PlayStation’s latest console exclusive, Helldivers 2, is now available at its lowest price ever on Amazon. As part of the Secret Level sale, Prime members can grab the physical edition for PS5 for just $25, down from $40. Additionally, Prime members can save on the PC version with Steam keys for Helldivers 2 discounted to $32, and the Super Citizen Edition available for $48, down from $60.
If you’re not a Prime member, fear not. Helldivers 2 is also on sale for $30 at multiple other retailers as part of PlayStation’s holiday promotion, including Best Buy and Target. However, if you order from Amazon, the estimated delivery date for the PS5 edition is a couple of days after Christmas at the earliest, so keep that in mind if you’re purchasing it as a gift.
Even with a slightly higher price tag, it’s worth considering signing up for a one-month Amazon Prime membership. In celebration of Prime Video’s new series about video games, Amazon is offering an abundance of free games through Prime Gaming, totaling 72 free games that you get to keep, even if you cancel your membership. New subscribers can enjoy a 30-day free trial, while others can subscribe for one month at $15, essentially getting a bundle of 72 games for $15.
Helldivers 2, developed by Arrowhead Game Studios, is the highly anticipated sequel to the 2015 top-down shooter. This cooperative shooter has transitioned from the top-down perspective to an over-the-shoulder view, offering enhanced third-person gunplay. With a 9/10 rating in our review, the game’s diverse mission objectives, progression system, and enjoyable co-op experience have made it a favorite among players.
Upon its launch in February for PS5 and PC, Helldivers 2 became the fastest-selling game published by PlayStation, outselling other popular PlayStation titles. Although it initially launched at $40, the game quickly rose to the top, becoming the best-selling game of 2024 in the first half of the year, with EA Sports College Football 25 now taking the lead after a 50% discount on Amazon.
For those interested in more PlayStation Studios games, the holiday promotion offers discounts on various titles for PS5 and PC. PC gamers, in particular, can take advantage of Prime-exclusive deals on PlayStation Studios Steam games, such as Sackboy: A Big Adventure for $12.59 (down from $60), God of War for $20 (previously $50), and Ghost of Tsushima: Director’s Cut for $48 (originally $60). Additionally, Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart Steam codes are available for $27, no Prime membership required.
