In the midst of this week's Prime Day chaos, we've seen GTA 6 pre-orders arrive and fly off the shelves. For what is shaping up to be the biggest game of 2026, that's no surprise. But it's proving so popular that I'm seeing a notable increase in people jumping into the PS5 and Xbox Series X generation - specifically for GTA 6.

While ongoing price hikes are making consoles pricier than ever, there is one silver lining. Prime Day sales are underway - so whether you're looking to pick up some must-haves alongside your PS5 or Xbox Series X or are looking to treat yourself with sensible setup upgrades, now is the time to spend smart to get more for less.

Below, I've hand-picked the best budget options for everything you'll need to enjoy GTA 6 at its best. From headsets and screens to controllers and accessories, I've picked the best budget option in each category to create the perfect affordable gaming setup. Items have been picked based on our team's personal recommendations, their reviews, and my own experience, as well as how notable their Prime Day discounts are.
