Best Game Deals This Week (October 26 - November 1, 2026)
Every major storefront is running a Halloween sale at the same time this week. PlayStation, Xbox, and Nintendo all have big horror-themed events live right now, Steam Scream Fest kicks off today, and Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade lands on Game Pass Thursday.
The catch? These sales end on different days, and Nintendo's wraps up first on Halloween night. Here's what's worth your money.
Top 5 Deals of the Week
| Game | Platform | Sale Price | Regular | Discount | Ends |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade | Xbox Game Pass | Included | N/A | N/A | Arrives Oct 29 |
| The Walking Dead: The Telltale Definitive Series | Steam | $4.99 | $49.99 | 90% | Nov 5 |
| STAR WARS Jedi: Survivor | Xbox Series X|S | $13.99 | $69.99 | 80% | Nov 5 (late night PT) |
| Alan Wake 2 | Xbox | $17.99 | $59.99 | 70% | Nov 4 |
| Persona 5 Royal | Nintendo Switch | $17.99 | $59.99 | 70% | Oct 31, 11:59 PM PT |
Why These Made the Cut
Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade: It hits Game Pass on October 29, and it's available on the Premium tier, not just Ultimate. If you've been holding off on buying it, stop holding off and just play it.
The Walking Dead: The Telltale Definitive Series: $4.99 for every season, plus the bonus content. That matches the lowest price on record across major PC stores (per CheapShark). Don't buy it on PlayStation, where the same sale has it at $12.49.
STAR WARS Jedi: Survivor: 80% off makes this one of the best AAA prices of the month. Check your subscriptions first. It's included with EA Play, so Game Pass Ultimate members may already have it for free.
Alan Wake 2: Remedy's survival horror sequel at $17.99, during the one week of the year you actually want to play it. It's not on Game Pass, so this is the cheapest way in on Xbox.
Persona 5 Royal: A 100-hour JRPG for $17.99. The Nintendo sale ends Halloween night, which is earlier than every other sale on this list. Grab it first.

October 29 is the big day. Final Fantasy VII Remake is the headliner, but don't sleep on Mouthwashing, a short, unsettling horror game that fits the week perfectly. FF7R, The Séance of Blake Manor, and Pit of Goblin are also coming to the Premium tier.
Also on PS Plus Extra (Oct 27): Poppy Playtime: Chapter 2, Tales of Arise: Beyond the Dawn Edition, and Monster Energy Supercross 25 join the Game Catalog. Tales of Arise is on sale for Switch 2 right now at $34.99, but if you have PS Plus Extra, skip buying it. You're getting it on Tuesday.

| Dying Light 2 Stay Human: Digital Extras Edition (PS5) | $13.99 | N/A | 80% |
Standout: Bloodborne at $9.99. It's still a PS4 exclusive, still one of the best games FromSoftware has made, and $10 is about as low as it gets.
PlayStation Store prices come from Gaming Bible and MP1st (they match each other), not directly from Sony. Confirm in the store before you buy.
Xbox Store: Shocktober Sale
Over 1,200 deals, running through November 4 (Microsoft's catalog shows most deals ending around 2 AM PT on November 5).
| Game | Sale Price | Regular | Discount |
|---|---|---|---|

| Cult of the Lamb | $9.99 | $24.99 | 60% |
| Cronos: The New Dawn | $29.99 | $59.99 | 50% |
Standout: Grab both Alan Wake games for $22.48 total. Neither one is on Game Pass. Quick heads-up on the Dead Island bundle: Dead Island 2 is already on Game Pass, so subscribers are mostly paying for the first game and Riptide.
Pure Xbox also reports The Outlast Trials Deluxe Edition at $4.99 (90% off), though we couldn't confirm that one in Microsoft's catalog.
Nintendo eShop: Screaming Deals
This one ends first: October 31 at 11:59 PM PT. It covers both Switch 2 and original Switch games.

| Tunic | $14.99 | $29.99 | 50% |
Last chance: Inscryption at $4.99 is the best horror pick on the eShop. Pair it with Death's Door for under $9 total. Both deals die on Halloween night.
Nintendo's official sale page doesn't list prices. These come from Nintendo Everything and Nintendo Life, which match each other.
Steam: Scream Fest Starts Today
Steam Scream Fest reportedly runs October 26 at 10 AM PT through November 2 at 10 AM PT. The prices below were captured before it went live, so horror games may get even cheaper once it starts. Silent Hill 2, Dead Space, Alien: Isolation, and The Evil Within weren't discounted yet. Keep an eye on them.
| Game | Sale Price | Regular | Discount |
|---|---|---|---|
| The Walking Dead: The Telltale Definitive Series | $4.99 | $49.99 | 90% |

Historical lows: The Walking Dead ($4.99) and Rise of the Tomb Raider ($2.99) both match the lowest prices on record across major PC stores. GTA V Enhanced is a good price, but it's not a low. It hit $12.90 in September 2025.
Last chance (ends today at 11 AM PT): Cyberpunk 2077 is $17.99 (70% off), matching its lowest recorded price. Phantom Liberty is $17.99 (40% off). If you're reading this after 11 AM Pacific, it's gone.

Track These Deals Automatically
Four sales ending on four different days is exactly why manual deal hunting doesn't work. Vaulted.Games tracks prices across PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo, and Steam, and tells you when a game on your wishlist hits your target price. It also shows you when a game is already in Game Pass or PS Plus, so you never pay for something you already have access to. Add the games you want, set your price, and let the alerts do the work.
