Destruction of AllStars, the PlayStation 5 exclusive derby game, will soon sell for $ 20, developer Lucid Games announced today – a price drop of $ 50 compared to the original sticker price of the game of $ 70.
Last September, during a digital showcase, Sony announced that some PS5 games would cost $ 70, a significant increase from the long standard price point of $ 60. One of the games, Destruction of AllStars, was originally planned as a PS5 launch title, but was pushed back by three months in October. In February, it will be available for free to PS Plus members. Unlike most ‘free’ PS Plus games, it will last for two months, rather than one.
As soon as the two-month PS Plus period ends on April 6, Destruction of AllStars will sell for $ 20.
Destruction of AllStars there were some issues during the launch, especially the fact that party chat was turned on by default, with no options in the game to disable it. In addition, the voice chat is transmitted by the small speaker on the face of PS5 controllers. (I know. Crime.) An early hotfix addressed the issue, giving players the option to lock other players.

Purely on the basis of game earnings, Destruction of AllStars is quite nice in bursts, and feels a bit like other online games experiencing popularity, rising from moments of a zero-dollar sticker price. (See: Val guys, Rocket League.) It also provides microtransactions. I, for one, would not be surprised if, as Rocket League for this, the price of $ 20 will drop to $ 0 at some point in the future.
