With less than a week to go until December 25, time is slowly but surely running out to buy any PS5 games as gifts. Fortunately, these last minute PS5 game deals from Best Buy can at least help, as plenty of them are available for same-day pickup or are ready to ship in time for the big day. But with savings this good, I won't tell anyone if you want to grab some to give yourself plenty to play over the festive period instead.

There is a lot of savings on recent 2025 releases, which is something I didn't expect we'd see again until the big sales event of the new year. Metal Gear Solid Delta Snake Eater is down to just $24.99 at Best Buy, a price so damn good it outdoes some of the best PS5 game deals I saw over Black Friday. That's not it for recent releases either, as you can also find Final Fantasy Tactics The Ivalice Chronicles at its lowest ever price of just $39.99 (Best Buy), a game so new that I barely had time to tell Santa (aka my fiance) all about it.

Metal Gear Solid Delta Snake Eater| $69.99$24.99 at Best BuySave $45 - UK: £57.90 at Amazon

Metal Gear Solid Delta Snake Eater | $69.99 $24.99 at Best Buy
Save $45 - This is undoubtedly my top pick of Best Buy's last minute PS5 game deals, as it sees a whopping $45 dropped off the Snake Eater remake. This marks not just a record-low for the recent remake of a PS2 classic, but it's also the cheapest I've spotted at any other US retailer - that's damn good!

UK: £57.90 at Amazon

Borderlands 4 | $69.99 $54.99 at Best Buy
Save $20 - Borderlands 4 has been cheaper in the past, dropping to $35.99 over Black Friday last month. However, this $15 off saving is still a banger of a deal for such a recent release. You can also save $21 off the Deluxe version if you'd prefer not ot miss out on all the various pre-order bonus in-game gubbins.

UK: £34.99 at Amazon

Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth| $49.99$29.99 at Best BuySave $20

Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth | $49.99 $29.99 at Best Buy
Save $20 - I haven't spotted Rebirth this low since over the Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales, which makes this one of the best holiday savings I've found so close to Christmas. If you played Remake and want to catch up, now a great time while its $20 off, just don't blame me if you finish it and are just as confused as you were at the start.

UK: £25.99 at Argos

Final Fantasy Tactics The Ivalice Chronicles | $49.99 $39.99 at Best Buy
Save $10 - If you're in a more classic Final Fantasy mood, you can also grab this enhanced remaster/remake of Final Fantasy Tactics The Ivalice Chronicles for its lowest ever price on PS5 at Best Buy. Unlike Rebirth, this game was only released a few months ago, which makes this saving a lot more alluring - especially if you prefer some old-school turn-based gameplay and grew up with the original.

UK: £36.97 at Currys

Digimon Story Time Stranger | $69.99 $49.99 at Best Buy
Save $20 - If it's recent releases you're after, Digimon Story Time Stranger launched on October 2 earlier this year and Best Buy has already dropped the PS5 game down to just $49.99. Any fans of Digimon fans will get a kick out of this RPG set int he same universe as Cyber Sleuth, especially now that there's $20 off its full $69.99 price.

Silent Hill f | $69.99 $49.99 at Best Buy
Save $20 - If you're after something a bit spookier, you can also grab Silent Hill f, which is down to its lowest ever price of $49.99. I grabbed this game at full price on day one, and it managed to make me fall back in love with the Silent Hill series, but I'll be super jealous if you grab it for $20 off today - especially as the US version comes with this stunning blue box art.

UK: £49.99 at Amazon

Life is Strange Double Exposure | $29.99 $19.99 at Best Buy
Save $10 - If you wanted to continue Max's story but didn't fancy dropping full price on Double Exposure, you'll be glad you waited. At Best Buy, you can now grab the latest game in the Life is Strange series for just $19.99, and see what Max has been up to as the new artist in resident Caledon University. Spoiler - it involves superpowers.

NBA 2K26 | $69.99 $29.99 at Best Buy
Save $40 - To make sure I'm not ignoring you sports fans, I've picked out this NBA 2k26 last mintue deal which sees a huge $40 off its full $69.99 price. The game has been dribbling down in price since launch, but this marks the lowest ever I've spotted for the PS5 version so far.

Dragon Quest 1 & 2 HD-2D Remake | $59.99 $49.99 at Best Buy
Save $10 - There seems to be no end to deals on 2025 releases at Best Buy right now, as you can also grab the Dragon Quest 1 & 2 Remake for $10 off today. Sure, it's not the biggest saving on this list, but for a collection of RPG classics whose remakes are barely a few months old, this is a last minute deal worth making a fuss about.

Before you go...

With less than a week to go until Christmas Day, you are cutting it quite close when it comes to buying any gifts for the PS5 fans in your life. I don't blame you, life gets in the way, and some of us have to wait until payday rears to get any shopping done. However, I do ask that you check that any of the games you grab above will arrive in time if you're planning on giving them away as gifts.

Best Buy states that a lot of the games I've picked out will arrive before the big day, but it's always worth double-checking, especially this close to Christmas.

Ever since I first held a NES controller in my hand I've been obsessed with gaming, and the hardware it runs on. I could hook up a NES and SNES to a telly, without instructions, before I could walk. Even now, nothing is more exciting then taking a console, or handheld, out the box for the first time and setting it up. This obsession transformed into a love of games and game music, which lead to my music degree and dream of becoming the Scottish Nobuo Uematsu. After sharing my love of games through music, I began to share my love through words on sites like TechRadar and iMore. This lead to becoming a Hardware staff writer for PCGamesN, and later the Senior Tech Writer for Dexerto, covering all things Steam Deck, PlayStation and Nintendo. With that experience, I was able to level up as Hardware Editor for GamesRadar+, where I'm still just as Nintendo, PlayStation and gaming tech obsessed as ever.
