The Spring Sale at the PS Store has kicked off, offering some fantastic deals on popular PS4 and PS5 games. Among these is an acclaimed kung-fu action game that grabbed a nomination for Best Fighting Game at The Game Awards 2022.
Sifu Deluxe Edition is up for grabs at a massive 60% discount, bringing its price down to just $19.99 instead of the usual $49.99. This deal includes both the PS4 and PS5 versions, and players have a limited window to snap it up before it expires on April 24 at 2:49 A.M. PT.
The game invites players, whether they opt for a male or female protagonist, to delve into a gripping journey of vengeance, where they pursue their character’s family’s killers. As the game description puts it, “One against all, you have no allies, countless enemies, and a mysterious amulet to bring you back to life every time you die. Yet, be warned! Your secret weapon comes with a hefty price to pay: aging and its consequences.”
For those who opt for the Deluxe Edition, there are some nice extras included in the package:
– Sifu – Digital Edition
– Digital Original Soundtrack
– Official Sifu Digital Artbook
– Photomode Cinematic Pack
– Deluxe Exclusive Outfits
Just a heads up, this particular discount only applies to the Deluxe Edition. If you’re eyeing the Standard Edition, it’s still holding steady at $39.99.
When Sifu was launched by Sloclap in 2022, it received a warm welcome. On Metacritic, it managed an impressive average score of 81 based on 79 critic reviews. Besides its Best Fighting Game nomination at The Game Awards, it was also in the running for PlayStation Game of the Year at the Golden Joystick Awards.
In an exciting turn of events, Netflix is bringing Sifu to life as a live-action movie. The scriptwriting reins are in the hands of T.S. Nowlin, with production led by Chad Stahleski and 87Eleven Entertainment alongside Jason Spritz, Alex Young, Dimitri M. Johnson, and Mike Goldberg. Fans are eagerly anticipating a director announcement.
