Black Friday is a fantastic time for gamers—or anyone shopping for the gamers in their life—because prices take a nosedive on this year’s top games, controllers, gaming gift cards, and sometimes even consoles. Although the official start for Black Friday deals is before dawn on November 29th, retailers have made a tradition of rolling out discounts earlier and earlier. In fact, some deals are available right now. We’ve put together a comprehensive guide to the best early Black Friday gaming deals, so whether you’re interested in board games, books, or electronics, we’ve got you covered—and today, it’s all about gaming.
If you’re checking back or visiting us for the first time, you’ll be excited to know some major deals have just been added. For the first time, Black Friday brings discounts on Nintendo Switch consoles and first-party accessories like Joy-Cons and the Switch Pro controller, along with significant cuts on must-have Switch games. For instance, “Tears of the Kingdom” is now only $30 for both physical and digital copies at Walmart—that’s more than 50% off. Not to be outdone, Best Buy has marked down the Asus ROG Ally X by $100, and with the Meta Quest 3S, you’ll get a $75 gift card. Plus, Genki’s excellent Covert Dock 2, perfect for Switch and Steam Deck users, and a sleek Asus 27-inch QHD OLED gaming monitor have been added to the list.
### The best Nintendo Switch deals
The Switch has a variety of exclusive games discounted, but don’t worry if you’re looking for multiplatform titles—they’re listed in the Xbox section too, and most of the time, the Switch version matches the price.
### The best PlayStation 5 deals
Much like the Switch, the PS5 also has a selection of exclusive games on sale. Again, for multiplatform games, check the Xbox section as the prices for the PS5 versions are generally the same.
### The best PC and Steam Deck deals
In addition to consoles, there are great offers for PC gaming and Steam Deck enthusiasts. Keep an eye out for unmissable deals on peripherals and accessories that can enhance your overall gaming experience.
