a runtime to mid January I'll wait for the January psplus announcement. Chances are too high that one of these titles are going to be for free, though I doubt any of my picks will be among them.
Got my eyes on the superhot bundle, observer, Edith Finch and Yakuza 5 that my PS3 gets some love too.
Raiden v looks like it’s hit the price I’m happy to go with. I love the modern Dariusburst, so hoping raiden v will give me some 90’s flashbacks that doesn’t involve 90’s drugs
@Jake3103 Absolutely essential, yes.
This is beyond reason : I just can't decide what to do with my wallet ! The Psvr seems to be blessed in this offer : superhot VR is 10 bucks only (instant buy !), Arizone Sunshine only 20 (heard the game is very good now, after multiples patchs and AIM support), the solus project is also 10...
What the... Wow.
Picked up persona 4 dancing all night for vita, have my eyes on undertale, edith finch, full throttle and super hot VR
@naruball never! Buy buy and buy and then don't play the games
@Bad-MuthaAdebisi Undertale is one of the best games I've ever played. You know what a cynical sod I can be, and it completely charmed me.
I picked up Mega Man legacy collection 2 and Metal Slug anthology. Not much else there that I fancy which I don't already have to be honest!
I can't see Vita sales on my Vita nor on psn app. Any one can help with that?
