Best PS5 deals to expect for Black Friday 2025

Look for huge savings on essential accessories such as the DualSense controller and official headsets during the sale - (The Independent)

Whether you're looking for a PS5 Pro console, a bundle packed with games or a discount on essential accessories such as the DualSense controller, Black Friday is your chance to find the best deals on all things PlayStation.

Officially, the sale kicks off in November, but Black Friday PlayStation deals start to drop earlier and earlier each year, so 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. Expect to see savings on the console itself as well as deals on some of the best PS5 games reviewed at IndyBest.

If you can’t wait until November to get your PlayStation fix, bookmark this page to get all the latest discount updates ahead of Black Friday, too.

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 (1 December) and beyond. Be sure to check back in with this page as the sale approaches, as I’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 about £70 off the disc edition. With prices already low, I expect to see similar, if not better, discounts on the console this year, from retailers such as Amazon, Currys and Argos.

Where I expect to see extra value is in bundles. Retailers will be competing for shoppers’ attention, bundling the console with must-have games such as 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. I anticipate similar discounts on controllers, headsets, and maybe even the PSVR2 this year.

Why you can trust us to find the best PS5 deals this Black Friday

As IndyBest’s resident gaming expert, I know the PS5 inside and out, from its hardware capabilities to its extensive games library. This means I can tell a genuinely great bundle deal from one that’s just clearing old stock. When it comes to the Black Friday sale, the IndyBest team are veterans, tracking the prices of the PS5 and its accessories year-round, to find the PlayStation discounts that are actually worth your money.
