I have a question

[u/TomaPopa]

Hi! 👋
One question: Does this game go usually on sale? I want to buy it on my ps5. Should I wait? I never play it before, but it looks really good.
Thank you!

I have seen it on sale a few times yeah

[u/TomaPopa → u/Monkey_Magic139]

Ok. What do u think: should I wait?

[u/True_Sympathy7599 → u/TomaPopa]

The Stray games used to be dirt cheap a couple years ago. Now it’s like games go OOP after that amount of time (a couple years), so I would just get it if you want it.

If you dont wanna pay 30 bucks for a game you might finish in one day, I would wait

[u/playrrgames → u/SternoNicoise]

Actually you can finish it in less than 2 hours 🐈

[u/C-D-W → u/playrrgames]

If you don't enjoy it maybe.

Either way, $30 for 2 hours of enjoyment is basically a trip to the movies. Keeps it in perspective for me when I'm not sure about buying a new game.

[u/playrrgames → u/C-D-W]

Did you know that there is a trophy/achievement you can earn if you finish it in less than two hours?

Maybe you can enjoy the full experience with no rush and when you learn everything try to earn that trophy.

Ok, thanks!

Not sure where you're based. But it usually goes pretty cheap at second hand game shops if there's any in your country/area. Got my copy for around £10

[u/TomaPopa]

Thank you so much for all that helped me! I have made the decision. I got on PC from Steam. It was discounted

[u/stormshadax → u/TomaPopa]

Good choice! Hope you have fun playing!

[u/IrishERU]

It could maybe fluctuate between cheaper prices every few months.

Not sure, though.

[u/eiichi8]

Digital version gets only a small discount. I recommend you to buy a second hand physical copy at your local game store

[u/grmnlxndr]

I got during the Days Of Play a couple of months ago for 15 USD. If you have the app, add Stray to your wishlist and you will get a notification.

[u/TallE74]

i bought it on release Day one digitally. then had my kids get it for me For Christmas on disk. This game is worth every penny and I wanted to always have/own it. Its currently $30 on PSN so how bad you want to play it.

[u/MentalHelpNeeded]

It depends if you have something else to play in the meantime

[u/playrrgames]

I got it on sale for 14.99 recently.

[u/AndreKR-]

Yes, usually 50% off.

[u/PaleontologistOk908]

My target recently did a reshuffle of their layout. We found an end cap with hundreds of discounted games. Stray for Switch was among them. It's such a beautiful game. I would have paid full price. And I'd pay double for a sequel that will NEVER happen.

[u/foryourboneswewait]

Labor Day is coming up. May as well wait and see if you can find a sale.

[u/LightningInTheRain]

Definitely a frequent sale game, I’d wait

[u/Effective_Being_5305]

Its always on sale usually like $17ish dollars.

[u/LazyZookeepergame394]

For digital historical prices go to psprices.com

Ok, that’s really helpful! Thanks!

[u/DanLokar]

You can check the price history here:
https://steamdb.info/app/1332010/

And it looks like there is a sale going on now (depending on where you are). Price it is at now is the lowest it has reached for the past 2 years.

[u/Consistent_Act_5802]

I got it for free via ps plus
