It’s Halloween week, and Sony is celebrating the occasion by bringing great deals to some of the best PS4 and PS5 games on the PlayStation Store. That includes this PS4 port of what some would argue is the best and most influential PS2 game of all time.

Resident Evil 4 is 75% off on the PS Store

Developed and published by Capcom, the original Resident Evil 4 is 75% off on the PS Store. That brings its typical price of $19.99 down to just $4.99. PS4 and PS5 players who want to take advantage of this deal will have to act fast. The offer ends on November 6 at 2:59 a.m. ET.

“In Resident Evil 4, special agent Leon S. Kennedy is sent on a mission to rescue the U.S. President’s daughter who has been kidnapped,” reads its description. “Finding his way to a rural village in Europe, he faces new threats that are a departure from the traditional lumbering zombie enemies of the earlier installments in the series. Leon battles horrific new creatures infested by a new threat called Las Plagas and faces off against an aggressive group of enemies, including mind-controlled villagers that are tied to Los Illuminados, the mysterious cult which is behind the abduction.”

When the original Resident Evil 4 was released in 2005, it was universally acclaimed. According to the review aggregate site Metacritic, it received an average review score of 96 across 82 critic reviews. It is the 20th-highest-rated video game of all time, with the same average score of games like BioShock, Baldur’s Gate 3, and Tekken 3. It is often considered one of the most influential games of all time, as it helped popularize the third-person over-the-shoulder perspective that is so prominently featured in third-person shooters.

This particular version of Resident Evil 4 is the PS4 port of the game, released in 2016. The main features are full 1080p resolution and increased frame rate.
