I’ve recently come out of isolation after sadly not being able to escape the big C. And I can tell you that a lot of that time was spent playing Deep Rock Galactic (great game, you should play it).
If you are one of the Kiwis finding themselves in and out of iso, you might have caught yourself checking out new games to buy (like me with DRG). According to PriceSpy, the most-clicked on games over March – in the middle of our Kiwi Covid-spree – were a few games that definitely won’t surprise you.
Look at that, Elden Ring is on top? *shocked pikachu face*
I’m also glad to see Horizon Forbidden West on there, because I have played it (review is still in the works, I’m so sorry), and TLDR: I enjoyed it. But I do think Nintendo’s rigged the system because Ring Fit Adventure is still on there as it always is every. Single. Month. 2017 release Mario Kart Deluxe 8 for the Switch is also on the leaderboard, but at least it’s pumping out exciting new tracks to play.
In any case, whatever you’re looking for, I recommend making PriceSpy one of your first places to check for bargains. All that cash saved in iso could go a lot further with $20+ savings on that PlayStation game you’re eyeing.
