Whether you're looking for a PS5 Pro console, a bundle packed with games or a discount on essential accessories like the DualSense controller, Black Friday is your chance to find the best deals on all things PlayStation.
From now until the sale officially kicks off in November, I’ll be monitoring the likes of Amazon, Argos, Very and Currys to bring you the best early Black Friday PS5 discounts as they appear. While the sale is a while away, expect to see savings on the console itself – there’s already £40 off the PS5 at Very – as well as deals on some of the best PS5 games we’ve reviewed at IndyBest.
When is Black Friday 2025?
The main Black Friday event takes place on Friday 28 November – the day after Thanksgiving in the US – but discounts tend to start popping up well before then and will continue through the weekend into Cyber Monday on 1 December, and beyond. Be sure to check back in with this page as the sale approaches, as we’ll be updating it with the latest and greatest deals as soon as they go live.
What PS5 deals can you expect on Black Friday?
Last year’s Black Friday sale saw official price cuts on the PS5 and PS5 Pro consoles themselves, with Sony knocking around £70 off the disc edition. With prices already low we expect to see similar, if not better, discounts on the console this year from retailers such as Amazon, Currys, and Argos.
Where we expect the real value to be is in the bundles. Retailers will be competing for shoppers’ attention, bundling the console with must-have games like God of War Ragnarok, Astro Bot and Marvel’s Spider-Man 2. It’s also the perfect time to stock up on accessories. Last year, the DualSense controller (was £59.99, now £54.95, Amazon.co.uk) was slashed to a record-low price of £39.99. We anticipate similar discounts on controllers, headsets, and maybe even the PSVR2 this year.

The best early PS5 deals to shop now
PlayStation 5 (digital edition): Was £429, now £389, Very.co.uk
If you’ve fully embraced the digital future and your game collection lives on a hard drive, this is the PS5 for you. Very has knocked £40 off the sleek, digital version of Sony's console. It plays all the same games as the standard edition, just without the need for physical media.
PlayStation 5 Pro + disc drive: Was £768, now £728, Very.co.uk
Here’s a decent saving on the newer and more powerful PlayStation 5 Pro. This bundle at Very gets you the console along with the attachable disc drive for £40 less than buying them separately. The PS5 Pro offers a significant performance boost over the standard model, delivering smoother frame rates and enhanced graphics.
PSVR2: Was £529.99, now £399.99, Game.co.uk
Ready to lose yourself in a game world? The PSVR2 transforms your PlayStation 5 into a truly immersive gaming machine, with exclusive titles like Horizon Call of the Mountain and spectacular VR modes for existing games like Gran Turismo 7 and No Man’s Sky. In my review, I called it “one of the best and easiest-to-use VR headsets”, and now it has a huge £130 discount at Game.
‘Disney Dreamlight Valley’: Was £32.99, now £23.09, Playstation.com
Sure, it’s a shameless rip-off of Animal Crossing, but Disney Dreamlight Valley is an incredibly well-made life simulator and perfect for fans of the Big Corporate Mouse. Featuring crossover characters plucked from Disney’s cavernous catalogue of animated movies, this laid-back and family friendly PS5 game has you carrying out errands for Goofy, unlocking furniture and building your perfect home.
