Mega Sale happened over at Epic Games Store, and gamers are losing their minds about it. These discounts are crazier than any glitched speedrun you’ve ever seen. Three sordid examples include The Witcher 3 at a $4 price tag (original $20), Red Dead Redemption 2 at $15 (original $60), and Cyberpunk 2077 for a mere $21. Yep, you read it right. So if your backlog was swimming until now, it’s going to be drowning!
Keep on with the madness if something could. Alan Wake 1 Remaster, over $1. Alan Wake 2 Deluxe, $25, down from $63. God of War, $16. GTA 5 Enhanced for 50%. Epic Games really did address our wallets with a “Nah, fam, you deserve nice things.” Can’t complain, really.
The internet, on the contrary, expressed itself. Many were hyped as @adil_1462 exclaimed, “Insane deals! Gamers, don’t sleep on this!” Meanwhile, @Soulbound_TV joked about their wallet doing a happy dance. But there were many who couldn’t casually shrug this off; @YandereSolar laid down the cold take: “Only for PC no one cares.” And @UziCryptoo said these games were straight-up “dead.” That audacious claim would probably find greatness among the Red Dead 2 fanbase.
Then came the confusion. @Pietrosmusi1221 clanged that it was a fake sale, claiming Alan Wake was not really $1. HYPEX threw a curveball with regional pricing explanations because sometimes deals do differ per location. Pro tip: Always check your region before rage-tweeting.
We should probably now talk about the likely true M.V.P. — Cyberpunk 2077. After its… *rocky* launches, this game actually is in decent shape now, for $21? As @Zer0MainsRiley pointed out: “If anyone has a chance to… BUY CYBERPUNK.” No notes.
But lo and behold, this was not the end of the chaos so far. @Droidsmain had the legendary rant demanding Disney collabs in Fortnite, because apparently, we *need* a National Geographic season. Meanwhile, @Bebot420 theorizes that it’s a matter of time before GTA and Red Dead skins drop in Fortnite–if Rockstar characters in the Item Shop wouldn’t break the internet in the first place.
Now, the real question: Should you get these skins? Uh, yes. Red Dead 2 for $15? That’s basically stealing. The Witcher 3 for $4? That’s a crime against capitalism. Alan Wake 2 for $25? That’s a steal for one of the best horror games in recent years.
Yeah, so if you have been holding off on buying any of these… now is the time. Your wallet might cry, but future-you will thank you. Just don’t blame us for your backlog turning into a black hole. Happy gaming, folks.
