Fanatical leads with a 15% off discount code for full-price games, available to first time customers. This is your straightforward saving on new releases at regular price. Beyond that, the site runs dozens of time-limited sales on individual titles, ranging from modest discounts to steep clearance prices, plus a spending threshold offer and a newsletter signup. The right choice depends on which games are in your basket and whether you are a new customer.
First order with full-price games: The 15% off code at the top of the page is the main offer for shoppers buying their first games at Fanatical. Apply it to any full-price title and you cut the cost by 15%. On a $30 game, for example, the code brings it down to $25.50, saving you $4.50. Stack several full-price games in your basket and the saving grows: a $60 order of full-price titles becomes $51 with the code, a $9 discount. Keep in mind the code does not work on already reduced games, bundles, Star Deals or Pick and Mix selections, and it is first order only.
Games already on sale: If the titles you want are already marked down as individual sale items, skip the 15% code and compare totals instead. Games on clearance often drop by more than 15% alone. For instance, Tekken 7 Originals Edition sits at 87% off, and Frostpunk: Game of the Year Edition at 93% off, savings the blanket code cannot match. Work out your cart total with the code applied, then total it without the code using just the sale prices, and take whichever costs less at checkout. Fanatical typically allows only one discount per order, so the higher saving wins.
Large baskets over $15: If your order crosses $15, the free game offer kicks in on top of your purchases. You get a free title when you spend over $15, which is a solid bonus if you add up to that threshold. This applies alongside any sale prices marked on individual games, though you cannot combine it with the 15% code.
Preorders: Star Wars Galactic Racer offers 7% off if you preorder before 4 October 2026, plus a bonus repulsorcraft livery and player banner. Whether that beats another offer in your basket depends on the full preorder price, which you would need to check at checkout.
Newsletter for future buys: New customers can sign up to Fanatical's newsletter for early notice of promotions and special offers coming down the line. This is useful if you plan to shop again and want to catch limited time deals before they end.
Pull together your basket and check which approach saves the most. If you are a first time customer buying only full-price games, the code is your answer. If your games are already discounted or you have a mix of sale and full-price items, calculate both routes and go with the lower final total. If you cross $15, factor in the free game bonus alongside your other savings.
