This story is part of Gift Guide, our year-round collection of the best gift ideas.
Getting one’s hands on a PS5 has been something of a challenge, especially due to the chip shortage and shipping delays across the globe. Gamers and holiday shoppers looking to snag the Sony PlayStation 5 console are hoping they will have some luck during the big?Black Friday?sales this week. ?
A few PS5 stock drops have come and gone, including?Walmart’s Black Friday event, which kicked off Nov. 22. The consoles, which were featured in the retailer’s Black Friday sneak peek ad, were availlable for sale online only, and exclusively to?Walmart Plus subscribers?for several hours, during which time the stock ran out. If you missed out this time, keep an eye on our PS5 restock updates?for all the latest news on availability, and read our handy guide on how to increase your chances of securing a console during the next stock drop.?
It goes without saying, but don’t expect any deals or price cuts on PS5 consoles. The “deal” on a PS5 is is actually getting one at its retail price of $399 (digital version) or $499 (Blu-ray version), without paying markups or store membership fees. On the other hand, many accessories and games are being discounted, which we’ll highlight here.?
Walmart Black Friday PS5 Deals starting Nov. 22
Walmart’s PS5 deals for Black Friday are live now. Unfortunately, the restock of the highly popular console promised in?the circular?has already come and gone. We don’t know if Walmart will be restocking again any time soon, but we will keep you posted. The sale also includes deep discounts on games and accessories, and those will likely be easier to obtain.?
Here are the best deals we’ve spotted from various retailers that are live right now.?
Bethesda
Deathloop: $30
Easily one of the best games of 2021 and arguably the best reason to own a PS5, Deathloop?is incredible. Getting it for half price here is an absolutely steal.
$60 at Target
$25 at Best Buy
$25 at Amazon
Square Enix
Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy: $30
In a great shock to everyone, the new Guardians of the Galaxy video game isn’t just good — it’s really good.
With solid writing and well-balanced mechanics, this game doesn’t feature the MCU Guardians you know and (possibly) love, but in some ways their replacements are an improvement. This is a must-play game.

$30 at Walmart
$30 at Best Buy
Naughty Dog
The Last of Us Part II: $20
One of the best games ever released on any PlayStation console, The Last of Us Part II is gruelling, but is a real showcase for what video games are capable of.
$20 at Target
EA
It Takes Two: $20
It Takes Two is a fantastic co-op game about two parents, shrunk down to doll size, trying to get back to their daughter. It’s heart warming, charming and 100% laugh-out-loud hilarious. One of the best games of the year.
$20 at Target
Insomniac
Ratchet & Clank: A Rift Apart: $50
A world-class video game and a perfect showcase for the PS5 hardware. This is still pretty pricey, but it’s cheaper than retail. You absolutely need to pick this one up.
