The PlayStation Store's 2024 Summer Sale has officially gone live, bringing with it 4,770 discounted items for players in the United States. The yearly promotional period offers compelling deals on a plethora of fan-favorite games, such as Elden Ring, Alan Wake 2, Hogwarts Legacy, and more, making it worth a look for PlayStation users.
While PlayStation frequently runs promotions on its digital storefront all year long, the platform's annual Summer Sale often serves up some of the best deals on coveted games from both first-party and third-party developers, as well as indie titles that may interest players. The 2023 PlayStation Summer Sale offered over 3,000 deals, but for 2024, the gaming giant has dialed up the discounts to 11.

Thanks to its vast multitude of discounts, the 2024 Summer Sale offers PlayStation users a great opportunity to lighten up their growing wishlists.
