AU Deals: Seriously Catchable Cuts on Pokémon Legends, Death Stranding 2, Space Marine 2, and More!

VUBot · Jun 23, 2025

Clear the digital cobwebs off your wishlist and stretch those thumbs because some absolute gems are on sale across every major platform this week. Whether you're chasing a retro-style indie for loose change or something AAA to chew on until tax returns hit, there’s something to tempt just about everyone. Enough talk, though. Let's get amongst some bargains!

This Day in Gaming

In retro news, I'm celebrating the 28th birthday of my personal favourite moustache racer, Mario Kart 64. What sold me was its first-in-series 4P multi, and probably about a hundred hours spent doing "winner plays on" 150cc VS. Mode and Block Fort balloon battles at a mate's house. When the surf was crap in Kiama, his headland-based abode basically became the local youth drop in centre—just a constant state of shoulder-to-shoulder competition and trash talk. Truly, some of the best gaming years of my life.

Purchase Cheap for PC

PC has Horizon Forbidden West at 40% off, with wide monitor support so glorious you’ll wish the real world had ultrawide FOV. And for loose change, SteamWorld Dig 2 offers a charmingly chunky Metroidvania that was partly prototyped on paper before going digital.
