PlayStation Makes Popular PS4 Horror Games Just $3 for Halloween

PlayStation’s massive Halloween Sale is live on the PlayStation Store with nearly 350 deals on PS4 games and some PS5 games as well. And as you would expect, horror games heavily populate the sale. Featured in the promotional sale are series and games like The Walking Dead, Resident Evil, Dying Light, DayZ, Diablo, Five Nights at Freddy’s, Until Dawn, Dragon Age, and The Evil Within. As you can see by the inclusion of Dragon Age especially, PlayStation is playing fast and loose with what qualifies as a “Halloween” game. That said, for the most part, it’s horror games and franchises, or at least games and franchises with horror elements.

To this end, we have highlighted some of the cheapest deals within the sale. More specifically, five games under $3 and that we can recommend. There are some even cheaper games featured in the sale but unless you’re looking for a bad Halloween experience you should stay far away from them.

Below, you can check out all five games. This includes a trailer for each game, a description for each game, and a link to the unique PlayStation Store page for each game.

About: “In the remote mountains of Colorado, horrors wait inside Mount Massive Asylum.

Acting on a tip from an anonymous source, independent journalist Miles Upshur breaks into the facility, and what he discovers walks a terrifying line between science and religion, nature and something else entirely. Once inside, his only hope of escape lies with the terrible truth at the heart of Mount Massive. Outlast is a true survival horror experience which aims to show that the most terrifying monsters of all come from the human mind.
