This year's Amazon Prime Day PS5 deals are officially over, but that doesn't mean you can't still find a bargain here and there. We've been busy rounding up all the offers that are still live on everything from games to accessories, and you'll find these below.
Basically, don't hang about - all the best Prime Day PS5 deals that are still available are on a ticking clock. That means it's a good idea to hit checkout as soon as possible before these reductions go back to normal.
Hoping to find a console in the aftermath? Chances aren't so good, we're afraid. Actual PS5 stock during the Prime Day deals hasn't been great; it's mainly been an opportunity to get gear and games cheap. But if any stock appears, we'll get it on the list. For now, check what's going cheap and see if there's anything that catches your eye.

Will there be a PS5 restock on Amazon Prime Day?
While it's got a bit easier to find PS5 consoles now - I mean, we are about a year and a half on from launch - but if you are still chasing a console this summer there might well be some good news.
Amazon has hosted a few rounds of console restocks this year so far, but notably listed many for its Prime members only. Back in March, the retailer even went as far as promising its subscribers first dips on all console stock before the end of the month, though this was largely a fruitless affair. Still, it shows Amazon is watching other retailers bump up their membership numbers with the elusive consoles, and there's no better time to draw a headline than your own sale. That's why we take a stance of cautious optimism for the being a PS5 restock on Prime Day.
If you're on the hunt for a console before July, though, we'd recommend checking in with Amazon over the course of the next few months. There's literally never a bad time to check but you can still blink and miss stock.

Amazon Prime Day PS5 deals - FAQs
Is Prime Day free?
The short answer is 'yes, with an if', and the long answer is 'no, with a but'. As long as you have an Amazon account, you will get access to some of the best of Prime Day without having to pay a penny, or for a subscription, or shoulder any fees. However, if you want access to the best that Prime Day has to offer - including the best Prime Day PS5 deals - then paying for a Prime subscription (or going for a free trial could end up getting you access to the best deals and saving you even more money.
Do I need to be a Prime member to access Prime Day PS5 deals?
Yes. But also no. Simply put, the majority of the Prime Day PS5 deals will indeed be kept behind the Prime membership door, but there are always some deals - and more than ever each year - that will be available to all.
Not only that, but each year loads of other retailers get involved and offer their own Prime Day PS5 deals to compete. What's more, a bunch of the biggest retailers will (usually) price match Amazon as well, so it's always worth keeping an eye on all the other major retailers in June and July to get your eye in and keep abreast of all your possibilities.
However, predictably, it is very likely that the very best Prime Day PS5 deals will need you to have a Prime membership - why wouldn't Amazon keep most of its best offers behind their subscription, after all. Anyway, it's worth it, we think, and you'll get all the extra benefits like the TV, and free delivery, too. And even if you don't want it, you can always use the free trial just for this event!
What will Amazon Prime Day PS5 deals look like in 2022?
We always find that looking back at the previous year's deals is a good starting point of figuring out what might happen this year. However, what we already know is that some of the best accessories and games for the PS5 will definitely be discounted - they are staples of sales so we expect to see them cut again.
In terms of headsets, look out for some premium sets to shift downward entire price categories. If you've been eyeing up those that hold slightly higher price tags like the Arctis 7P+, Razer Kaira Pro for PlayStation, and Turtle Beach Stealth 700 Gen 2, then expect them to fall to the mid-range price category this year. The big sales events are perfect for these products, and even the most expensive items like the Astro A50 or Audeze Penrose often see big, big price cuts that take them down a notch or two.
After some extra storage for your PS5? Hard drives - both internal and external - will definitely be seeing some discounts in the Prime Day PS5 deals. This category of PS5 accessory almost always has deals running even when there isn't a sales event, but it can often be worth holding out for. The prices of internal PS5 SSDs like the Seagate FireCuda 530 and WD BLACK SN850 have slid down since their release dates, but we reckon we could see some lowest ever prices on these. And if an external drive is your target then definitely target an external SSD - not an HDD. While they once held much higher price tags, general downward trends in their prices combined with such sales means you can basically get the likes of the WD BLACK P50 or SanDisk Extreme Pro Portable for the price of an HDD. Madness.
Controllers will be a tough call. We don't (really) have any third-party pads to get excited about at all yet - let alone in a sales sense - so all eyes will be on the DualSense and its now larger array of colors. We could see a cut of a handful of dollars or pounds on the official pad - the deepest price cuts thus far seem to have been just $10 or so in the US so if you see anything more than that, grab it.
Likewise PS Plus is going to be hard to call. The new PS Plus tiers and system will roll out in June so who knows how Sony and retailers will play it? Cut the price to get more people on board? Or hold out because the change has only just happened? What we can say is that traditionally there have been solid discounts of 25% and up on PS Plus subscriptions so Prime Day PS5 deals are a great time to stock up and get more months in the bank. There used to be a '15 months for the price of 12' deal too, but we haven't seen that in a couple of years.
However, if you're after some of the best Prime Day PS5 deals, then we recommend getting prepared for some top PS5 games to get the price cut treatment. And some of the best PS4 games too, in all honesty. We can foresee the big titles on PS5 like Ratchet and Clank, Returnal, Spider-Man, Ghost of Tsushima, and Death Stranding (and more), all getting their prices cut. The latter two Director's Cuts have held their price points pretty well since their release so it might be a great time to get one. I have my eyes on Ghost's DC. Fingers crossed.
Predictions aside, we can see the kind of deals that should come up this year by looking back at last year. The same sort of patterns and levels of price cuts should come around again this year - even on newer stuff too.
Can I buy PS5s from Amazon?
Ah, if only this really was a simple 'yes'! While Amazon is always - due to its size, reach, and power - one of our favourite places to check for PS5 stock, the fact remains that it just doesn't have it any more than other retailers. So buying one from Amazon is pretty much just as difficult, and restocks are always fleeting. However, the Amazon Prime Day PS5 deals may just be the next best big opportunity to snag the console as we hope the retail giant is going to release some for Prime members during the event.
