First: this is a bizarre sale and clearly another case of Epic effectively subsidizing something that wouldn't be possible normally. As a really blatant example of what's crazy about it, I posted the announcement trailer for John Wick Hex last week. It got announced 8 days ago, there isn't even a vague release date, and they don't even know which consoles it's coming to yet. Even with that, it's on sale here now for $8 instead of $20 - 60% off, a week after announcement!
So because of that, here's some of the sales that seem most ridiculous due to being unusually large discounts, especially on games that aren't even out yet or just came out. Let me know if you spot more, all prices USD:
| Game | Sale Price | Normal Price | Discount |
|---|---|---|---|
| John Wick Hex | $7.99 | $19.99 | 60% |
| Satisfactory | $19.95 | $29.95 | 33% |
| Shakedown Hawaii | $9.99 | $19.99 | 50% |
| Slime Rancher | $4.99 | $19.99 | 75% |
| Subnautica Below Zero | $9.99 | $19.99 | 50% |
