For those curious what Target is making available for the sale, many if not most of 2018 and 2019’s biggest releases are included. And if what’s currently available isn’t attractive, Target’s also including pre-orders for certain upcoming game launches as well. So whether it’s 2018 titles like Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 or Spider-Man, or 2019 games such as Kingdom Hearts 3 or Resident Evil 2, or even pre-orders for Anthem, Metro Exodus, Crackdown 3, or Far Cry: New Dawn, the Target Buy 2 Get 1 Free Sale has it. There are even pre-orders for Days Gone, Mortal Kombat 11, Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice and Devil May Cry 5 are available.
Pre-orderers beware, though, as the sale doesn’t feature release day delivery, nor does it offer in-store pick-up. Anyone hoping to play one of these new games on launch day might want to look elsewhere. Prospective Anthem players especially could lose out on over week’s worth of progress waiting for their copy to arrive in the mail.
Video games aren’t all that Target is offering as part of its Buy 2 Get 1 Free Sale. A range of movies, board games, books, and more are featured in the sale – and can be mixed and matched, too. Picking up a copy of Black Panther, the Fortnite Edition of Monopoly, and Michelle Obama’s Becoming in one transaction has never been more affordable.
To be fair, most of Target’s prices aren’t going to be comparatively strong to start, which is always the tricky part of the company’s sales. Everything is at its full retail price, so the Buy 2 Get 1 Free Sale doesn’t end up offering as big of a discount overall as it may seem. The best way to take advantage of it is to pick up products that one would just end up paying full retail price for elsewhere. Everything else, including older games, may best be bought at a different retailer that’s already cut their price by a decent margin. In other words, make sure to do some price comparisons before buying.
The Target Buy 2 Get 1 Free Sale is currently live on Target’s official website and will be available through February 16.
