That looks interesting, but I've not got anything to play it on :( Hope they do a Switch or Android release.

If anyone sees a good deal for Witcher 3 on Switch, let me know. I have always meant to play it and now we're back in lockdown and no big games are out for a few months, I think I will have time to get through it. I plan to pick up the PC version too and then use the cross save function between both versions, as that way I am more likely to get through it before any big titles come out later in the year.

I've had half an eye on it and never seen it cheaper than £35 since launch online. Kicked myself as prior to Christmas someone was selling it for £25 on Facebook.

It's not The Witcher 3, but I'm enjoying Dragons Dogma on Switch at the moment which is often in a sale (grabbed it when it was £12 over Christmas). Don't know if it interests you, but if you did end up picking it up we could share some exciting pawn! :D

It's currently £35 on the eShop, if that's any good?

Looking for below £30 but thanks. I found this website which informs you of when switch games fall below a price you can set on eshop or physical.

With a physical like The Witcher 3, I'd just sell it later to keep it very budget safe. £35 now, sell it for £25-30 in 6 months, not a problem. I played Breath of the Wild and Fire Emblem: Three Houses for "free" like this, and many others dead cheap.

My current deal share is Deus Ex Mankind Divided and Grid Ultimate Ed for a combined £6.29 here. Usually the Fanatical deals are a bit thin with only 1 standout game, but only needing to buy 2 to trigger it makes it much easier to find a "good enough" pair.

So if you buy a 12 month ea access code it automatically gets changed into 4 months game pass ultimate.

I've just done it twice and got 8 months for £33.70

Thanks for pointing this out, I went and claimed The Walking Dead Final Season which is the only season in the series I'm yet to play having enjoyed them all up to this point and Deus Ex Mankind Divided. I remember playing the first hour on PS4 when it was on PS Plus but didn't grab me at the time as I wasn't really looking for that kind of experience at the time. I'm sure I will like it though as I enjoyed Human Revolution, just need to wait till I'm wanting to play that kind of game.

This isn't a deal as such, but just wondering if people on here have used Boomerang Games at all?

It's a UK service for renting games and I can't fault it at all. It's got a massive selection of games, even all the REALLY niche ones that I didn't know got physical releases.

I've found it's the best way to play older games that you missed when they first came out. For 4 quid a month, I can rent games that came out at least six months ago. As I'm never playing 'the newest' titles anyway, I find that paying about 50 pounds for a years gaming is fine by me.

Just thought I'd put it here as a good way to keep up with your gaming and not fork out a fortune.

Dex is currently £1.50 on Switch. Had my eye on it for a while and this is an all time low price. 2D cyberpunk platform adventure, hacking, combat etc. Inspired by old stuff like Flashback etc.

Ah sadly I think I must have caught it right on the end of the sale as its shot back up to £18 now. Still, it's on sale every other week so keep an eye out, that's the lowest I've ever seen it, usually hovers around £8.
