Sony has kicked off the PlayStation Store January sale early for PlayStation Plus subscribers, with big discounts on Forza Horizon 5 and Battlefield 6.

Christmas hasn’t even happened yet but bargain chasers will be thinking about the January sales already, especially those disappointed by last month’s Black Friday line-up.

The PlayStation Store has sales running all the time, but the one in January is usually better than the average. This year’s one is expected to start later this month, but if you’re a PlayStation Plus subscriber, Sony has kicked off the discounts already.

So what’s on offer? Mortal Kombat 1 is hard to resist at the cheap price of £8.99. However, if you prefer Tekken, the latest title in the series is only £19.99.

Forza Horizon 5, which made the jump from Xbox to PlayStation 5 this year, has dropped to £32.99, which is a great price for one of the best racing games out there. Battlefield 6 is 30% off, while Star Wars Outlaws continues to be temptingly cheap at £20.99.

This is only a taster of the full January sale, which is expected to go live once this early access period ends, after Sunday, December 21. You can find some highlights below, or the full line-up of discounted titles here.

As for what games are slated for next year, January looks reasonably quiet for PlayStation 5 owners, between MIO: Memories In Orbit and Highguard, but February is absolutely stacked, with Nioh 3, Renimal, Resident Evil Requiem, Yakuza Kiwami 3, and Romeo Is A Dead Man.

PlayStation’s first party big hitters are set to come later in the year, with Saros and Marvel’s Wolverine set for April and autumn, respectively.

If you’re after a cheap PlayStation 5 console before Christmas, you can find some cheap deals over on Currys.
