Fancy some cerebral espionage from Psychonauts 2 during the Black Friday mania this year? The good news is that Amazon currently has the Xbox and PC game discounted by 50% in the build-up to this weekend's Black Friday, dropping its price from $60 all the way to $30. Keep in mind that Psychonauts 2 is also available to play for Xbox Game Pass subscribers, and three-month Ultimate subscriptions are discounted to $25 right now.

One of Microsoft's best exclusives, the sequel to Double Fine's cult classic Psychonauts is a charming adventure with some of the most imaginative scenery ever seen in a video game. In our review, we praised the game's impressive character writing, its endearing approach to serious topics of mental conditions, and its joyful gameplay, eventually rewarding it with a score of 9/10.

"It's an emotional, hilarious, and, at times, devastating story, but a story about forgiveness and second chances," critic Kurt Indovina said in his Psychonauts 2 review. "It's an astonishing achievement in nearly every regard and the quintessential display of Double Fine's mastery in story, gameplay, and distinct direction, making it the studio's best game to date."

If you'd prefer a different type of game to save some cash on, there's plenty of other bargains to take notice of. Ubisoft's new extreme sports sandbox Rider's Republic is down to $25, The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is now available at its best price ever, and there's no shortage of games which you can grab for under $20 right now.
