Cyber Monday brings one of the year’s biggest waves of gaming discounts. Highlights include PlayStation 5 consoles around $100 off, the Steam Deck (256GB) dropping to ~$319, major price cuts on popular games, and steep discounts on controllers, keyboards, mice and headsets.

Inventory moves fast on big-ticket items, so if you see the console or accessory you want at a good price, consider grabbing it quickly. Below we roundup the most notable deals and buying tips so you know where to look and what to prioritize.

Top console & handheld deals

• PlayStation 5 — Standard ~ $449, Digital Edition ~ $399, PS5 Pro ~ $649. Bundles with games or cosmetic variants often appear for a few dollars more.
• Steam Deck (256GB) — ~$319 (all‑time/seasonal low) — solid value for portable PC gaming; higher‑end OLED models aren’t widely discounted.
• Nintendo Switch 2 — Limited straight discounts; best value often comes from game bundles (e.g., Mario Kart World bundle for ~$499).
• Gaming handhelds — Lenovo Legion Go S and Retroid models have notable discounts if you want higher power or retro emulation options.

VR & accessories

• Meta Quest 3S (128GB) — ~$250 with credit in some retailers — a top pick for budget VR.
• PSVR2 + Horizon bundle — ~$299 — hardware is excellent though game catalog is smaller.
• Controllers, charging docks, and specialty controllers (e.g., Access Controller, DualSense Edge) are heavily discounted — great time to pick up spares or upgrades.

Standout game deals

• Big AAA discounts: Final Fantasy XVI ~$15, God of War Ragnarök ~$20, Elden Ring ~$15–$20, Death Stranding 2 ~$50 — many titles at all‑time lows.
• PC picks: Cyberpunk 2077 Ultimate, Returnal (PC), and indie favorites are widely discounted across Steam, PlayStation Store and major retailers.
• Bundle and subscription deals (PlayStation Plus, Xbox Game Pass promotions) reduce the cost to try larger libraries.

Peripherals & PC gear

• Keyboards: deals on Lemokey, ASUS ROG, NuPhy and more — discounts hit both premium and budget models.
• Mice: Razer Viper V3 Pro, DeathAdder V3 HyperSpeed, Pulsar models and Corsair Scimitar see strong price drops.
• Headsets: bargains on Turtle Beach, HyperX, Astro and Logitech — wireless and wired options across price ranges.
• Storage: microSD Express cards (256GB/512GB/1TB) for Switch 2 at new lows — important if you own the new console.

Buying tips

• Check stock often — consoles and hot bundles can go out of stock and restock during the day.
• Compare retailers (Amazon, Best Buy, Walmart, PlayStation Store, Steam) and watch for bundles that add value (games, credits, accessories).
• Watch for auto‑renewal on subscriptions and set reminders if you only want an intro price or short term pass.
• Use price trackers (Keepa, CamelCamelCamel) to confirm whether a listed price is genuinely a low or a typical discount.
