PlayStation Store Update 01-23-13

Anybody who calls themselves a PlayStation fan knows that today is the day for the weekly PlayStation Store update and there’s something for everybody. JRP fans will be happy to note Ni No Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch which is being released the same day as its retail counterpart. Best of all, Sony is giving you a bit of savings ($54.99) though a near 22GB download means you’ll have to wait a while before playing.

Best of all is saved for PlayStation Plus members who can enjoy discounts like:

LittleBigPlanet Karting – Regular $39.99, PS Plus $10.00
The Unfinished Swan – Regular $14.99, PS Plus $3.75

After the jump, the PlayStation Store Update 01-23-13 details await.
