Black Friday PlayStation 5 Deals

There will be PlayStation 5 consoles available on Black Friday, but you should expect to see them available as bundle deals, where you get a game along with your purchase. Many will be discounted in such a way that it's nearly like getting a game for free as a bonus. If things go as they often have during the holidays, that means a variety of different titles will be up for grabs, including new and recently released games as well as bestsellers.

There probably won't be many individual console deals. If you prefer not to buy a bundle, you can consider purchasing a second-hand or refurbished system. However, finding a PS5 for less than the regular price is currently challenging. But you'll discover numerous deals on games, controllers, headsets and other accessories, and we'll be sharing them with you from Black Friday through Cyber Monday.

PlayStation 5 DualSense Wireless Controller, Walmart, 33% off

All console owners, from Nintendo Switch to PlayStation 5, need an extra controller sometimes. Maybe the main one is broken, or out of battery. It's always good to have a spare.

You can get that spare controller for less during Walmart's Black Friday sale. The versatile and ergonomic PS5 DualSense wireless controller is up for grabs for 33% off. That makes it just $49, which is a fantastic price, and one of the lowest we've seen.

This sale price is for four different colorways, so you can choose the one that best fits your personality. It's the best way to enjoy PS5 games, and it connects via Bluetooth for true wireless gaming.

With its hardy shell, haptic feedback, and lengthy battery life, it's an excellent choice for any PS5 gamer, especially as the official models aren't always on sale or discounted. Given that Xbox has made the move toward requiring official accessories, it's a good idea to stock up in case Sony decides the same.
