## Key points

- Crimson Desert PS5 physical copy discounted to $49 at Amazon
- Lightning Deal is limited-time and while stock lasts
- Comes as Sony plans to end physical PS5 discs by 2028

## Summary

Amazon is offering a "Lightning Deal" on the physical PS5 edition of Crimson Desert, cutting the price to $49 from its usual $69.99. The discount, which is time-limited and will end once stock runs out, matches the lowest price the game has reached on Amazon, according to price-tracking site CamelCamelCamel. The deal is particularly notable given Sony's plans to end physical disc production for new PlayStation titles from 2028, making it a good moment for collectors to buy physical copies while still available.

Crimson Desert, developed by Pearl Abyss, received a mixed critical reception on release but has proved popular with players, recently surpassing six million copies sold worldwide. The developer continues to support the game with post-launch updates. Shoppers looking to expand their physical game collections can also pre-order other forthcoming titles, including Gears of War: E-Day, Onimusha: Way of the Sword, and The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered for Switch 2.
