Black Friday is always a wonderful time for gamers. Console bundles, massive game discounts, extra perks with your purchases — the retail world really takes care of us during the holiday shopping season.

And this year isn't going to be any different. In fact, it may even be better, because the supply chain issues that plagued new-gen console production for the past few years are seemingly over (knock on wood). Yes, that means if you want a PlayStation 5, you can actually get one now. We never thought we'd see the day.

As we do every year, we've started rounding up all the best deals that you can get ahead of Black Friday, from individual games to accessories and everything in between. Whether you're mainly a PlayStation, Xbox, or Nintendo player, there's something here for you.

Just make sure to keep checking back occasionally, because we'll be updating this page with new deals as they come in throughout the big shopping event.

Note: All newly added deals are marked with a ✨, while deals with a 🔥 have dropped to an all-time low price. Deals with a strikeout were either sold out or expired at the time of writing.

Our pick: 'Star Wars Jedi: Survivor'

Why we like it

What's that? You haven't played the best Star Wars game of all time? Well, let's change that — Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, the sequel to 2019's excellent Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, is $40 off the original price for Black Friday. Snag your copy in the PlayStation Store and embark on a galactic journey like you've never seen before.

'Assassin's Creed Valhalla' Ragnarok Edition

Why we like it

With the smaller, more focused Assassin's Creed Mirage just recently being released, some AC fans may still be clamoring for the open-world style that has now become the franchise's bread and butter. Assassin's Creed Valhalla will certainly scratch that itch — it's massive, and it's a direct predecessor to Mirage, so you'll probably want to play it anyway. You can pick up a copy of the Ragnarok edition at Best Buy for just $20.99, a full $59 off the original price ahead of Black Friday.

Nintendo Switch 'Mario Kart 8 Deluxe' bundle

Why we like it

Nintendo's go-to holiday bundle gets you a standard (non-OLED) Switch, a digital copy of Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, and a three-month Nintendo Switch Online membership (you'd spend almost $370 if you bought each piece separately). The bundle went live two months earlier than usual this year, and it's still in stock at Amazon, Best Buy, GameStop, Target, Walmart, and in the My Nintendo Store. That will probably change as we get closer to the holiday season, so consider yourself warned.

Razer BlackShark V2 Pro gaming headset

Why we like it

The first-generation Razer BlackShark V2 Pro is the comfiest gaming headset we've tested: With FlowKnit memory foam ear cushions and a padded headband, you can wear it for hours at a time without getting a headache. It comes equipped with immersive THX Spatial Audio, intuitive on-ear controls, and a crystal-clear mic, and it works with PlayStation and Nintendo Switch consoles in addition to PCs.
