This bundle deal includes the new slim version of the PlayStation 5, as well as a digital copy of Insomniac’s Spider-Man 2. The console lists for $500 on its own, so with this bundle offer, you’re essentially getting the game (a $70 value) for free.

With so many great games to choose from, the PS5’s 1TB SSD can fill up pretty quickly. Fortunately, it’s equipped with an extra internal storage drive slot, so you can easily expand it with an M.2 SSD. The Samsung 980 Pro is our favorite model overall on the market, and right now you can even pick it up on sale (which is impressive, considering that it is sometimes difficult to even find in stock). This model also features a built-in heatsink, which was missing in previous generations.

Where is the best place to buy a PS5 during Black Friday?
It’s a lot easier to get your hands on a next-gen PS5 console than it was when it first hit shelves back in 2020. These days, you’ll find all models — including the new Slim edition — readily available at Sony, as well as major retailers like Amazon and Best Buy. We haven’t seen any direct discounts on consoles so far this holiday shopping season, but there are some bundle deals that can help you score a free game with a console purchase. We are seeing games discounted at all major retailers, too.
Will Sony offer Black Friday PS5 deals?
Yes; Sony has already kicked off its own early Black Friday sale, where you can save up to 30% on select accessories. There aren’t any straightforward savings on PS5 consoles, but there are bundle deals and discounts on controllers, headsets and stylish console covers that can add a pop of color to your gaming setup. Plus, you can score savings on hundreds of digital games, add-ons and more at the PlayStation store.
