NOTE: This deal has Expired. Replaced with January Sale.
If you are coming here for Metro Redux, keep scrolling. It is not yet expired as it is a part of January Sale as well.
The last of deal of 12 Deals of Christmas is here, PSN UK announced Deal #12 go live and replaced Deal #11 that was live until yesterday. As a closing deal Freedom Wars for Vita is discounted to £10.79 (US$16.7) for Plus members or £11.99 (US$18.6) for non members. Considering past deals of Christmas, it is safe to say that the deal for Vita digital version is always the cheapest found online. But how about physical version?
Vita Freedom Wars
On sale for €14.99/AU$22.95/£11.99 (US$18.6)
£10.79 (US$16.7) for Plus members
Minimal price differences between currencies.
HK PSN has the game full priced at $27.1, and US PSN at $29.99. So this deal is indeed the cheapest across PSN. However! Amazon US has the physical version starting at $15, while UK Amazon is overpriced at £21.28. So if you can get the game at $15 new from Amazon or any other retailers, it is better to prefer that way. While this deal is nice, it seems it still not for everybody.
If somehow you'd still want to purchase this game digitally from UK PSN, please note that unlike on PS4 and PS3, switching between PSN region on PS Vita system requires factory reset of your Vita console and separate Vita Memory Card. Kotaku has written a detailed tutorial on how to change PSN region on PS Vita. If you think this is too much hassle, perhaps it is better to wait until the game is getting discount in your region.

Don't buy this from Australian PSN.
We suggest you to seriously consider Amazon UK since they has the bluray for Far Cry 4 Standard Edition at £43 PS4 and £25 PS3, and even Amazon US at $49 PS4 and $47 PS3. And while we didn't check the Gold Edition or the Season Pass, the Standard Edition in US PSN full priced the game at $60 for both PS4 and PS3. Which is the around the same with the price after cut above for PS4, quite a shame. Deal for the other edition should have not much difference.
The games mentioned below is the compensation for the absence of Far Cry 4 offer in Bahrain, Kuwait, Lebanon, Oman, Qatar, Saudi, UAE and supposed to be only for those region, but when I did the search, it seems the prices is also being offered for UK PSN members as well. These are arguably better deal than Far Cry 4 but I will leave the judgment to you.
PS4 Metro Redux

PS4 Metro 2033 Redux

PS4 Metro: Last Light Redux
On sale for €12.49/AU$18.95/£9.79 (US$15.2)
Price in Euro equals to US$15.3, and Aussie Dollar to US$15.4
Also cheaper than $25 on US PSN and $28 on HK PSN
PS3 Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja STORM Revolution

Price in Euro equals to US$36.5, and Aussie Dollar to US$32.5
Currently $50 on both US and HK PSN.
Amazon UK has Metro Redux for exact same price at GBP 19 while US is overpriced at $40. You also may consider the bluray from UK Amazon instead. Lastly for Naruto, Amazon UK has the bluray for GBP42, and Amazon US at $50. So the deal for Digital version of Naruto on UK PSN is a lot better than the others.
