Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade is down to $19.99 on PlayStation 5 this weekend, its lowest price in recent memory. If you've been sitting on the fence about starting the FF7 remake trilogy before Final Fantasy VII Rebirth and the upcoming Final Fantasy VII Revelation, this is the moment to jump in.
The PS5 version at $19.99 is a full 50% off its standard $39.99 price. The Nintendo Switch 2 edition sits at $29.99, a 25% discount on the same $39.99 MSRP. Both are available on Amazon right now. Intergrade is the definitive version of the first chapter in the remake series, covering Cloud and the party's escape from Midgar and including the INTERmission DLC that follows Yuffie Kisaragi.

Why this deal hits different right now
With Final Fantasy VII Revelation confirmed for next year, the window to catch up on the trilogy's first two entries is tightening. Intergrade sets the foundation for everything that follows in Rebirth, and picking it up at half price on PS5 makes the full trilogy run significantly more affordable.
Here's the thing: Intergrade holds up. The combat system, the Midgar atmosphere, and the character work between Cloud and the rest of AVALANCHE are still some of the best the JRPG genre has produced in the last several years. Getting that experience for $19.99 on PS5 is genuinely hard to argue with.
The rest of this weekend's notable deals
Beyond the FF7 discount, a few other deals are worth flagging:
- Dragon Quest I & II HD-2D Remake (Nintendo Switch): $39.99, down 33% from $59.99. The HD-2D treatment gives both classics a serious visual upgrade, and Dragon Quest II in particular received major story additions in this version.
- Nioh 3 (PS5): $49.99, a $20 discount. Released earlier this year, it expands into an open-world structure while keeping the series' signature Samurai and Ninja combat split intact.
- Silent Hill f (PS5, Amazon Day One Edition): $29.83, down 40% from $49.99. Written by Ryukushi07 with music from series composer Akira Yamaoka, this one stands out as the most distinct entry in the franchise in years. The Day One edition includes a two-sided poster and the Day One items pack.
- Elgato Wave:3 USB Microphone: $89.99, down from $149.99. A solid 40% off one of the more popular streaming microphones on the market right now.
The Criterion Collection sale is also live
Barnes & Noble's annual 50% off Criterion Collection sale is running this weekend, and it's one of the better times of year to expand a physical media collection. Highlights include The Princess Bride (4K UHD) at $24.99, Parasite (Blu-ray) at $19.99, No Country for Old Men at $24.99, and Wall-E at $24.99. These 4K transfers are typically supervised by the original directors, and Criterion editions come packed with supplemental material that standard releases skip entirely.
The FF7 Remake Intergrade deal is the headline here, but the combination of discounts across games, hardware, and physical media makes this a genuinely strong weekend for spending carefully. If you're new to the remake trilogy, the FF7 Rebirth beginner's guide is a solid resource to bookmark for when you're ready to move on from Intergrade to the second chapter.
