PlayStation Store Highlights

Our PSN PLAY promotion is coming to an end with one of the most beloved classics of all time: Counter Strike. CS: Global Offensive is available for pre-order for $14.99 or $11.99 for PlayStation Plus members. Those who pre-order receive a static theme, and the more PSN PLAY opportunities you take advantage of, the more credit you’ll receive to use on other items in the PlayStation Store.

Papo & Yo, last week’s PSN PLAY game, is now available on the PlayStation Store. A fantasy adventure game, Papo & Yo has been lauded for its emotional subject matter and puzzle-centric gameplay. If you’re curious about this indie darling, there’s a free demo available, so you can try before you buy.

The PlayStation Plus Instant Game Collection is getting a boost this week with both Outland and BloodRayne: Betrayal joining the lineup. Outland, the critically acclaimed PSN title from Ubisoft, is a 2D platformer with stunning visuals. The bloody side-scroller BloodRayne: Betrayal was a part of last year’s PSN PLAY catalogue, but if you missed out on snagging it then, you have a second chance. In addition to the free games, Plus members also get a 20% discount on Papo & Yo along with a full game trial of CSI: Fatal Conspiracy.

Finally, if you’re eager for the football season to begin you can try out EA’s Madden NFL 13 before it hits stores on August 28th and if you like it, you can also pre-order it.
