The weekend has officially arrived, bringing with it a wave of substantial discounts across major retailers for some of the most prominent video games and home entertainment releases of recent months. For gamers and collectors looking to stretch their entertainment budgets, Saturday, October 24, offers notable price cuts on massive RPGs, tactical hits, unique shooters, and blockbuster film collections. Retailers like Amazon and Walmart have rolled out promotions covering multiple hardware platforms, including the Nintendo Switch 2 and PlayStation 5, alongside anticipated physical pre-orders and digital bargains.
Chief among the weekend offerings is a significant price drop for Atlus’s acclaimed role-playing game Persona 3 Reload on the Nintendo Switch 2. Amazon has slashed the price of physical copies down to $24.99, marking an exceptional value for a title that easily commands upwards of 100 hours of gameplay. While the Nintendo Switch 2 port experienced a somewhat rocky rollout plagued by initial frame pacing issues, those performance hurdles have since been thoroughly addressed through patches. Furthermore, developer Atlus implemented official support for a stable 60 frames per second when the console is docked, ensuring a smooth and responsive experience for players exploring the Dark Hour.
Fans of tactical storytelling and expansive Japanese role-playing games will also find plenty to explore this weekend. The Adventures of Elliot: The Millennium Tales, which launched earlier this year in June, has received its very first official price cut. Amazon has reduced the price of the Amazon Exclusive Edition across all platforms to $44.99. The action-based HD-2D title earned praise for its distinctive visual direction. In its 8/10 review, critics highlighted that while the game carries a few minor flaws, it remains a standout action-adventure experience that continually reinforces why the HD-2D aesthetic ranks among the finest in modern game design.
Meanwhile, players looking to dive into classic series or prepare for upcoming expansions can take advantage of digital and physical promotions. Walmart is currently offering digital copies of Pikmin 4 for the Nintendo Switch at $39.88. This discount arrives at an opportune moment ahead of next month’s launch of Pikmin 4 – Nintendo Switch 2 Edition + Dandori Academy. Buyers who secure the current digital version can acquire the upcoming Switch 2 upgrade pack for $9.99, providing a much more economical alternative to paying full price for a next-generation standalone release.
Another prominent title seeing a price reduction is Star Wars Zero Company, which has quickly established itself as one of the standout sleeper hits of the year. Amazon has lowered the price of physical PlayStation 5 copies by $12. Earning a 9/10 review, the tactical game was lauded for successfully capturing the cinematic atmosphere established by Respawn Entertainment’s Star Wars Jedi series, while distinguishing itself through memorable characters and a narrative that purposefully centers on non-Force users and unconventional adversaries.
Physical media collectors have not been left out of the weekend promotions. Walmart has opened pre-orders for the Clayface Limited Edition 4K Ultra HD Steelbook, which includes both Blu-ray and digital copies. Based on the latest cinematic offering from DC Studios, which received a 7/10 review for its heavy reliance on old-school practical makeup effects and Tom Rhys Harries’s intense portrayal of Matt Hagen’s grotesque transformations, the steelbook release is expected to attract considerable interest from movie enthusiasts.
Square Enix’s massive RPG adaptation Final Fantasy VII Rebirth is also seeing a notable discount for Nintendo Switch 2 owners. Walmart has dropped physical copies of the game to $34.99. Beyond the core adventure, which expands the narrative far beyond the confines of Midgar, these specific physical copies come packaged with an exclusive Magic: The Gathering – Final Fantasy Zack Fair card, adding an extra layer of appeal for trading card game enthusiasts and series completionists alike.
For film fans seeking a complete cinematic marathon, 007 The Daniel Craig Collection is currently available on 4K UHD Blu-ray for $30.81. The box set compiles Casino Royale, Quantum of Solace, Skyfall, and Spectre, and notably features the unrated and extended cut of Casino Royale.
The weekend lineup further accommodates fans of narrative-driven role-playing games with sales on titles like Trails in the Sky 1st Chapter, which brings the opening entry of Falcom’s beloved series to PlayStation 5 following last year’s comprehensive remake. With the 2nd Chapter now available, the current pricing offers an ideal entry point for newcomers wanting to experience the foundational chapters of the overarching saga.
Additionally, Amazon has discounted physical PlayStation 5 copies of Mouse: P.I. For Hire to $24.99. Emerging as one of the most visually distinctive titles of the year with its authentic 1930s rubber-hose animation aesthetic, the game received praise in reviews for successfully blending classic cartoon styling with the atmosphere of traditional detective noir fiction, all while delivering an entertaining boomer shooter experience.
Finally, physical media enthusiasts eyeing upcoming Nintendo Switch 2 releases can secure a discount on The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake. Amazon has listed physical copies at $59.99 ahead of its upcoming release window. As one of the most anticipated and discussed classic reimaginings of 2026, the pre-order promotion offers fans a chance to secure the return to Hyrule at a reduced cost before the promotional window closes upon the game’s official launch.
