2017 GOTY Contender Available at 60% Off for One More Week on PS Store

Whoa, okay, so here’s the deal: As one promo wave crashes out of the PlayStation Store, another rolls right on in. Seriously, it’s like they planned this. Anyway, the Big Games Big Deals promo—catchy name, huh?—is now live. We’re talking slices of up to 70% off on some of the top PS4 and PS5 games. And guess what? Among these gems is this 2017 Game of the Year nominee that shook things up back in the day.

## So, NieR: Automata is Going for 60% Off?

Yep, you heard that right. NieR: Automata Game of the YoRHa Edition—I know, long name—is slashed down to $15.99 from $39.99. Not too shabby, eh? If you’re into snatching this up, you might wanna hurry. It’s ticking away, with the curtain falling on May 8 at some odd hour in the morning—like 2:59 a.m. ET. Why so early? No clue.

The game blurb goes something like this: “Invaders from another world show up unannounced—like surprise!—unleashing these machine lifeforms.” Catchy, right? It’s like an invitation to a wild android bash, featuring the YoRHa squad. Heard it’s got this unique action RPG vibe—and who doesn’t like a good twist?

Also, this Game of the YoRHa Edition comes loaded with DLCs—really, a whole bunch of stuff:

– 3C3C1D119440927 DLC (yeah, that makes no sense)
– All these Pod Skins: Play System, Cardboard, Retro Grey, Retro Red
– Grimoire Weiss Pod—whatever that is
– amazarashi Head Pod Skin and a Machine Mask Accessory
– PS4 Dynamic Theme and a Set of PS4 Avatars

Never thought Pod Skins would be a thing, but here we are. Oh, and if you’re hesitant about diving headfirst into NieR: Automata, they’ve got a free demo lurking around the PS Store. Always nice to try before you buy, right?

When NieR: Automata dropped in 2017, it wasn’t just greeted; it was celebrated—like confetti and everything. Metacritic says it averaged an 88 score from, like, 101 critic reviews. It scooped up awards left and right: Best Score/Music at The Game Awards 2017—music is a big deal, folks—and it nabbed Role-Playing Game of the Year at the D.I.C.E. Awards. Even got the Award for Excellence at the Japan Game Awards. Busy year for the game, huh?

And, wow, that’s about it. So go on, check out the deals if you want. Or just ponder about how they come up with these weird discount end times. Whatever floats your boat.
