According to the retailer's listing, the physical edition of the game includes immediate unlock access to the 'Spider-Man: Brand New Day' in-game cosmetic suit. For a blockbuster that usually commands the kind of pricing reserved for a moderately fancy dinner, a sudden plunge to thirty dollars is a welcome shift in financial gravity.
The details
- Sale price: $30 (regularly $70)
- Discount: $40 off
- Retailer: Best Buy (Back to School promotion)
- Platform: PlayStation 5
- Bonus: 'Spider-Man: Brand New Day' cosmetic suit unlock
