Black Friday is here and Amazon is offering plenty of deals for the holiday shopping season, ranging from in-demand electronics to many beloved and critically praised video games. One of these deals is for the sequel to the cult classic JRPG, NEO: The World Ends With You. This price cut for NEO: The World Ends With You is one of the best, making the game a cool $19.99 as opposed to the usual retail price of $49.99. This is an outright bargain for gamers who are interested in the modern-day JRPG.

NEO: The World Ends With You is the sequel to the original sleeper hit JRPG from 2008, where players battle through an alternate plane of existence within Shibuya to survive the Reapers' Game. While it originally launched last year for consoles and an Epic Games Store PC release, NEO: TWEWY also got a surprise Steam release this year. It released to positive reviews, although it had ended up selling lower than expected according to higher ups at Square Enix.

This limited-time deal allows for fans to get the boxed versions game at a discounted price for either Nintendo Switch ofrPlayStation 4. At the time of this writing however, NEO: The World Ends With You appears to be currently sold out from this option, but there is a chance for the game to restocked. Stock of games being sold through the Amazon platform tend to fluctuate during the Black Friday sale, so those who are interested should check back later to see if availability changes later in the day.

The current future for NEO: TWEWY seems to be murky, with fans blaming the invisible marketing from Square Enix contributing to its current status. Its Steam port was also released to little fanfare aside from a single trailer at launch, which also had the unfortunate timing of releasing a few days before the multi-platform ports of Persona 5 Royal. That said, this deal should open the door for more players to jump in and see what makes this small series special.

NEO: The World Ends With You is available now on PC, PS4, and Switch.
