If you recall, Sony kicked off their Golden Week sale event earlier this week. If you’re unfamiliar with Golden Week, this is a week-long holiday celebration in Japan. It typically takes place at the end of April and into the start of May. So while it’s a week for citizens in Japan to take advantage of from work or school, it’s also getting some smaller celebrations worldwide. For gamers, this means different Golden Week-inspired sale events from digital marketplaces.
So, Sony has their Golden Week sale going on right now for PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 users. But today, we know that Microsoft has finally kicked off its own Golden Week sale event for Xbox One and Xbox Series X/S platforms. If you’re looking to expand your digital collection, then this might be a sale event to take advantage of. While not every game will be readily available at a discount, there are over 200 results available that have been discounted. Likewise, to help narrow down what video games you might be getting from this sale, it’s all Japan-inspired video game releases. That means if you already have games like Like A Dragon: Ishin! on your backlog to pick up, this sale event might help save you a bit of money.
