The best Cyber Monday gaming deals in Australia for 2025, everything I expect to see this year

Cyber Monday gaming deals are back for another round of discounts this year, landing on December 1. That's right, it's another late holiday season and I'm getting you prepped for the second round of discounts right here.

Of course, we've got to get through Black Friday gaming deals first and, truth be told, a lot of the savings are going to be the same. Cyber Monday isn't exactly a whole second sale, it's an extension of the year's biggest discounts with a few new products added to the bargain bin.

That said, it's still a fantastic time to upgrade your setup, particularly if you slept through the weekend itself. Games, accessories, and sometimes consoles are regularly discounted during this event and many discounts stick around into the week after as well.

Check back next week for all the best Cyber Monday deals. In the meantime, Black Friday gaming deals are well in effect.

Cyber Monday gaming deals FAQ

Is Black Friday or Cyber Monday cheaper?

Both Black Friday and Cyber Monday are cheap, as retailers often run pretty much the same deals for both events. However, there's far more choice available on Black Friday - stock hasn't run out yet and retailers are attempting to compete in a much more cutthroat arena. The sale is far more popular, which means flash sales, bundle offers, and extra gift card temptations will be more widespread. That tends to make Black Friday the cheaper sale overall, even if many prices stay the same over Cyber Monday.

Are games discounted on Cyber Monday?

Video games themselves rule the roost on Cyber Monday. This is where you'll find the majority of download discounts and even some record low prices on physical copies as well. We've seen this time and time again, so while we don't recommend waiting past a record low price on a new release over Black Friday, you're likely going to have plenty to choose from if you do miss out on the main event.

Do consoles go on sale on Cyber Monday?

Consoles are a little trickier to predict than games. After all, this is the first year we're heading into Cyber Monday gaming deals with both the PS5 and Xbox Series X having already dropped to record low prices in the past. We would expect these consoles to go on sale for Black Friday, but we anticipate stock might not hold out for Cyber Monday.
