Cyber Weekend 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 is no 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're rounding up all the best deals that you can during Black Friday and into Cyber Week, 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: PlayStation Plus (12-month membership)

Why we like it

PlayStation Plus isn't the same value that Xbox Game Pass is just yet, but it's been getting much better as of late thanks to its new multi-tier system. Subscribe to the Essential level, and you'll get access to online play (one of the main draws of PS Plus in the first place) as well as three free games every month to download and play at your leisure. The Extra tier will get you all the stuff from the Essential tier, plus the ability to use the PlayStation Game Catalog, which is a Game-Pass-esque library of titles that you can play whenever you want. Finally, the Premium level gets you all the benefits of the other two tiers, and adds in the PS Classics Catalog, cloud streaming support, and select trials for new releases. All PlayStation Plus memberships also get you access to exclusive deals and discounts throughout the year in the PlayStation Store, which is a pretty sweet perk, too. Pick up a 12-month membership during Cyber Monday and save up to 30%.

'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 the Xbox store for just $24.99, a full $55 off the original price.

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 could change at a moment's notice as we head deeper into 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.
