Is This Week’s Big Gaming Deal Wave Worth It?
This week’s gaming deals are a mix of permanent price cuts and limited video game flash sales that bring several big-name titles and accessories under USD 60 (approx. RM276), giving players on PlayStation, Nintendo, and PC a rare chance to expand their libraries and upgrade their gear without breaking the bank. The headline bargain is a permanent Monster Hunter Wilds price drop from Capcom, while Dragon Quest remake deals on PS5 and a sub-USD 10 (approx. RM46) wired controller anchor some of the best budget gaming discounts of the week.
Verdict: yes, this is a week worth jumping on if you have even a small backlog budget. A permanent cut on a major release, a high-profile RPG remake at its lowest price, and a multi-platform controller under USD 10 (approx. RM46) are stronger than the usual daily sale noise.
Monster Hunter Wilds drops from £59.99 / USD 69.99 (approx. RM321) to £34.99 / USD 39.99 (approx. RM183), while several PS5 and PC titles and accessories see 25–50% discounts, putting almost everything highlighted here below USD 60 (approx. RM276).
Monster Hunter Wilds Price Drop: The New Entry Point
Monster Hunter Wilds from Capcom has seen a permanent price reduction, which alone makes it one of the most important budget gaming discounts available right now. The price has dropped from £59.99 / USD 69.99 (approx. RM321) to £34.99 / USD 39.99 (approx. RM183), and Capcom says the move comes from a decision to streamline the packages offered for the game.
The game’s hook is a living ecosystem: “The unbridled force of nature runs wild and relentless, with environments transforming drastically from one moment to the next.” Weather shifts trigger harsh hunting periods and more plentiful windows where wildlife flourishes, and monsters adapt to these changes with their own survival tricks. You play a hunter tracking and defeating these creatures, then forge weapons and armor from the materials you harvest while uncovering the link between the Forbidden Lands and its people.
Capcom now sells a Gold Edition that bundles all previously released DLC plus a new Extras Cosmetic DLC Pack, which turns the already solid Monster Hunter Wilds price drop into a clean, future-proof way to start or return to the series.
Dragon Quest Remake Deals and Other Top Game Discounts
If you prefer classic JRPGs, Dragon Quest I & II HD-2D Remake for PS5 is one of this week’s standout Dragon Quest remake deals, currently 50% off its usual price and down to USD 30 (approx. RM138) at Walmart. This modernized collection takes the retro role-playing foundations of the early Dragon Quest entries, adds new story content, and wraps them in a stylish HD-2D presentation that has already earned strong critical praise.
On the same platform, Lost Soul Aside for PS5 is reduced to USD 20 (approx. RM92), making it a low-risk pick for action RPG fans despite its mixed review reception. PC players are not left out either: Silent Hill: Townfall’s PC preorder is 25% off at Fanatical, bringing the upcoming horror title down in price while still delivering a Steam code for launch.
These video game flash sales are the kind that tend to vanish quickly, and they meaningfully undercut standard pricing across PS5 and PC. If you want variety under USD 60 (approx. RM276), combining Dragon Quest, a discounted action game, and a horror preorder is strong value.
Budget Gaming Accessories and Multi-Platform Setups
Deals on software are stronger when you can also upgrade your hardware, and the GameSir Tegenaria Lite Wired Game Controller might be the sleeper hit of this sale wave. The controller is USD 8.99 (approx. RM41) at Walmart, already 50% off, and you can apply the code GAMESIR2026 at checkout for another USD 1 (approx. RM4.60) off, pushing the effective price under USD 9 (approx. RM41).
This wired pad is a multi-platform workhorse: it works with PC and also “seamlessly with the Switch and Switch 2,” making it a good fit if you bounce between platforms. It features a 1000 Hz polling rate, anti-drift Hall Effect sticks, two mappable back buttons, vibration motors, and a turbo function, all in an ergonomic shell with a retro look. That combination pairs neatly with discounted games, turning a single cheap controller into the heart of a complete gaming setup that works across Nintendo, PlayStation (via PC streaming), and PC systems.
Between a permanently discounted Monster Hunter Wilds, Dragon Quest remake deals on PS5, a cut-price Silent Hill: Townfall preorder for PC, and a universal controller that supports both PC and Switch systems, this week’s multi-platform lineup offers a lot of flexibility for players with varied tastes.
