The best Black Friday PS5 deals are one of the best ways to grab a new Slim or PS5 Pro model and build up your games and accessory collection while saving some cash in the process. The PS5 is now five years old, so there's a ton of physical games, controllers, headsets, SSDs, and more that have regularly seen some hefty savings over the years, and the recent US price hikes have put a bigger importance than ever on grabbing PS5 goodies for a bargain.
Last year, the newly improved PS5 Pro launched just before the best Black Friday gaming deals started to drop. Surprisingly, this resulted in some UK retailers shaving off cash from the new Sony console, which is almost unheard of when it comes to fancy new tech. If that wasn't great enough, 2024 releases that had barely spent time on the shelves joined in on the savings action and dropped in price for the very first time - everything from Silent Hill 2 Remake to Final Fantasy VII Rebirth was the cheapest they had been so far.

When will the Black Friday PS5 deals start?
Black Friday officially begins on Friday, November 28, a day earlier than last year. You can also expect the best Black Friday PS5 deals to start popping up at the start of that week, and as early as October (if 2024 and 2023 are anything to go by). We recommend keeping an eye on offers from October onwards if you don't want to miss out on the biggest savings on PS5 console bundles, game, accessories and more.
Where will the best Black Friday PS5 deals be?
If you're looking to pick up a PS5 for the first time, or gave some new PS5 games and accessories during November 2025 then you'll likely find that all major tech retailers will be offering amazing discounts on whatever you need. If we had to guess though, we'd place our bet on the retailers below.
US Retailers:
Amazon: discounts on the latest PS5 games, controllers, headsets, and SSDS
BestBuy: savings on brand new PS5 games
Walmart: cash off PS5 Slim and other PS5 console bundles
UK Retailers:
Amazon: discounts on the best PS5 games, headsets and storage solutions
Currys: cash off the latest PS5 bundles
EE: savings on PS5 Pro bundles
Very: deals on the PS Portal, console bundles, PS5 games and accessories
What to expect from Black Friday PS5 deals in 2025
There's bound to be plenty of Black Friday PS5 deals in 2025, especially if last year was anything to go by. November 2024 was full of savings on brand-new games, controllers, headsets, PS5 SSDS, and of course - the PS5 itself, which hopefully is a sign of things to come. However, things are off to an awkward start this year, where the US is concerned. The PS5 price hikes mean that discounts on the console itself (including bundles) won't be as alluring. Sony popped an extra $50 on the Slim and Pro models, so if you're after the console itself, making sure the saving is at least $50 or greater is the way to go.
Before the price hikes announcement on August 20, I fully expected there to be plenty of savings on PS5 Slim consoles too, especially where bundles are concerned. During last year's sales, retailers like Walmart launched their own disc edition bundles, which even came with an extra DualSense controller, all for just $474.98. Since then, Sony has launched a brand-new Astro Bot PS5 Slim bundle for both the digital and disc editions of the console, which would be primed for some Black Friday savings. Unfortunately, any console savings this year are very likely to just take the PS5 close to its original price, deals I wouldn't have bothered to include during last year's Black Friday round-up.
Grabbing one of the best SSD deals is a great alternative if the console and bundle discounts turn out to be lackluster. Last year, SSDs from the biggest names in the business, from Samsung, Corsair, and Western Digital all saw their own fair share of savings. There weren't a ton of record lows, but grabbing 2TB worth of storage at a discount will still be cheaper than forking out for a PS5 Pro.
Of course, if we see a repeat of the kind of Black Friday savings we saw last year, expect to see record-low price drops on the latest games. A ton of 2024 releases, like Metaphor: ReFantazio, Dragon Ball Sparking Zero, and even Astro Bot saw their best savings so far, so some 2025 games are bound to follow suit. This year, Death Stranding 2: On The Beach, Ghost of Yotei, and Silent Hill f are primed to see big savings.
If you're happy with your PS5 and already have plenty to play, Black Friday 2025 won't be shy about savings on the best PS5 accessories. The jury is still out on whether we'll finally see the Sony DualSense controller see any major discounts, but there's plenty of third-party alternatives, like the Victrix Pro BFG or the Nacon Revolution 5 Pro to watch out for instead. Where headsets are concerned, I'd keep an eye on the SteelSeries Arctis Nova 5P, which dropped to under $100 last year. It's one of the best PS5 headsets you can pop on your head, and with SteelSeries being a regular fixture of Black Friday, I suspect it'll see similar savings this time around.
Of course, we'll also keep you stocked with info on all of this year's offers, so whether you're after Black Friday gaming headset deals or Black Friday gaming monitor deals, we've got you covered when the Black Friday PS5 deals roll around next month.
