Thank your own personaly deity—possibly Jin Dahaad—it's Friday. It's also time to tuck into some wallet-friendly wonders, with digital delights across Nintendo Switch, Xbox Series X, PS5 and PC all copping hefty discounts. Until Monday, do stay safe and save often!
This Day in Gaming 
In retro news, I'm celebrating the 28th birthday of Suikoden, an all-timer PS One classic. In case you're not familiar with it, you control the son of a general destined to seek out 108 warriors to defeat a corrupt government and bring peace to the land. Not only did it feature duels and large turn based battles, but also packed a large amount of depth into its magic and combat system. The HD remaster is well worth smashing.

Over on Xbox Series X, Star Wars Outlaws lands at $49—a galaxy-sized steal.
