GameStop has already discounted one of 2024’s best games — available on Nintendo Switch, PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X, and Xbox Series S — by 50 percent, taking the price of said game from $59.99 to $29.99. And considering the game has only been out since January, this is a pretty great deal, and probably the cheapest it will be until the holiday season, where we may see a $24.99 or even $19.99 price point.ย
