PlayStation offering $100 off the Ghost of Yotei PS5, aka my most wanted item, is not the Cyber Monday temptation I need right now

I'm sitting here helping find you some excellent Cyber Monday deals, wearing a Ghost of Yotei hoodie, and then I see this. How dare you tempt me like this, PlayStation, by dropping the price of both special-edition Ghost of Yotei PS5 consoles by $100 in Cyber Monday PS5 deals.

I've basically not stopped playing Ghost of Yotei since it came out in October, snatching every free minute I can spare to dive into it's amazing open world with Atsu and her quest for revenge. I'm sorry Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, I love you dearly, but its Ghost of Yotei that takes my award for GOTY this year.

If I had any spare cash right now and didn't already have two PS5s, two gaming PCs and numerous other gaming consoles, I would be absolutely buying one of these Ghost of Yotei PS5s. PlayStation Direct has $100 off both the black and gold versions of these stunning limited edition designs, although the gold keeps coming in and out of stock.

Limited Edition Ghost of Yotei PS5 Gold | $599 $499 at PlayStation Direct
Save $100 - This gold version of the limited edition Ghost of Yotei PS5 captures the spirit of the game perfectly. As well as capturing the mountain and map landmarks, It symbolises the yellow ginkgo leaves that are so pivotal to the game's narrative, but in a stunning gold that's reminiscent of the Kintsugi pottery repair technique.

Should you buy the Limited Edition Ghost of Yotei PS5 console?

If you're anything like me and have absolutely fallen in love with both Ghost of Tsushima and now Ghost of Yotei, I honestly believe you deserve one of these. These are both PS5 Slim consoles, complete with disc drive, but with the limited edition designs.

At $499, you are essentially paying $50 for the limited edition design. Walmart currently has the standard PS5 Slim for $449, but the usual RRP for the normal slim being $549 and the limited edition ones at $599, this is still an exceptionally good deal for a console design that won't be around forever.
