Throughout the year, gamers are treated to a plethora of fantastic bargains. It’s very uncommon for freshly launched games to be discounted by up to 20% in the first few months of release, or to get a one-time deal on a controller or headset. But Black Friday and Cyber Monday are something special – a chance to take advantage of the finest deals of the year all at once.
The holidays in 2021 will be unusual, as they were in 2020, due to the ongoing epidemic and chip scarcity. There are plenty of games and accessories available, but there are fewer consoles available for first-time purchasers to give, which means the chances of getting one are both uncommon and popular.
Some stores have even started collecting membership fees to increase your chances of acquiring a console, although even those aren’t guaranteed.
We’ve divided this collection by platform, so choose the one you’re looking for and enjoy the savings. For all of your shopping requirements, we also offer a comprehensive guide to the top Black Friday discounts.
