5/10Not sure whatβs happening on PSN Asia this week? We got you covered.
Some of you may have noticed that Sony Interactive Entertainment shut down their PS Asia blog. Whether this is permanent or not, weβre not sure ourselves but some of us have clearly used this as a means to know whatβs happening for PSN users in the Asia region.
Well, despite the loss of the blog, we know exactly whatβs going on. So if youβre not sure whatβs happening this week on the PlayStation Network, donβt worry, we got you covered.

Whatβs Happening on PSN This Week?
EA Game Sale

First up, we have the EA Game Sale, where up to 80% discount is available for a selected number of EA games on the PlayStation Store. If youβre thinking βHow come EA is doing a sale so often?β, then my only answer for you is that I donβt think they ever stopped it from when they first started it.
Thereβs games like FIFA 17, Battlefield 1, Mirrorβs Edge Catalyst, and even Star Wars: Battlefront up for sale. However, if you donβt own Star Wars: Battlefront, I would highly advise against buying it anyway unless youβre sure youβll be playing with friends. Yeah, I know it has a discount but itβs just not worth it.
Β
Deal of the Month

For this timeβs Deal of the Month on PSN, we have the ever-popular Senran Kagura. Estival Versus in both English and Chinese languages. Itβs going for RM98.50 and RM84.50 respectively until April 30th 2017.
The game is based on the anime and manga βSenran Kaguraβ, which is widely known for having more bewbs than story. Iβm not kidding, have you seen them? Donβt worry, weβre not going to judge if you choose to buy it. Everyone has their own tastes after all.
Β
Up to 50% Off on Watch Dogs 2

Some of you may be thinking βWhat do you mean up to 50% off for a single game? Itβs just one game!β but allow me to explain. First up, we have the Digital Standard edition (English, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, and Korean), which is available with a 50% discount at RM120.00.
Then we have the Digital Gold EditionΒ (English, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, and Korean), which is available with a 40% discount at RM210. Then we have the Season Pass with 37% discount going for RM94.50 and the Root Access Bundle, which comes with an extra mission and items, with a 28% discount at RM15.12.
Β
PaRappa The Rapper Remastered PS Plus Bonus

Next up, we have the lovable PaRappa The Rapper returning in high definition glory. With it, thereβs a special bonus for PS Plus users. For an early purchase bonus (until 4th May 2017), youβll get a PaRappa the Rapper Dynamic Theme for your PS4!
I mean, itβs nothing much but if you have fond memories of PaRappa the Rapper and you plan on getting the game anyway, why not right?
Β
Furi Special Discount

The highly acclaimed fast-paced slasher is available with a 30% discount, effectively being on sale for RM35.00. If youβre a PS Plus user, you can get an additional 40% discount on top of the discount.
However, if you plan on taking advantage of this deal you have to be quick about it. The offer ends tomorrow, 11th April 2017, at precisely 11:59pm so if you plan on buying it, best to do it as soon as you can use your PlayStation 4 console and access PSN.
Β
Destiny 2 Pre-Order Discount

Just when you heard about Destiny supposedly having so many updates that it shouldnβt have a sequel, a sequel actually comes along. If you plan on buying the game, thereβs a pre-order discount available on PSN.
If you pre-order by 7th September 2017, you will get 9% discount for the Digital Deluxe edition. This effectively brings the price down to RM379.00 instead of the usual RM419. Itβs not much but itβs something. The standard edition will still be priced at RM229.00 regardless.

Pokdepinion: Doesnβt seem like the EA Game Sale is ever going to end. But I suppose, itβs better to have some discounts rather than none. Is this something major? No, definitely not, but if thereβs something youβve been eyeing for a while and itβs available with a discount now, might as well grab it while you can on PSN.
