With summer in full swing, Sony and Microsoft have to fight tooth-and-nail to get gamers from leaving behind those moneymaking game machines and going outside to enjoy the weather. Hence, the companies are enticing gamers with a bevy of sales. While Xbox has rolled out its Ultimate Game Sale, with titles such as Dragon Age: Inquisition and Far Cry 4 receiving deep discounts, PlayStation has stuck with the “slow and steady” approach, dropping occasional sales, but nothing monumental.

But with the highly anticipated fighting game tournament EVO 2015 set to kick off this weekend, Sony has decided to step up to the proverbial plate and offer steep discounts on just about every fighting game title available through the PlayStation Network.

For fans worried that this sale will just include paltry dollars shaved off of big name titles like Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat X, think again. Whether it’s the girl-centric fighter Arcana Heart 3 or the over-the-top JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: All Star Battle, titles big and small are getting steep discounts, with price tags as low as $1.50.

For fans that just can’t get enough chop sockey, PlayStation is expanding the fighting-centric sale to its movie section, where titles such as Enter the Dragon and The Raid: Redemption can be picked up on the cheap.

While the sale celebrates EVO 2015, the fighting game tournament hasn't had great luck with the PlayStation lately, with the PS4 version of Ultra Street Fighter IV getting swapped for the Xbox 360 version due to numerous bugs. Regardless, with Street Fighter V right around the corner, now has never been a better time to dust off the old fightstick and practice the quarter circle forward. The sale is set to end on 7/20, so these deals won't last forever.
