With tax season upon us, many gamers may be looking forward to spending their hard-earned money on some new games, consoles, electronics, or more, and the American gaming retail chain GameStop has gamers covered with its Tax Refun 2019 sale. This includes savings up to $45 on some games, $100 on some consoles, and a mixed bag of deals concerning everything else. The Tax Refun 2019 sale kickstarts on February 24, and will run through March 5.
As far as actual video games are concerned, Assassin's Creed Odyssey, Destiny 2: Forsaken (the GameStop bundle), Quake Champions Scalebearer Edition, and The Crew 2 are headlining the sale, priced at $19.99, $49.99, $39.99, and $14.99, respectively. Other deals include Dragon Quest 11 ($34.99), Call of Duty: World War 2 Gold Edition ($29.99), Darksiders 3 ($39.99), Call of Duty Black Ops 4 ($39.99), The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Complete Edition ($19.99), and Red Dead Redemption 2 Ultimate Edition ($69.99). Here's the flyer showcasing the biggest titles.
Console deals include select Xbox One bundles, with all Xbox One X Fallout 76 bundles discounted by $100. All Xbox One S bundles are discounted by $50, with players able to pick up one of the following games as part of the bundle: Fortnite (with special in-game content), NBA 2K19, Sea of Thieves, PUBG, and more. Lastly, those looking to pick up a Nintendo Switch can do so at $299.99 with a $35 Nintendo eShop Card at GameStop.
GameStop is also advertising deals on Gunnar Gaming Glasses, racing wheels, retro memorabilia, and micro players for classics such as Pac-Man, Galaga, and Dig Dug. Gaming backpacks, classic controllers, and small headsets are also advertised. Whether new or old, there appears to be a little something for everyone as part of this deal, so hopefully, this goes well for the gaming retail chain.
After all, 2018 holiday sales were down from 2017, which was likely due in part to the on-going rise of digital media. And considering the fact that the company is no longer looking to sell, it means there could be a lot of pressure on the company to perform well. So, only time will tell if this Tax Refun sale meets expectations or not.
