Weekend shopping lists are getting a serious injection of value as major retailers roll out deep discounts on blockbuster titles and anticipated physical releases. Leading the charge for October, enthusiast gamers looking to stretch their budgets can secure substantial savings on massive RPGs, tactical hits, and collectible editions across multiple platforms.
Persona 3 Reload Switch 2 Leads the Weekend Price Cuts
Atlus’s critically acclaimed supernatural RPG is seeing a notable price drop at Amazon, where Persona 3 Reload Switch 2 copies are available for $24.99 this weekend. For players looking to sink roughly 100 hours into a deeply engaging adventure, this price point offers incredible value.

While the hybrid console’s version faced a rocky launch plagued by frame pacing issues, those technical hurdles have since been resolved. Atlus also patched in support for a smooth 60 FPS in docked mode, making this discounted physical version well worth jumping into for RPG enthusiasts.
More Notable Weekend Game Deals and Pre-Orders
Beyond Atlus’s hit RPG, several other notable titles and hardware collections are seeing steep discounts and opening up for pre-orders:
- The Adventures of Elliot: The Millennium Tales: Released this past June, this action-focused HD-2D adventure is on sale for the first time. Amazon has discounted copies across all platforms to $44.99. In an 8/10 review, critics praised the title for continuing to prove why the HD-2D art style remains an industry standout.
- Pikmin 4: Walmart has digital copies for the Nintendo Switch on sale for $39.88. Picking this up now offers a strategic advantage ahead of next month’s launch of Pikmin 4 – Nintendo Switch 2 Edition + Dandori Academy, allowing players to secure the $9.99 Switch 2 upgrade pack rather than paying a full $70 price tag later.
- Star Wars Zero Company: Recognized as one of the standout sleeper hits of the year, physical PlayStation 5 copies are discounted by $12 at Amazon, bringing the price down to $47.97. The tactical game earned a 9/10 review for its cinematic look and feel, paired with a refreshing narrative focused on non-Force users.
- Clayface Steelbook: Collectors tracking the latest DC Studios releases can now secure pre-orders for the Clayface Limited Edition 4K Ultra HD Steelbook at Walmart. The film received a 7/10 review, highlighted by its heavy reliance on old-school practical makeup effects to depict Matt Hagen’s transformations.
