Summer Sale Showdown: Best Discounted Games on Xbox Game Pass and PlayStation Plus Right Now

The sun’s out and the deals are hot. This summer, both Xbox Game Pass and PlayStation Plus are dropping prices on some of the year’s best titles. For gamers and console renters alike, this is one of the best times to load up on top-tier experiences without blowing your budget.

Whether you’re chilling at home or taking time off with friends, summer gaming hits different. And with Game Pass and PS Plus pushing massive mid-year discounts, there’s no better time to explore new games or finally try the ones you’ve been meaning to play.

If you’re renting a console through Craving for Gaming, or thinking about it, this guide will help you get the most out of the season’s best digital deals.

Top Picks on Xbox Game Pass This Summer

One of the most exciting returns to Game Pass this month is High on Life, a bizarre but hilarious shooter created by Justin Roiland. It officially rejoined the Game Pass catalog on July 15 and is playable across console, PC, and cloud.

Also making waves are Little Nightmares II and Crash Bandicoot 4, now available with Game Pass perks. These are ideal for short summer gaming bursts and still pack a ton of replay value.

For players looking for big-time action, the Game Pass member sale features hits like Red Dead Redemption 2, Gears of War: Reloaded, and Rise of the Tomb Raider at discounts up to 75%. The full lineup is available via Windows Central’s Game Pass tracker.

PlayStation Plus Discounts You Shouldn’t Miss

PlayStation users aren’t missing out either. This July, PS Plus Essential subscribers get Diablo IV, The King of Fighters XV, and Jusant as part of the free games lineup.

Beyond that, Sony’s Mid-Year Sale includes steep discounts on standout titles like Black Myth: Wukong and Lies of P. If you’re into stylish action games or story-driven RPGs, this is the right time to grab them. A full list is available from Push Square’s curated picks.

Why This Sale Season Actually Matters

Let’s be real. Gaming isn’t cheap. But summer sales like these flip the script.

● You get AAA games at indie prices

● You can explore genres outside your usual picks

● And with rentals, you avoid dropping ₹50K on hardware

For anyone who’s ever felt left out of big releases due to price or platform, this summer is the perfect comeback.
