Good morning and welcome to the next round of annual sales! I'm here to guide you through all the biggest Cyber Monday deals for gamers over the next two days, and considering I've already been impressed by this year's Black Friday offers things are already looking strong. You'll find all my top picks from the discounts already live up above, but I'll also be bringing you all my tips and tricks for making the most of the sale, as well as any new discounts that drop, in this live coverage.
I've closely covered Cyber Monday deals for years, across both GamesRadar+ and our sister site TechRadar. I've been trained in spotting the best deals out there and ensuring both value for money and quality in my testing of gaming hardware across PS5, PC, Nintendo Switch, and Xbox.
What's Cyber Monday all about?
Cyber Monday is the second annual sale of November, running some of last week's biggest Black Friday offers as well as a selection of new savings. We generally see the same kinds of price drops here as we have over the last week, but it represents another opportunity to save on some of the year's biggest tech. Essentially, we're up for round two for anyone who missed out on previous offers.
Are Cyber Monday deals better than Black Friday?
The short answer is Cyber Monday deals don't tend to be better than Black Friday. Any stock that still remains on the shelves leftover from Black Friday is simply used for the same discounts on Cyber Monday, with a few odd additional discounts on unpopular colorways. Black Friday is generally a better time to shop for savings because there's more stock available - Cyber Monday is when we see far lower availability. However, I've noticed stock holding out particularly well in this year's discounts so far - which means this year's second sale is already looking better than ever.
Who is already on Cyber Monday mode?
Sunday is when we generally see retailers switching up from Black Friday to Cyber Monday, and while the deals are generally the same over the weekend it's worth noting who has changed their flags already. These stores could be a little quicker to drop new discounts today.
Retailers on Cyber Monday in the US
Interestingly enough I'm seeing retailers in the US go all in on Cyber Monday already, whereas the UK is still very much on that Black Friday hype.
One for the UK folks!
While the US is still waking up this fine Sunday morning, I thought I'd shout out this Nintendo Switch OLED bundle at Very. It's one of the few OLED bundles I've seen floating around the web this weekend, but it's the best value I've seen in a long time. You're getting the OLED console itself for just £299 - that's already a £10 discount on the £309.99 MSRP. However, on top of that there's Mario Kart 8 Deluxe included and three months of Nintendo Switch Online as well.
Nintendo Switch OLED | Mario Kart 8 Deluxe | 3 months Nintendo Switch Online | £299 at Very
A weird and wonderful tabletop adventure
Let's go old-school for a second - you can currently grab one of the latest Dungeons & Dragons sets, Planescape, for its lowest ever price for $50.99 at Amazon rather than almost $85. If you've been enjoying the adventures of Baldur's Gate 3, this takes things to the next level with a wonderfully weird cosmic quest.
Ally yourself with this ROG Ally deal
Want to take your games on the go? Best Buy has you covered with this $100 discount. The ROG Ally is currently $599.99 instead of $699.99, so it's one of the better Cyber Monday deals for gamers we've seen so far.
Like a mirage
Want to catch up with the Assassin order? You can get the latest installment in the series, Mirage, for a huge discount - $20 off. It's available for $39.99 at Best Buy rather than almost $60, and we certainly weren't expecting such a good price this soon after release.
Gotta catch [all the deals]
Do you have happy memories of the original Pokemon games? Did you collect all 151 in Red, Blue, and Yellow? Well, now you can revisit your favorite pocket monsters with this special 151 card pack. It's available for $95.99 at Amazon instead of nearly $120, and that's just a few cents off its lowest price.
"He's the leader of the bunch, you know him well..."
Well hello, what have we here? One of the most beloved Nintendo characters in Lego form, at their lowest price? Lovely stuff. You can get Lego Donkey Kong for just $47.99 at Amazon instead of $59.99, so if you're looking for a desk buddy or you need a gift for a loved-one, now's the time to strike.
The best offer we've seen (so far)
This is probably our favorite Cyber Monday deal for gamers so far. Knocking around $70 off the price of a PS5 Slim with Modern Warfare 3 (it's $499.99 at Best Buy rather than $570), it's an absolute bargain for those wanting to grab Sony's console for the first time, or anyone in need of an upgrade.
Our second favorite offer right now
Didn't think we'd leave you Xbox gamers out, did you? The Series X with the latest Diablo game is a massive $120 less than normal right now - it's $439 at Walmart instead of nearly $560. Lovely stuff - an excellent price for an excellent console.
Our favorite Switch deal so far
Along with PlayStation and Xbox, Nintendo Switch has been a big winner this Cyber Monday. You can currently get the OLED model (the Super Smash Bros. version, no less), Super Smash Bros. itself, and three months of Nintendo Switch online for just $349 at Walmart. That's absurdly good value.
Looking for a handheld PC that isn't chonky? We've got you!
Look, we love the Steam Deck as much as the next handheld nerd, but it's a big boi. So, if you'd rather scale things back in the name of a Switch-sized footprint, you're going to want to check out the Ayaneo Air PRO. It's down from $999.99 to $674.99 for Prime Members right now at Amazon, and it'll run a chunk of your Steam library while only taking up as much room as Nintendo's portable console.
That said, the Air Pro has more strings on its bow, as it's also immune to stick drift thanks to its hall effect joysticks, and wields 5.5-inch OLED screen. Ultimately, if it's raw portable performance you seek, you're still going to want to consider something like the Asus ROG Ally instead. However, if you've got a big backlog of classics and indies on your PC gaming list, consider this lighter, premium alternative!
Buy it if:
✅ You want premium performance
✅ You're looking for an OLED screen
Don't buy it if:
❌ You're looking for refined handheld software
❌ You'd need a bigger screen

Psst, this device could improve your Switch, and it's down for Cyber Monday!
Not to dunk on the mighty Nintendo Switch, but its visuals aren't the cleanest when spread across a huge TV at 1080p. Thankfully, doohickeys like the Marseille mClassic exist - a plug and play HDMI upscaler that promises to ramp things up to 1440p and spruce things up using anti-aliasing. It's currently down from $99.99 to $79.99 at Amazon, and it might distract you from waiting for the Nintendo Switch Pro for a little longer.
It's worth noting that the mClassic isn't just for Nintendo Switch, as if you're planning on visiting slightly older consoles like the Xbox 360 or PS3, it's going to deal with those jaggy edges found in some classics. Hell, it's even got a switch that caters to proper retro consoles from the 16 and 32-bit era, but I'd personally stick to 2D content with this device. In any case, it's going to save your eyes from the horrors of older visuals, and Cyber Monday will help make the process cheaper.
Buy it if:
✅ You want to improve Switch visuals
✅ You've still got older consoles to hand
Don't buy it if:
❌ You want to upscale 2D sprite games
❌ You typically play the Switch in handheld mode

This gaming PC offers up Nvidia RTX superpowers for under $1,000!
Finding a gaming rig for under $1,000 that can blitz through the latest games is harder than you'd think, especially if you want to max out settings. However, that's not to say such deals don't exist, as Best Buy has knocked $200 off its RTX 4060 CyberPowerPC for Cyber Monday, bringing it down to $899.99. It's also kitted out with a AMD Ryzen 5 7600 CPU, 16GB RAM, and a 2TB SSD, so you'll be able to tell demanding system requirements to go suck a lemon.
We've tested a bunch of the latest graphics cards, and while the RTX 4060 is entry-level, it's surprisingly capable at 1080p. Not only that, but it can also tap into Nvidia DLSS 3.5, the latest version of the GPU makers AI upscaling suite that can help you play at 1440p and even 4K depending on the game. Effectively, the limitations of physical hardware are somewhat blurred this days, and even an affordable PC like the one above could help you jump into the latest releases without any compromise.
Buy it if:
✅ You want to play the latest games at 1080p
✅ You'd like to dabble with higher resolutions
✅ You've got a chonky Steam library
Don't buy it if:
❌ You'd rather not use DLSS to fill in performance gaps
❌ You're itching to buy a proper 4K system
Price check: Walmart OOS | Newegg $1,249.99
One of our favorite Nintendo Switch controller add-ons is now even cheaper
Ever wished your Switch felt a bit more like a Steam Deck? Well, check this thing out! The CRKD Nitro Deck slides over Nintendo's handheld, swapping out Joycons for a fully fledged arsenal of buttons and sticks, and it's down to $49.99 thanks to a 17% Cyber Monday discount.
Not only does this big gamepad add some back buttons, it's got hall effect joysticks, meaning you won't have to worry about the horrors of stick drift down the road. There's even a limited edition version of the Nitro Deck that pays homage to the purple Nintendo GameCube, and it's also down from $89.99 to $69.99. Not everyone's going to opt for the latter just to dress their Switch up like a 2000s console, but if you're anything like me, that's exactly what you'll do.
Buy it if:
✅ You want to boost handheld comfort
✅ You're fed up of stick drift
✅ You wish your Switch felt like a Steam Deck
Don't buy it if:
❌ You prefer lighter handhelds
❌ You mostly play Switch using docked mode

Not played Final Fantasy 16 yet? Cyber Monday can help you become a RPG Kaiju for less!
It's been a busy year for big releases, so we totally get it if you haven't got round to Final Fantasy 16 yet. However, now that it's half price at Amazon, now is arguably the perfect time to do so. The Cyber Monday discount slashes the RPG down to just $35, and it's going to please anyone who loves a ridiculous role playing romp. We're talking big epic monster battles, more magic than you can shake a staff at, and sweet hair-dos, not to mention plenty of side quests to keep you busy over the holidays.
Buy it if:
✅ You love single player RPGs
✅ You prefer action over menu driven mechanics
✅ You normally enjoy Final Fantasy games
Don't buy it if:
❌You'd prefer old school mechanics
❌You haven't got the time for a big RPG
Price check: Best Buy $39.99 | Walmart $35
Where are all the Cyber Monday RTX 4080 deals?
We've been holding for RTX 4080 deals to emerge ever since Zotac's take on the graphics card dropped to $989.99 at Amazon last month. Sadly, we've yet to actually see any other models drop below $1,000 for either Black Friday or Cyber Monday, but there are a few versions out there with factory overclocks and custom coolers for less. So you're aware of what's what, here's a wee list of some of the current offers below, but perhaps we'll see some triple digit options before the seasonal sale is over:
MSI GeForce RTX 4080 + Alan Wake 2 | $1,279.99 $1,199.99 at Newegg
Zotac Gaming GeForce RTX 4080 Trinity OC | $1,299.99 $1,129.99 at Amazon
GIGABYTE GeForce RTX 4080 Gaming OC | $1,269.99 $1,189.99 at Best Buy
ASUS GeForce RTX 4080 ROG Strix | $1,469 $1,399 at B&H Photo
Of course, we'll be continually searching for RTX 4080 offers, and our Cyber Monday GPU deals hub has plenty of alternatives that'll potentially fit the bill!
And now for something completely different: The Azeron Cyborg
What is this strange-looking robot claw, I hear you ask? Simply put, it's a personalized gaming keypad that blurs the lines between a typical keyboard and a pro controller. It's for use on PC, and while you rest one hand in this funny-looking cradle, you use your other to control a mouse, as you would usually.
By creating custom profiles and performing simple twitches of your fingers, you control the games you play in a way that suits you. Since it's designed to compliment your hand's natural resting position, it's extremely comfortable for longer sessions.
If you've ever struggled to get to grips with using the WASD keys, this ingenious device is down to its lowest-ever price for Cyber Monday at Amazon, going for just $175.
Buy it if:
✅ You play on PC and have never felt comfortable on a typical keyboard
✅ You're converting from playing on a console
✅ You want a more comfortable way of playing PC games
Don't buy it if:
❌ You'd find creating custom profiles a faff
❌ You don't like thumbstick movement

PSA: The best Meta Quest 3 deal is at Newegg right now
This is a hold-over from Black Friday, so here's a friendly reminder that if you're shopping around for a new Meta Quest 3 this Cyber Monday, the best offer currently sits at Newegg.
You won't get a discount here, but you can still make the most of the Quest 3's launch bundle. That means if you opt for the 128GB SKU, you'll get a free code for Asgard's Wrath 2 when it launches in December. If you go for the 512GB model, you'll get Asgard's Wrath 2, plus a six-month membership for Meta Quest+, which will net you free games every month just like PlayStation Plus.
That's all true wherever you buy a Quest 3 just now, but Newegg is also offering a $15 Meta Quest Gift Card with the $499.99 headset, and a $25 Meta Quest gift card with any purchase of the larger $649.99 version.
It's hard to argue with free money!
Buy it if:
✅ You want a VR headset with mixed-reality features
✅ You don't already own a PS5 and play most games on there
✅ You want store credit to buy Meta Quest games
Don't buy it if:
❌ You'd get more use out of PSVR 2
❌ You aren't a fan of Meta's data mining
Price check: Meta $499.99 | Best Buy $499.99 | Amazon $499 | $499 at Walmart
Looking for a storage boost? Crucial is your best bet
We've been a bit disappointed with SSD deals over Black Friday. Although 1TB drives have typically come down to the $60 mark for big sales events during 2023, we've struggled to find any of our go-to recommendations down any lower than $80.
Luckily, if you're in the market for a 1TB storage boost for your PS5 or PC, this offer from Newegg has you covered. We're yet to test this T500 model, but if it's anything like Crucial's other NVMe SSDs, it's bound to give you excellent performance for the money. It comes with an integrated heatsink, so your installation on a PS5 will be nice and easy, too.
It can be yours for just $64.99 at Newegg right now. Seeing as it only launched earlier in the year, that's a pretty great deal.
Price check: Amazon $64.99 (backorder)
One for UK shoppers: The Victrix Pro BFG is only £138.99 for Cyber Monday
Here's something for UK shoppers! The Victrix Pro BFG is our top recommendation when it comes to PS5 controllers, especially if you play competitive online games. Currently down to £138.99 at Amazon, this is a chance to get one of the most affordable fully licensed PS5 gamepads for even less cash.
This has got to be one of the best Cyber Monday deals for gamers in the UK, especially seeing as this controller will work with PC and PS4 as well. The Victrix Pro BFG has torn through the competition this year thanks to its clever and versatile modular design. As you'll see from the image above, you can swap parts out and flip them around to your liking here. No matter the game you need a leg-up in, Victrix has the controller to beat right now.
Price check: Argos £159.99 | Smyths Toys £149.99
Need a new throne? Secretlab's Cyber Monday deals are now live
Are you in need of a new gaming chair? Or, are you finally ready to upgrade to a fancy sit/standing desk? If so, you might want to take a look at Secretlab's Cyber Monday sale that's currently running.
It's not often that Secretlab's premium and popular products get genuine discounts, but Black Friday and Cyber Monday are two of those rare times throughout the year.
Right now, you can get a Secretlab Titan Evo 2022 for $519 if you select the right preferences on the retail page. Admittedly, that's still a small fortune, but that's down from $549 for the Signature designs.
Get prepped for family fun this Christmas...
Let me paint a picture for you.
It's Christmas day; you and your family are waiting for dinner to cook, and they've tasked you with finding a whimsical game you can all play together. You remember back to 2007 - the infamous Christmas when Wii Sports tennis matches were the talk of the day, and your Mii bowled a record six straight strikes in the virtual bowling alley. Well, what if I told you that you and yours could relive those days thanks to a Nintendo Switch Sports deal at Walmart?
Down from $49.99 to just $30 at Walmart, Switch Sports could be yours for substantially cheaper thanks to this Cyber Monday deal for gamers. Just remember, if you only have a Switch Lite, this one sadly won't work for you.
Buy it if:
✅ You miss the days of Wii Sports
✅ You need a new multiplayer game
✅ You enjoy competitive minigames
Don't buy it if:
❌ You have a Switch Lite
Price Check: Best Buy: $39.99 | Amazon: OOS
Give your Xbox Series X/S storage a boost
Most Xbox gamers will know that the best way to increase their console's storage is to grab the Official Seagate Expansion Card. Not quite as many gamers know that the WD Black C50 is a slightly more affordable option that does exactly the same thing.
Thanks to a special Cyber Monday gaming deal, a 1TB WD Black C50 could be yours for only $124.99 - its cheapest ever price since launching earlier in the year. It's currently a bit cheaper than the 1TB Seagate option, which is going for $129.99 at Amazon.
Buy it if:
✅ You want to Quick Resume games from an expanded drive
✅ You want the best value for money in a 1TB deal
Don't buy it if:
❌ You want 2TB
❌ You don't mind a cheaper external drive
Price check: Best Buy $124.99 | Walmart $124.99
The Xbox Series S + 3 Months of Game Pass is only $249
In another price hold from Black Friday, the Xbox Series S starter bundle is still at a super-affordable price for Cyber Monday.
The Series S is one of the best ways to keep up to date with the latest games since it strikes the balance between power and price. Along with the console in this deal, you get 3 whole months' worth of Xbox Game Pass, meaning you can dip your toes in the water of hundreds of potential games.
All that, and you only pay $249 at Walmart just now, which is a whole $50 cheaper than you'd get this bundle for usually.
Buy it if:
✅ You want your first three months of Game Pass free
✅ You are happy with limited storage for the time being
Don't buy it if:
❌ You don't use Game Pass
Price check: Best Buy: $249.99 | Amazon OOS
Boy, you need to know about this deal...
It's hard to believe that it's already been over a year since God of War Ragnarok came out. Seldom do we get discounts on Sony's big first-party exclusive titles, especially in their first few years on the shelves, but Cyber Monday deals are lending a hand here.
If you want to continue the journey of Kratos and Atreus as they deal with the fallout of their first adventure in the nine realms, God of War Ragnarok is only $34.99 at Best Buy right now, some $35 cheaper than usual.
It might not have had the dramatic staying power of 2018's God of War, but Ragnarok is comfortably one of the best games in recent years, and well worth considering for this price.
Buy it if:
✅ You like action-adventure games
✅ You building up your first-party PS5 collection
Don't buy it if:
❌ You haven't played the first game yet
Price check: Amazon: $34.99 | Walmart: $40.00
A serious gaming PC under $1,400
This was one of the best gaming PC deals we spotted in the Black Friday aisles, and it's still on offer for Cyber Monday. Inside you'll get an Intel Core i513400F CPU, an RTX 4070 GPU, 32GB of DDR5 RAM, and a 1TB NVMe SSD. All that is housed by a lovely transparent case, and powered by a 750W PSU.
It's currently priced at $1,299.99 at Newegg, which gives you a saving of $222, and is about $300 cheaper than other RTX 4070 PC deals we're seeing for Cyber Monday. Seriously, if you want a powerful mid-range PC that can handle games at all three modern resolutions, this ought to be on your radar.
Buy it if:
✅ You want a great mid-range GPU
✅ You want 32GB of DDR5
Don't buy it if:
❌ You want a beefy processor
❌ You want more power at 4K

PSA: Walmart is dropping new Cyber Monday deals in under three hours for Plus members
Just as we saw over Black Friday, Walmart is offering its Plus members early access to its next round of offers. New Cyber Monday deals will be landing from 7pm ET, but subscribers can have at these discounts from 4pm instead. You'll find additional savings on headsets, TVs, gaming PCs, monitors, gaming laptops and more here (you can check out all the upcoming offers in the Deal Reveal sheet)
I can't believe these Nintendo Switch bundles are still in stock
I was covering Nintendo Switch deals over this holiday period two years ago - when the Mario Kart 8 bundle ran out of stock before even Black Friday rolled around. Imagine my surprise logging in this morning, then, when I realized that all three Nintendo Switch bundles are still live on the shelves for Cyber Monday. You'll find the Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch OLED, and Nintendo Switch Lite packaged in with free games and, in the case of the first two, three months of Nintendo Switch Online packaged in for their regular MSRPs right now. That's excellent value - the best we see all year.
Nintendo Switch OLED | Super Smash Bros. | 3 month Nintendo Switch Online membership | $349 at Walmart
Nintendo Switch | Mario Kart 8 Deluxe | 3 months Nintendo Switch Online | $366.98 $299 at Walmart
Nintendo Switch Lite | Animal Crossing: New Horizons | $259.98 $199 at Walmart
My favorite gaming laptop deal of the season is still in stock at Best Buy
I reviewed the Asus ROG Zephyrus G14 earlier in the year, and I haven't really stopped thinking about it since. I enjoyed my time with this compact 14-inch machine immensely, largely down to that excellent balance between power and portability. It remains one of my favorite gaming laptops on the market, so a record low price on an affordable configuration was always going to be one of my favorite discounts of the season. Not only is the G14 available for $400 off at Best Buy (now $1,199.99), but it's still in stock. Considering this is such a popular laptop - and I wouldn't have been surprised if it was run off the shelves soon after hitting this price - that's a weekend win.
Asus ROG Zephyrus G14 14-inch RTX 4060 gaming laptop | $1,599.99 $1,199.99 at Best Buy
I'm out for the evening now, but you'll find all of today's biggest offers in our guides to the best Cyber Monday Nintendo Switch deals and the latest Cyber Monday PS5 deals. Or, take a look at the biggest Cyber Monday gaming laptop deals for something PC flavored.
We're back for round two
Well hey, everyone! The deals are ramping back up again now that Cyber Monday is actually upon us, so we've returned with all the latest offers. Onward!
Get Legions Imperialis in the UK for less
Did you used to play the old-school Epic wargame? You know, the one where everything was really tiny? It's having a revival shortly via Legions Imperialis, and you can currently get it for less in the UK ahead of release. More specifically, it's now £96 at Wayland Games instead of £120.
The best Xbox deal we've seen so far
Let's take a look at one of the best offers we've seen so far: the Xbox Series X bundle with the latest Diablo for just $439 at Walmart. Considering how you get one of the best games of the year with the excellent 4K-capable console, that's a pretty stellar offer.
PSA: Best Buy's price match doesn't apply today
Best Buy usually runs a pretty robust price matching scheme with qualified retailers, but that's all out the window today. That's why it's so important to run your own price checks during Cyber Monday deals - stores are constantly working out out-price each other and you could save even more by shopping around.
Buying renewed tech this Cyber Monday? My top three tips for getting the best value
Renewed or refurbished tech can save you plenty of cash. After all, second hand devices can come with considerable discounts with the extra peace of mind of warranty guarantees from retailers. If you find the right product from the right seller renewed tech can be a godsend.
Cyber Monday is a busy affair, though, and it can sometimes be easy to forget to check what you're buying and who you're buying from - as well as making sure you're getting the best price possible. These are my top tips for getting the best value today.
Check new prices
This is a season of sales, so if you're shopping for renewed tech it's also worth making sure you know the current discounts on new devices. Over Black Friday we saw a renewed Nintendo Switch OLED for $5 more at Amazon than a new one cost at Walmart.
Check the seller not just the retailer
Walmart, Newegg and Amazon all run perfectly legit renewed schemes - but they also host third party sellers who don't. Where possible, limit your search to devices refurbished by the retailer you're buying from for the most peace of mind possible. These will often come with established procedures for refurbishment and quality checking.
Stick to who you know
Following on from the above, avoid sellers and retailers you're not comfortable or familiar with. If a deal looks too good to be true on a website that doesn't have your trust, it usually is.
When will Cyber Monday end?
Cyber Monday will officially come to a close at midnight and, unlike Black Friday, we may well see many of these deals off the table at that time. However, in recent years we've been seeing retailers bleeding their discounts out across the whole 'Cyber Week'. We'd recommend getting to checkout before the clock strikes, but if you do miss out there's always another chance to save.
PSA: Don't buy a PlayStation Portal from scalpers
It's been notoriously difficult to work out where to buy PlayStation Portal over the last week. The handheld remote player has been consistently out of stock across the US and UK since shortly after it launched. But you can bet scalpers are waiting out there to take advantage.
I've seen stock popping up at Walmart for a massive $399 - considering this is a $200 device that's extortionate. This is your friendly reminder not to buy an inflated price device - Sony has stated that more stock will land in early December and paying double for a PS5 accessory just isn't worth it.

PSA: Amazon has up to 20% off gift cards this Cyber Monday!
Not sure what to grab in today's Cyber Monday deals? Amazon has your back. Whether you're gifting or you just want to keep these savings going you'll find a range of store gift cards discounted right now. Some will require a promo code so be sure to fully check the store page but some of the heavy hitters are listed below.
Razer Gold $50 gift card | free $10 credit with code RAZERDIG
Apple $100 gift card | free $15 credit with code APPLET5USAP at Amazon
Chuck E Cheese's $50 gift card | $50 $39.50 with code T5CCH at Amazon
Fandango $50 gift card | $50 $39.50 with code T5FAN at Amazon
Instacart $100 gift card | $100 $85 with code T5INST at Amazon
Main Event | $50 $39.50 with code T5ME at Amazon
PSA: Shipping fees can catch you out
Every year I seem to find what looks like the perfect Cyber Monday deal for me, only to be caught out by mounting shipping fees at checkout. It's a tactic common in smaller sites, drop the price below larger retailers on the product page and make it back in higher delivery fees once you're through to checkout. You can end up paying well above what you would at a larger store this way - so to avoid wasting all that time I've gathered all the biggest stores' free shipping policies here.
Free shipping in the US:
Best Buy: free 2 day shipping on orders over $35
Walmart: free 2 day shipping on most orders over $35 sold by Walmart
Amazon: free 2 day shipping for Prime members, free 4-5 day shipping for non-members
GameStop: free 1-3 day shipping on orders over $79
Free shipping in the UK:
Amazon: free Priority Delivery for Prime members, free 3-5 day shipping for non-members
Currys: free next day delivery on certain items
Argos: free click and collect
Very: free click and collect on orders over £30
Best Buy has discounted ALL Logitech kit
This is a rare one. You don't see a retailer launching store-wide savings on a single brand too often, but Best Buy currently has a discount on every single Logitech device it carries. That's from streaming mics to handhelds, headsets to webcams. You can even save on Logitech brands that aren't labelled Logitech - like Astro, Ultimate Ears, and Blue. That's an incredible sale.
Deal Alert! This Nintendo Switch Lite bundle just dropped an extra $10 at Walmart
The Animal Crossing Nintendo Switch Lite bundle has been doing the rounds for some time now, but Walmart just upped the ante. It's already rare to see bundle offers on this cheaper console, but the retailer is throwing in a free copy of Animal Crossing New Horizons and cutting the price of the console by $10 today. That means you can get both for just $189 all in. Considering even Black Friday offers were still at $199 for this package that's a stunning discount.
Nintendo Switch Lite | Animal Crossing New Horizons | $199 $189 at Walmart
It's a Crash takeover!
I've been a long time Crash fan, since I first got my intro to gaming as a whole via a PS1 demo disk my Dad swore was the full game. I played that first level of Crash Bandicoot over and over, and my tiny baby brain didn't need anything else. These days I need the remasters, the new release, and all the merch that comes with both. I've rounded up all the latest sales on Crash kit here.
Crash Bandicoot controller holder | $24.99 $19.99 at Amazon
Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy (Switch) | $39.99 $22.99 at Best Buy
Crash Bandicoot 4 (Switch) | $39.99 $19.99 at Best Buy
Crash Bandicoot 4 (PS4) | $39.99 $10 at GameStop
Crash Bandicoot action figure | $29.99 $21.24 at Walmart
Coco action figure | $29.99 $21.24 at Walmart
Crash Team Rumble (PS5) | $39.99 $29.99 at Walmart
Buying a 4K projector this Cyber Monday? Watch out for fakes
You'll find plenty of Cyber Monday deals on projectors this year - it feels like the medium is ready to take off. However, if you're going all in on a UHD resolution I'd recommend double checking your specs before heading to checkout. I'm seeing a lot of '4K' projectors down at $300 or even $200 right now but there's a snag here. These aren't actually UHD models - they simply accept a 4K input. If you're after true 4K picture you'll be spending a little more. As a rule of thumb, true 4K projectors are sitting at between $600 and $2,000 while on sale this Cyber Monday - if you spot a deal too good to be true it likely is.
PSA: Amazon is still offering a $50 digital credit with its Meta Quest 2 deals
Not only has Amazon discounted the Meta Quest 2 down to $249 (was $299) in its Cyber Monday deals, but you can also use promo code META50 for a free $50 digital credit. That's like picking up the previous generation VR headset for just $199. I've never personally seen value quite like this before, so if you don't quite want to splash out on the newer model this is the best option going right now.
Meta Quest 2 | $50 Digital Credit | $299.99 $249 at Amazon
PSA: You can grab the Collectors Edition of the Tears of the Kingdom Complete Official Guide for just $26.85 at Amazon right now
After a hardback shelf-piece? This Legend of Zelda Tears of the Kingdom collector's edition guide is down to $26.85 at Amazon right now. That's a considerable saving on the $44.99 MSRP and just $1 away from a record low price.
In fact there are loads of Zelda books on sale right now
Make sure you've got a sturdy shelf for this one, there are plenty more hardbacks where that came from. You'll find a range of the Zelda lore books on sale at Amazon today, ranging from the full Encyclopedia (now $21.93, was $39.99) all the way through to the Arts & Artifacts guide. On average these are about $10 - $20 off right now, though the lore history only runs to Twilight Princess.
The Legend of Zelda Encyclopedia | $39.99 $21.93 at Amazon
Art & Artifacts | $39.99 $20.46 at Amazon
Hyrule Historia | $39.99 $25.49 at Amazon
Should you buy a new TV on Cyber Monday?
Everyone knows Black Friday is when TV deals pop off, but if you're late to the party can Cyber Monday still offer up excellent value? Of course it can - we're seeing plenty of discounts on some of the biggest displays in the business right now and there's still a wide range of screens in stock at discounted prices.
In fact, I would argue that November sales are the best time to upgrade your TV. New models are generally announced and released at the start of each year, which means that firstly, you can likely save on 2023 devices that have been on the shelves for a good few months and secondly, retailers are keen to push older screens from their warehouses to make room for upcoming stock.
That's why we often see such low prices on even high-end displays in these November sales.
It's a Zelda takeover!
While I'm seeing Tears of the Kingdom and Breath of the Wild jump up in price this Cyber Monday, there's still discounts out there and following that collector's edition saving I've scouted out the best prices on the games and merch you need to see right now.
Cadence of Hyrule: Crypt of the NecroDancer | $24.99 $10 at Walmart
The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild | $59.99 $41.99 at Walmart
The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening | $59.99 $39.99 at Walmart
The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom | $69.99 $59 at Walmart
Funlab Zelda styled Nintendo Switch case | $16.99 $12.99 at Walmart
Link Breath of the Wild 4-inch action figure | $23 $18.90 at Walmart
Which console bundles are still live this Cyber Monday?
Black Friday brought us loads of console bundles - more than we've seen in the last few years. Each major device saw free games and subscriptions included this year, and plenty are still available to grab. In fact, the Switch Lite is even cheaper this Cyber Monday than it was on Black Friday. You'll find all the latest stock below:
PS5 Slim + Marvel Spider-Man 2 | $559.99 $499 at Walmart
Xbox Series X + Diablo IV | $559.99 $439.99 at Walmart
Nintendo Switch Lite + Animal Crossing: New Horizons | $259.98 $189 at Walmart
Nintendo Switch OLED + Super Smash Bros. + 3 months Nintendo Switch Online | $349 at Walmart
Nintendo Switch + Mario Kart 8 Deluxe + 3 months Nintendo Switch Online | $366.98 $299 at Walmart
Should you buy the BackBone One this Cyber Monday?
The PlayStation Portal is still woefully out of stock across both the US and UK, but the BackBone One, a mobile controller for iPhone or Android, is still on sale for $69.99 (was $99.99) at Best Buy. If you're struggling to wait for more PS Portal news, this is where I'd recommend you go. No, the experience of Remote Play isn't going to be quite as good (the official model offers a larger screen and full DualSense compatibility) and you'll need a gaming phone capable of running the software. However, for $70 where the PS Portal is $200? That's an excellent jumping off point to test just how much you'll actually use the remote play feature.
BackBone One | $99.99 $69.99 at Best Buy
Why is Cyber Monday a thing?
Black Friday is a staple, but Cyber Monday feels a lot newer. The term itself started popping up from 2005 onwards, coined by the National Retail Federation in the US. That's about when online shopping was about to kick off, and with shoppers still primarily heading in-store for their November discounts retailers wanted to keep the good times going all the way through the weekend. Noticing that sales were still up on the Monday after Black Friday, 'Cyber Monday' was born - to both jump on continued activity throughout the weekend and encourage shoppers to do their deal hunting online (hence Cyber).
PSA: A lot of prices are jumping back up out there
Some of weekend's biggest discounts are starting to buckle. From Nintendo Switch games to monitors, headsets and more, I'm seeing numbers ticking up across the web. If you've found a deal you like it's well worth jumping in sooner rather than later.
The best Meta Quest 2 deal this Cyber Monday - is it still worth buying?
The Quest 2 has been supplanted by the new Quest 3, which has been soaking up all the limelight this Black Friday and Cyber Monday. The Quest 2 is keeping itself relevant though, especially with some of the low, low prices we're seeing it at.
For example, you can grab the Quest 2 for $50 cheaper just now and actually make that $50 saving back at Amazon. That's right, the Quest 2 is only $249 for Cyber Monday, and if you buy one from Amazon, you get $50 digital store credit if you use the following code:
"META50"
It's worth noting that this deal is also available on the larger 256GB SKU as well.
Should you buy it?
This is the golden question - with the Quest 3 now available, is it still worth buying a Quest 2? Well, it depends on what you're looking for in a headset. If you've never owned a VR device before, the Quest 2 is still more than viable for the price you'll pay for it. It still has some great features and visuals that won't require you to sustain your disbelief. Not only that, but it can be used with a PC, and has access to one of the largest VR gaming libraries out there.
So, yes, if you're on a budget, or you've never owned a VR headset, don't worry about this one being obsolete, because it certainly isn't.
If you're looking for the newest features, mixed reality, and something to rival PSVR2, then maybe look at one of the Quest 3 bundles you can get just now.
Amazon has just updated its Cyber Monday deals banner
The splash at the top of Amazon's deal page now reads 'Ending Soon'. Ominous, but a reminder that we're already seeing plenty of offers run off the shelves and officially these discounts will end at midnight. We expect to see some deals still hanging around this week (when retailers will likely switch to 'Cyber Week deals' messaging) - but nothing's guaranteed.
Exploding Kittens games are up to 50% off at Amazon
After some party game fun this holiday season? Exploding Kittens games are 50% off at Amazon right now, leaving us with some fantastic prices on family favorites. There's loads of titles included in this sale, but I'll leave you with some top picks below.
Exploding Kittens | $20 $9.99 at Amazon
Throw Throw Burrito | $24.99 $12.39 at Amazon
Really Loud Librarians | $19.99 $9.99 at Amazon
PSA: Keep an eye on Walmart's Flash Deals
Walmart has a section for weekly flash deals and we certainly wouldn't leave it out of your deal hunting roster. You'll find plenty of discounts on not just games and gaming tech but also furniture for your setup and even the odd mini-fridge.
This gaming headset never runs out of battery - and it's never been cheaper
When we test wireless gaming headsets and controllers, we usually have to go about the awkward task of trying to track battery life so we can compare it to the quoted time on a product's packaging. An awful lot of the time, those quoted hours are pretty generous, but when testing the Hyper X Cloud Alpha Wireless, the ridiculous 300-hour quote actually held true - or close enough.
Not only did this headset give us some excellent sound, but it just refused to run out of battery. If you're on the hunt for a new gaming headset and you're sick of your current one running out of battery life, the X Cloud Alpha Wireless has never been as cheap as it is now for Cyber Monday.
Down from $199.99 to just $119.99 at Amazon, it's currently at its lowest-ever price. There also appear to be some COD MWIII content tie-ins to sweeten the deal further.
Buy it if:
✅ You want massive battery life
✅ You want great sound quality
Don't buy it if:
❌ You can afford a newer model
Price check: Best Buy $169.99 | HP $119.99
This Xbox controller has an OLED display. Yes, you read that right.
The Asus ROG Raikiri Pro is a bizarre little controller for Xbox and PC. It's a fully licensed pro controller with four back buttons, and it has a tiny wee OLED display at the top of its face. That's just one of the flashy design choices that make this gamepad look like a futuristic cyberpunk version of the Core Wireless controller. Also present are some RGB lighting strips, and grips with dotted textures around the back.
As you might have guessed, it's on sale for Cyber Monday, and it just happens to be our favorite Xbox controller for smaller hands. Down from its launch price of $169.99, it's just $109.99 at Amazon just now. This is the first time we've seen it get discounted, so it's no real surprise that it's never been cheaper.
Buy it if:
✅ You want a pro controller with four back buttons
✅ You like its design
✅ You play on Xbox or PC
Don't buy it if:
❌ You have larger hands
❌ You care more about ergonomics than looks
Price check: B&H Video $109.99 | Best Buy $169.99
Call me boring but...
I couldn't have made it through this weekend without a super long USB-C cable. Over Black Friday I bought the Asus ROG Ally charging dock to play up on the big screen. Only problem is I can't quite be bothered to Bluetooth up a wireless controller every time I want to play. Enter the cable.
Without a 5m cable I'm perched on the edge of the coffee table staring up at the screen like a toddler. Now I can relax on the couch as Asus intended. You'll find a range of super long wires up at Amazon right now, but this 16ft-er will do the trick for $15.97 (was $29.99).
Amavasion Link Cable (16ft) | $29.99 $15.97 at Amazon
Phil's built their own PlayStation Portal
PS Portal is still out of stock everywhere, but our hardware editor (and resident handheld expert) has gone and built their own. It's not quite as technical as you're probably imagining, instead they've grabbed a Logitech G Cloud (available for $254.99 open box at Best Buy). Normally, installing the PlayStation Remote Play software means you're good to go, but there's a catch. You'll still have to use the on-screen controls.
Phil remapped those inputs to the physical buttons, though, and it worked. You're getting the same core functionality (as well as access to Xbox Game Pass streaming games built in) and best of all? It's in stock!
Deal Alert! Dell just dropped the 1TB Xbox Series S to $299.99
Finally a decent deal on the 1TB Xbox Series S. This newer release has been stuck at MSRP since it launched back in September and I've been watching out for discounts all weekend. Dell finally dropped that price hammer, though, cutting the $349.99 console down to $299.99 in its Cyber Monday deals. With other retailers either out of stock or at full price right now that's a fantastic offer.
Xbox Series S 1TB | $349.99 $299.99 at Dell
Buy it if:
✅ You want to play all your games digitally
✅ You want plenty of storage
✅ You don't want to spend Series X money
Don't buy it if:
❌ You'd rather put the cash towards full 4K gaming
Price Check: Walmart: $349 | Best Buy: $349.99
Walmart has just added a free $50 Quest Store gift card to its Meta Quest 2 deal
Earlier today I noticed that Amazon was still packing a $50 digital credit in with its discounted Meta Quest 2 deals. Well now Walmart's caught up. You'll find a free $50 Meta Quest store credit gift card available with the $249 headset (that's $50 down from the normal $299 MSRP). If you're looking to stock up on games, then, this is the bundle to choose right now.
Meta Quest 2 | $50 Meta Store gift card | $299.99 $249 at Walmart
This Pokemon Scarlet & Violet 151 Ultra Premium Collection is down to its lowest price ever at Amazon
We've seen the 151 Ultra Premium collection down at $110 in the past, we've seen it at $100. This is the first time we've seen it at $95.99, though. This kit includes one etched foil promo, six damage dice, two condition markers, a Mew flavored metallic coin, a deck box, an etched metal card, a playmat <breathe> 16 booster packs, one foil promo art card, and a TCG Live code. That's a hell of a package - all for a record low price.
Pokemon TCG Scarlet & Violet 151 Ultra Premium Collection | $119.99 $95.99 at Amazon
Wingspan is at its lowest price yet at Amazon
Wingspan is one of the absolute best board games on the market right now, and Amazon has it cheaper than we've seen in a long time. You're grabbing the $65 game for just $44.99 in this week's Cyber Monday deals. While January did take us down to $38 very briefly, that's the best price we've seen in a long time. But wait, there's more. If you're going all out on Cyber Monday board game deals you can combine this discount with two other board games and get one completely free. Amazon is also running a 3 for 2 offer across board games right now.
Wingspan | $65 $44.99 at Amazon
There's still time to save on your PS Plus subscription this Cyber Monday
Sony's official PS Plus deals are still running, which means there's still time to grab discounted plans today. However, you can save even more with these PlayStation Wallet Funds at Amazon. These gift cards are 10% off which means you can load up your wallet with free cash and double down on the savings.
Sony has dropped its Essential plan down to $59.99 for 12 months (was $79.99), Extra to $99.99 (was $134.99) and Premium to $119.99 (was $159.99).
$30 PlayStation Wallet Funds | $30 $27 at Amazon
$50 PlayStation Wallet Funds | $50 $45 at Walmart
$70 PlayStation Wallet Funds | $70 $63 at Amazon
$110 PlayStation Wallet Funds | $110 $99 at Amazon
This super cheap electric standing desk just got even cheaper
I'll admit, I've not had my hands on the ErGear standing desk, but I'm currently reviewing one from FlexiSpot and my eyes have been opened to the concept. The E7 Pro i'm typing this on will cost you well over $300, but Amazon has just dropped the price of this budget model down to $108.99 (was $159.99). That's a pretty stunning offer, especially with its solid review rating. We've previously only ever seen this model drop to $125 at Amazon, so this is a record low price. Just be sure to apply that $20 off coupon.
ErGear adjustable electric standing desk | $159.99 $108.99 at Amazon
PSA: This WD Black Xbox storage card is cheaper than Seagate's right now
The WD Black C50 finally stepped up to offer Seagate some competition this year, and it's currently $5 cheaper than the older card. You'll find the 1TB model on sale at Amazon for $124.98 right now - $25 lower than its $149.99 MSRP. For reference, Seagate's 1TB card is down to $129.99 at Best Buy, though it's worth noting we haven't seen that $219.99 MSRP for a long time.
WD Black C50 1TB storage card | $149.99 $124.98 at Amazon
These are the Steam Deck accessories we'd be looking out for this Cyber Monday
Whether you've just splashed out on an OLED device or you're looking to reinvigorate your Steam Deck setup, Cyber Monday has plenty of discounts on extra gadgets and accessories. From screen protectors to docking stations you'll find our top picks just below.
Benazcap Steam Deck screen protector (2 pack) | $9.99 $4.93 at Amazon
Deckmate | $54.99 $49 at Amazon
Baseus Blade 100W power bank | $129.99 $69.99 at Amazon
JSAUX M.2 Docking Station | $109.99 $79.99 at Amazon (with Prime)
Asus ROG Cetra True Wireless earbuds | $99.99 $79.99 at Amazon
Lego deals are jumping back up in price
If you've got some Cyber Monday Lego deals in your cart, I'd head to checkout sooner rather than later. We're seeing plenty of sets scaling back up the price ranks this afternoon, like this Lego Tallneck - just yesterday this was a $52.99 set, but it's already hopped back up to $73.99 today.
The Xbox mini-fridge is still on sale this Cyber Monday
Thought you missed your chance to get the Xbox mini fridge on sale last week? Think again. Walmart has the official accessory at $39.97 right now - $48 down from the original $88 MSRP. That's more than half off - excellent for anyone kitting out a full setup this holiday season.
Xbox Series X replica mini fridge | $88 $39.97 at Walmart
Upgrading your PC this Cyber Monday? Newegg can help with that
Newegg runs a GPU trade in scheme where users can send in their old cards for store credit. While older cards won't get you very far anyone looking to make the swap from an RTX 30-Series to an RTX 40-Series should certainly check the scheme out. I don't see anyone shipping an RTX 3090 Ti model off to Newegg any time soon, but if you've got an RTX 3060 you can save up to $197 on your next purchase.
Best Buy is the first retailer to run out of PS5 stock
This is a strange sentence to be typing in 2023, but Best Buy has run out of stock on the previous edition of the PS5 console. That means the only device you'll be able to buy from these blue and yellow shelves is the new Slim model, as the smaller design is set to take over from the original as soon as those units run out.
That means time is running out if you prefer the chunkier console. Walmart currently has the device by itself for $449 (or $499 with a copy of Spider-Man 2), as does Amazon. However, with Best Buy buckling these units won't be around forever.
It's an Animal Crossing takeover!
Animal Crossing fans are having a rough one. New Horizons hasn't been on sale throughout the entire weekend, so anyone looking to get their hands on a discounted copy of the game is going to be disappointed this Cyber Monday. However, you can still find plenty of merch and extra gadgets on the shelves right now. Here are our top picks:
Tom Nook mens beanie | $15.96 $9.99 at Amazon
5 pack women's Animal Crossing ankle socks | $10.99 $8.29 at Amazon
New Horizons Official Complete Guide | $54.99 $42.10 at Amazon
New Horizons Edition Monopoly | $27.99 $14.01 at Walmart
2024 Animal Crossing calendar | $17.99 $14.40 at Walmart
From one island to another, let's take a look at some Spider-Man deals!
Whether you've just picked up your first Spider-Man game (sorry, there aren't any Cyber Monday deals on the new release right now), or you're a long time fan, there are plenty of offers on all things Spidey right now. Both of the earlier games are on sale for just under $20 at Best Buy and there's plenty of merch up for grabs as well.

Marvel Epic Hero Series Miles Morales action figure | $10.99 $8.49 at Amazon
Funko Pop Marvel's Spiderman No Way Home | $19.95 $8.95 at Amazon
Spider-Man controller holder | $29.99 $21.99 at Amazon
It's Starfield time
Whether you love Starfield or you're buying for someone who does, the Xbox adventure has a solid selection of merch and accessories to choose from. Of course, you'll find a discount on the game itself if you don't have Game Pass (and a Game Pass deal if you don't have the game itself), but there's plenty more for this 2023 heavy hitter on the shelves right now.
Starfield | $69.99 $54.99 at Amazon
Women's Starfield baseball cap | $14.99 $7.99 at Amazon
3 months Game Pass Ultimate + free Starfield collectible | $44.99 at Best Buy
Xbox Wireless Controller Starfield Edition | $139.99 $129.95 at Amazon
Seagate 5TB Game Drive (Starfield Edition) | $169.99 $149.99 at Amazon
There's just hours left of Cyber Monday
And just over an hour if you're in the UK. While we do typically see some offers running through the Cyber week, there's no telling which discounts will stick around this year. If you've got your cart stocked, it's time to make sure you've got everything you need and head to checkout (especially if you're late-night shopping across the pond).
It's D&D time!
Whether you're a gifted DM or you're simply buying for one (or treating yourself to a little extra swag on the battlefield), you'll find plenty of D&D gifts up for sale in today's Cyber Monday deals.
D&D Mad Libs | $5.99 $4.99 at Amazon
Damoo D&D backpack | $99 $79.20 at Amazon
Arcknight flat plastic miniatures | $19.99 $15.99 at Amazon

Spellbook Cards: Magic Items | $29.99 $20.65 at Amazon
Assassin's Creed fans unite!
We're going all over the world for the next takeover. Assassin's Creed fans are well stocked with merch by now, but there are a few pieces taking discounts in today's Cyber Monday deals you'll want to be aware of. On top of discounts on the latest title Mirage, assassin's (and those buying for assassin's) will find savings on everything from cookbooks to dice games in this year's offers.
Assassin's Creed: Mirage (PS5) | $49.99 $39.99 at Best Buy

Retro fans can get in on this merch action as well! Between books and board games there are plenty of ways to support your nostalgia without splashing out big on a vintage system or arcade cabinet.
NES coasters | $14.99 $10 at Amazon
Pac-Man board game | $19.99 $15.18 at Amazon
Atari Flashback: Centipede game | $28.99 $19.98 at Walmart
Atari 50: The Anniversary Celebration (Switch) | $29.99 $19.99 at Amazon
The Game Console: A Photographic History | $39.99 $26.99 at Amazon
This is a great price on a starter prebuilt gaming PC from a trusted brand. Highly upgradeable and future proof.
Looking for a new gaming PC on a budget? There is absolutely no shame in shying away from the $3000 monstrosities you see all over the place, taunting you from afar. Instead, this Cyber Monday deal on an Acer Predator Orion 3000 gets you the foundation for a really solid mid-range gaming rig for just $799. The RTX 3050 GPU is undoubtedly its biggest weak point, but even that will let you play most new games at 1080p and low to medium settings. That said, the 13th-gen i5 processor will be more than enough to feed something like an RTX 4060, and then you'll really be living.
Acer Predator Orion 3000 / RTX 3060 / i5-13400F | $1199 $799 at Amazon
I will never recover from seeing this 4060 HP Victus laptop for $749 after just buying a 3060 laptop for, well, more than that.
It's a tale as old as time, and yet, its sting is no less painful. I just bought a 3060-equipped gaming laptop a few months ago, and while it's a great machine, it's not fun seeing basically the newer, better version pop up for literally hundreds less than I paid. And it's not like I got a bad deal! It just wasn't this good a deal. Point is, kids, take advantage of my suffering and snag this HP Victus laptop, packing an RTX 4060 GPU, 12th-gen i5 CPU, and 16 gigs of RAM for just $749, and when the next big sale arrives, maybe just don't look at the gaming laptop section. Trust me, it's not worth it.
HP Victus 15.6" FHD 144Hz Gaming Laptop / Intel i5-12500H / RTX 4060 / 16GB DDR4 | $1099 $749 at Walmart
These Cyber Monday gaming deals are too scary to be true. (But they are.)
The Jack-o'-lanterns have been replaced by candy cane lanes and plastic snowflakes, but it's all a cheerful veneer for these scary-good deals on horror games, perfect for the boys and ghouls in your life that never stop celebrating Halloween.
Dredge - Deluxe Edition (Nintendo Switch) | $39.99 $29.99 on Amazon
The Quarry (Xbox One) | $19.99 $14.99 on Amazon
The Texas Chain Saw Massacre (PS5) | $39.99 $29.99 on Amazon

The Last of Us Part 1 (PS5) | $69.99 $39.99 on Best Buy
