Our pick: 'Star Wars Jedi: Survivor Deluxe Edition'
$53.99 at PlayStation Store
$89.99 Save $36.00

Why we like it

Read Mashable's full review of Star Wars Jedi: Survivor.

"It ain’t quite Andor," Mashable's Alex Perry wrote last year, "but Jedi: Survivor is one of the better Star Wars experiences you can pay for right now." At the very least, it's a must-play if you liked its predecessor (2019's Jedi: Fallen Order); it has a more powerful story, better world design, and improved combat. The PlayStation Store has it on sale for just $53.99 ($36 off), and it's the deluxe edition, which comes with a bunch of exclusive cosmetics for Cal, his lightsaber, and plenty more.

Our pick: 'Dead Space'
$39.99 at Xbox
$79.99 Save $40.00

Why we like it

Fans of 2008's Dead Space and newcomers alike should definitely have EA Motive's 2023 remake of the same game on their must-play lists. The ground-up reimagining of the horror classic comes filled to the brim with enhanced visuals, audio, gameplay, and more without sacrificing the scares and tone of the original. It's the best way to experience Dead Space, and it's currently on sale for just $39.99 — a $40 discount.

Our pick: Nintendo Switch OLED + 'Mario Kart 8 Deluxe' bundle
$339.95 at Walmart
$409.95 Save $70.00

Why we like it

Read Mashable's review of the Nintendo Switch – OLED Model.

Nintendo's latest handheld console features a stunning OLED touchscreen display, a built-in kickstand that helps it thrive in tabletop mode, and 64GB of built-in storage — double the capacity of its older, non-OLED counterpart. It's definitely the best Switch yet (at least until the rumored Switch 2 drops) and it almost never goes on sale. However, this Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is just $339.95 for the time being.

Our pick: Razer BlackShark V2 Pro
$129.99 at Amazon
$179.99 Save $50.00

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.
