Even with Halloween now in the past, it feels like almost every game under the sun is on some kind of sale for the holiday. Storefronts like Steam, GOG, and PlayStation all have big sales running right now that you can take advantage of. Not to be outdone, EA has joined the club, offering its own bounty of treats in a Steam sale that extends the spooky season fun until November 11.
The Week In Games: A Star Wars Classic Returns & More New Releases
As this is the Electronic Arts Halloween sale, and you are probably in the mood for something scary, there is no better place to start than 2023’s Dead Space. A top-to-bottom remake of the 2008 modern horror masterpiece that is essentially Resident Evil 4 but in space this time, Dead Space still stands as one of the scariest games you can play. The remake modernizes the horrifying setting of the seemingly abandoned space ship The USG Ishimura to great effect, making the atmosphere even spookier than it was in the original. Dismembering enemies with your plasma cutter remains a satisfying way to take down the zombie-like necromorphs, even if it doesn’t make them any less terrifying to look at. If you like it, the rest of the series is on sale too!
Of course there are plenty of games offering something other than Dead Space’s scares to get as well. Here are some highlights to look out for during the EA Halloween sale.
- Dead Space (2023) – $17.99 (was $59.99)
- Dead Space (2008) – $7.99 (was $19.99)
- Dead Space 2 – $3.99 (was $19.99)
- Dead Space 3 – $3.99 (was $19.99)
- Titanfall 2 – $4.79 (was $29.99)
- Burnout Paradise Remastered – $3.99 (was $19.99)
- Mass Effect Legendary Edition – $8.99 (was $59.99)
- It Takes Two – $13.99 (was $39.99)
- Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order – $7.99 (was $39.99)
- Star Wars Jedi: Survivor – $24.99 (was $69.99)
- Mirror’s Edge – $4.99 (was $19.99)
If you’re over the Halloween mood, then might I suggest diving into Mass Effect Legendary Edition? This collection of the first three games in the series is a bargain for less than ten bucks and will give you one of the best epics in gaming, full of wonderful characters. Sure, everybody else is currently enjoying BioWare’s latest release, Dragon Age: The Veilguard, but you can’t really compete with three games for such a low price.
