Dragon Quest VII: Fragments of the Forgotten Past just got a full modern reimagining, and this weekend you can grab it on any platform for $49.99, down from its regular $59.99 price tag.
The Dragon Quest VII Reimagined deal you should not sleep on
Square Enix launched Dragon Quest VII Reimagined back in February, and it quickly became one of the biggest RPG releases of the year. The 17% discount brings it to $49.99 across PS5, Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch, Switch 2, and PC. If you have been sitting on the fence, this is a genuinely good entry point into the series, especially if the HD-2D Erdrick Trilogy Remakes already have you in a Dragon Quest mood.
Here's the thing: Dragon Quest VII is one of the longest entries in the franchise, with a sprawling island-restoration story that can run well over 100 hours. Getting that at $10 off its launch price is a solid deal for the amount of content you are getting.
Splatoon Raiders pre-orders are live at a discount
Splatoon Raiders, the first single-player-focused game in the Splatoon series, launches July 23 on Nintendo Switch 2. Pre-orders are already live at Walmart for $49.94, which is about $10 under the standard $59.99 retail price. Three new amiibo figures, Frye, Shiver, and Big Man, are also up for pre-order at $24.99 each on Amazon, all releasing alongside the game.
The shift toward a dedicated single-player focus is a notable move for the series. You'll want to lock in that pre-order discount before it disappears closer to launch.
AMD Ryzen 9 9900X at 25% off
On the hardware side, Amazon has the AMD Ryzen 9 9900X down to $373.81 from its $499 MSRP. The 12-core, 24-thread processor is a powerhouse for creative workloads like video editing and 3D rendering. The key here is knowing what you are buying it for: it handles productivity applications with ease, but its gaming performance at this price point is less competitive compared to alternatives. Still, 25% off a Zen 5 chip is a price drop worth paying attention to if you are building or upgrading a workstation.

Other deals worth a look this weekend
Beyond the headliners, there are a few other picks worth flagging:
- Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade (Nintendo Switch 2) is down to $29.99 at Walmart, a 25% cut. With Final Fantasy VII Rebirth set to hit Switch 2 in early June, catching up now makes sense.
- Super Monkey Ball Banana Rumble (Nintendo Switch) is a steep 70% off at $15 on Amazon. Over 200 stages and 300 customization items for $15 is hard to argue with.
- Sony WH-1000XM5 headphones are down to $248 at Amazon, a 38% discount on one of the best noise-canceling headsets available.
- Kill Bill: Vol. 1 on 4K UHD Blu-ray is $15.49, with a coupon bringing it even lower to around $11.61.
- Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War Part 3 Limited Edition Blu-ray is $40.50 at Amazon, well timed before the final cour premieres this July.
The Nintendo Switch 2 Super Mario Galaxy 1+2 Bundle is currently $499.99 at Amazon, saving $20 off the standard bundle price. The deal runs through May 9, so there is a window to act if you are still hunting for a Switch 2.
What most players miss in a deals roundup like this
The Dragon Quest VII Reimagined discount is the standout here, but the Splatoon Raiders pre-order discount is arguably more useful long-term since it locks in savings on a July release before stock and pricing settle. For anyone building a PC, the Ryzen 9 9900X deal is one of the better Zen 5 prices seen in recent months.
