Top PlayStation Black Friday Deals
If you’re ready to invest in the PSVR2, now is the time to get the PlayStation VR 2 Horizon bundle for just $349 on Amazon (usually $599.99). 42% off is not too shabby for the cutting-edge PSVR2, in which we scored a 9/10 in our review, and is a compelling alternative to other affordable VR options like the Meta Quest.
PlayStation fans can snag discounts on various PS5 Black Friday bundles, PS5 Slim (on sale now at 17% off), the PS Plus subscription, PSVR 2, DualSense controllers (in multiple colors), and more from PlayStation’s Black Friday Sale. At the time this article was written, PS5 game bundles are still discounted as low as $374.99 (usually priced at $449.99 or higher) including the Fortnite Cobalt Star Bundle and NBA 2K Bundles (both digital and disc editions). Our advice is: When you see a popular bundle on sale and price-matched across retailers, be sure to get it while you can before the deal is gone or the bundle is out of stock!
Note, many of these PS5 game deals are also available in the UK at an equivalent price.
