If you missed Black Friday, you have one more chance to nab some major gaming discounts
This Black Friday season was a bit of a godsend for gamers. With hardware costs rising in 2025 and games now flirting with $80 price points, we were in need of a big sales event to help make the holidays a little more affordable. This year’s Black Friday didn't do much to bring down the cost of a Nintendo Switch 2, but it at least gave players who were trying to nab some games and accessories a break. If you missed that sale, don't worry: A lot of those deals are still available for Cyber Monday.
From a much-needed price drop on the PlayStation 5 Pro to discounts on several Game Awards nominees, these are the best Cyber Monday gaming deals worth checking out this year. For each platform, we've called out a few big-ticket items, plus lengthier lists of the best deals for that platform.
[Ed. note: Prices and availability confirmed at time of writing, but could change throughout the day.]
Looking to expand your Nintendo Switch 2 storage? You've got a few options, but your best bet this Cyber Monday is to go with a Samsung P9 Express microSD Express card. You can grab a 256GB version for $48 or go up to 512GB for $75, the latter of which is a 25% discount. If you're going to shop around, just remember: the Switch 2 only takes microSD Express cards.
Look, you aren't going to find many discounts on the Switch 2's biggest games this early into the console's life. You are, however, going to find plenty of deals on third-party games. Chief among those is Star Wars Outlaws. You can get the Gold Edition of Ubisoft's open-world game for just $30, a big discount considering it launched very recently.
While Mario Kart World was the Nintendo Switch 2's flagship kart racer, as explained in our Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds review, Sega's competitor is a very strong alternative, and what's even better is that it's on the original Nintendo Switch too. You can grab it for $20 off now from Amazon.
Beyond the above, here are some terrific Switch games that are discounted for Cyber Monday:
Luigi's Mansion 3, $39.99 (was $59.99)
Mario + Rabbids Dual Pack, $14.99 (was $29.99)
Unicorn Overlord, $24.99 (was $59.99)
NBA 2K26, $29.99 (was $59.99)
Yakuza 0: Director's Cut (Nintendo Switch 2), $29.99 (was $49.99)
Split Fiction (Nintendo Switch 2), $30.00 (was $49.00)
Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma (Nintendo Switch 2), $49.94 (was $59.99)
Little Nightmares 3 (Nintendo Switch 2), $30.00 (was $39.49)
If you've been waiting for the PS5 Pro's absurdly high price tag to come down, you're in luck. You can get Sony's powerhouse console for $100 off this Cyber Monday, taking it down from $750 to $650. That's still splurge-worthy, but it's at least closer to what you'd expect to pay for a souped-up PS5.
Say you're not trying to go Pro and just want a normal PS5. That doesn't mean you can't get a little fancy with it. You can get a special edition PS5 for $500 during Cyber Monday that's themed around Ghost of Yōtei, complete with gold accents and a special DualSense controller. You'll get a download voucher for the game too, so it's a solid discount all around that's marked down $100 this weekend.
The PlayStation VR2 has been a weird piece of tech to recommend over the years, but its Cyber Monday discount makes it an easier sell. You can currently pick up a bundle that includes both the headset itself and Horizon: Call of the Mountain, one of its best games, for $300. It's a good time to grab one too, as recent VR games like Lumines Arise and The Midnight Walk are some of 2025's best.
Cyber Monday is the perfect opportunity to finally pull the trigger on accessories you definitely do not need, but kind of want anyways. The DualSense Edge fits right into that category. Sony's souped up PS5 controller is on sale for $170 today, taking $30 off its normal price. For that money, you'll get back buttons, swappable parts, and more customization features.
Want some games to play instead of hardware? Here are some of the best deals this Cyber Monday on PS5 games:
Death Stranding 2: On the Beach, ($50.00, was $69.99)

NHL 26, ($29.99, was $69.99)
EA Sports FC 26, ($29.99, was $69.99)
Considering that Xbox raised the price of hardware earlier this year, Cyber Monday is a good excuse to get some now-pricey gear at a reasonable price. For instance, the Xbox Wireless Headset is on sale for $96 today, bringing it down from $120. (It used to be $110 before the price raised this year, so it's still a discount.)
You could replace your busted Xbox controllers with a typical colorway like "black with black background" or "white with white background." Or, hear us out, these special edition controllers for $49, which both look and sound straight out of 1999 with color schemes like ICE BREAKER (it's light blue), HEART BREAKER (light pink), and STORM BREAKER (you get the point).
It's pretty simple math. For the price of two movie tickets, you can get five movies' worth of good Indiana Jonesing — and even better, you get to inhabit the man yourself! A globe-trotting adventure with legitimately mind-bending puzzles makes Indiana Jones and the Great Circle one of the best games of the past year, and arguably the best Indiana Jones take of the modern era. You can grab it for $49 during Cyber Monday.
Forget the Game Awards nominations, Obsidian's first-person fantasy RPG is one of the best games of 2025. First-person spell-slinging and rich skill trees wrapped in complex narrative that grapples with the COVID-19 pandemic? It's an all-timer, and now at a steep discount too, available for $47 during Cyber Monday.

You've got a ton of options if you want to pick up a gaming laptop at a discount this year. Sturdy machines like the HP Omen 16 and Asus ROG Zephyrus G14 are on sale today. If you want the right mix of price and power, I'll toss out a recommendation for the Razer Blade 16. For $1900 (down from $2800), you'll get an all-around great gaming laptop with a GeForce RTX 5070 at its heart.
The Steam Deck (well, the base edition Steam Deck) is currently the cheapest it's ever been. The 256GB version is 20% off, taking it down to $319. If you can look past its jet-engine fans, Steam Deck really is the best way to play PC games on the go. Competitors have made forays into the space in recent years, but many still remain quite expensive. This sale widens the price gap even further.
If you'd rather gamble with a Windows handheld instead of Linux, you've got a great option this year. Lenovo's Legion Go S is down to $650, and that's a solid deal for what you're getting. This is the 32GB version of the handheld PC that comes packed with 1TB of storage and has SteamOS. It's basically a Steam Deck with a 120Hz display and a great chip at its heart.
Ultrawide gaming monitors are a bit of a luxury, but they're tempting, aren't they? If I were to ever pull the trigger on one, it would definietly be Samsung's 59" Odyssey Neo G9. It's not just an ultrawide 240Hz monitor; it's curved too! It's one heck of a statement, and you can currently get it for $1480. That sounds like a lot, but consider that it normally sells for $2300!
