Black Friday gaming deals 2024: The best sales from PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo and others

Black Friday is often a good time to restock on video games and gaming gear on the cheap, and this year is no exception. While the event itself is still a few days away, several retailers have already rolled out their official holiday sales. That means many of the season's better gaming deals are available right now. If you're looking to add a few games to your backlog, pick up a new console or upgrade your desktop with new accessories, we've rounded up our favorite Black Friday gaming deals below. We'll see more discounts in the days ahead, but the current sales include a truckload of games and accessories we like for their lowest prices to date. Both versions of the PlayStation 5 are 75 off as well, while the Xbox Series S is 50 less than usual. We've dug through reviews and used price history trackers to ensure each offer below is a genuine deal, and we'll continue to update this post if prices change and new deals pop up over the course of the week. PlayStation 5 (slim) for 424 at Amazon ( 76 off MSRP): This isn't the absolute biggest price drop to date for Sony's console, but larger discounts have been extremely uncommon over the past year. You have a few different purchasing options, too. If you're a Fortnite Person, you can grab a bundle that throws in skins and V-Bucks for that game at no extra cost. Walmart and a few others have a separate bundle that pairs the machine with the recent RPG Dragon Age: The Veilguard or one of EA's sports games for 450. Also available at Best Buy, Target, GameStop and PlayStation Direct, among others.
