If Sony’s decision to end physical disc production for new PlayStation games in 2028 has you thinking about building out your collection while you still can, Amazon has just opened up one of the best physical game deals we’ve seen in a while. Right now, you can pick up Crimson Desert on PS5 for just $49, a significant discount from its usual $69.99 retail price.
Lightning Deal
Crimson Desert – PS5

That matches the lowest price we’ve seen for the game at Amazon (beating its previous best of $56), according to price tracker camelcamelcamel, making it an easy recommendation if you’ve been waiting for a better and more affordable time to jump in.
This is also a “Lightning Deal” at Amazon, which means that stock is limited and will immediately expire once the allocated number is sold. So, you’ve got a limited time remaining to secure this discount as well.
Although the game launched to a somewhat mixed critical reception, Crimson Desert has found a passionate audience. It recently passed 6 million copies sold worldwide, and developer Pearl Abyss has continued supporting it with post-launch updates.
If you’re interested in where the game is heading next, IGN spoke with Pearl Abyss director of marketing and PR Will Powers during Summer Games Fest about the team’s future plans.
If you’re looking to keep expanding your physical collection, there are still plenty of upcoming releases available to preorder as well. Physical copies of games like Gears of War: E-Day, Onimusha: Way of the Sword, and The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered on Switch 2 are all available to reserve now, alongside plenty of other titles announced during this year’s summer gaming showcases.
