Black Friday sales are here on PS4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and more
Black Friday is the prime time of the year for spending your hard-earned money either for yourself or loved ones during the holidays. While sales happen year-round and July's Amazon Prime Day has become a mini Black Friday in its own right, nothing quite measures up the impact and chaos around Black Friday and its subsequent online-only follow-up sale, Cyber Monday. Currently, Black Friday deals are already live at many retailers despite the day itself not coming until later this week, post-Thanksgiving, so now is as good a time as any to dive into all of the sales.
So what kind of gaming deals can we expect this year? At this point, all major retailers have released their Black Friday ads, including Amazon, GameStop, Walmart, Best Buy, and Target, and as noted above, many of those sales are actually live right now, providing more than a week of deals (though you can expect some of the best offers to sell out). The big publishers--Nintendo, Sony, and Microsoft--have all confirmed their official Black Friday 2019 deals, which will be available at most major retailers ahead of Black Friday. That's on top of their respective digital store sales; PS4's PSN and Xbox One's Xbox Live sales are already live, with the Switch Eshop sale expected to begin sometime this week.
Below, you'll find the best gaming deals confirmed so far for Black Friday 2019. This includes console bundles for PS4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch; console and PC accessories; gaming subscriptions like PlayStation Plus; and some of the year's best games--even Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, released just last month, is on sale at a surprisingly steep discount.
Please note that not all of the following products have listings yet on retailers' sites. Those links will be added as soon as they're available. For reference, here's when each retailer's Black Friday sale kicks off.

PS4 Slim (1TB) with God of War, Horizon Zero Dawn: Complete Edition, and The Last of Us Remastered | $200
PS4's signature holiday bundle this year includes the base console and three of its best exclusives to date: God of War, Horizon Zero Dawn: Complete Edition, and The Last of Us Remastered. On sale for just $200 during Black Friday, the PS4 holiday bundle should be available at all major retailers, and we expect it'll be one of the hottest deals of the event. You'll find it at Amazon, Walmart, Best Buy, and GameStop.
PS4 Pro (1TB) with Call of Duty: Modern Warfare | $300
Walmart has one-upped Sony's official PS4 Pro offer with a nice bundle of its own. For $300, you'll get the powerful console along with the newly released Call of Duty: Modern Warfare.
PlayStation 4 Pro (1TB) with Marvel's Spider-Man: Game of the Year Edition | $289
Google Shopping will have the PS4 Pro bundled with Marvel's Spider-Man: Game of the Year Edition, which includes all DLC, for just $289 during Black Friday.
PS4 Pro (1TB) Glacier White with $25 gift coupon | $300
A GameStop-exclusive Black Friday deal, the gorgeous Glacier White PS4 Pro will be discounted to $300. Plus, you'll get a $25 gift coupon to spend at GameStop.
PS4 Pro (1TB) | $300
Assuming the other PS4 Pro deals sell out, you can also get a PS4 Pro on its own for $300 during Black Friday, which is still a nice price.
PlayStation VR Mega Pack bundle with five games | $200
It doesn't get much better than this PlayStation VR Mega Pack, which will be on sale at Walmart, Best Buy, and other retailers for $200. While it doesn't include PlayStation Move motion controllers, it does come with five great PSVR games:
- Astro Bot: Rescue Mission
- Resident Evil 7
- The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim VR
- Everybody's Golf VR
- PlayStation VR Worlds
PlayStation VR bundle with Astro Bot and Moss | $200
If the Mega Pack sells out quickly, this PSVR bundle with Moss and Astro Bot: Rescue Mission is another popular choice that'll be on sale for Black Friday. Pick it up at Kohl's, and you'll get $60 Kohl's Cash with your purchase.
DualShock 4 Wireless Controller | $39 each
PS4's DualShock 4 controllers will be discounted at many major retailers during Black Friday. Walmart will have the new Fall 2019 colors, shown above, for $39--they normally go for $65. Meanwhile, you'll also find DualShock 4 controllers on sale at Best Buy, Amazon, and GameStop, but colors available will vary by store.
- Black
- Blue Camo
- Electric Purple
- Glacier White
- Gold
- Green Camo
- Magma Red
- Midnight Blue
- Red Camo
- Rose Gold
- Steel Black
- Titanium Blue
PlayStation Plus 12-month membership | $45
Sony's official offer on PS Plus this Black Friday is $45 for a 12-month subscription. This is a solid deal, but we'll be looking to see if it drops any lower at places like Ebay or Newegg closer to Black Friday. Keep in mind that PS Plus subscriptions can be stacked, so even if you still have some time left on your current membership, you can renew early and save yourself some money in the longterm.
Nintendo Switch Lite | $175
It's rare to see Nintendo's new, handheld-only Switch discounted as it only released a few months ago, but Google Shopping (formerly known as Google Express) will have it on sale for $175 during Black Friday, down $25 from its $200 list price. It's unclear whether more colors will be available than just gray. We'll include the link here when available.
Nintendo Switch Lite with $25 gift coupon | $200
GameStop will have its own Nintendo Switch Lite promotion. Though the Switch Lite will still be sold for its regular price of $200, GameStop is throwing in a $25 gift coupon. This deal will only be available Saturday, November 30 and Sunday, December 1, but it applies to the yellow, gray, and turquoise models.
Nintendo Switch bundle with Mario Kart 8 Deluxe and $25 gift coupon | $300
Nintendo's holiday Switch bundle is, disappointingly, a repeat of last year's. The launch model Switch--that's the one without improved battery life--will come with a free digital copy of Mario Kart 8 Deluxe for $300. At GameStop, you can also get a $25 gift coupon with your purchase, but please note that bonus is available only on Thanksgiving Day and Black Friday.
If you're a fan of Mario Kart, which normally goes for around $50, and manage to snag GameStop's offer, this bundle is still pretty decent, especially if you plan to play docked more than handheld. You'll find the same bundle at Amazon, Walmart, Target, and Best Buy, the latter of which is also throwing in a free screen protector.
Nintendo Switch with Crash Team Racing, Switch Online Family Membership | $305
Google Shopping has swooped in with another solid Nintendo Switch bundle option for Black Friday. While the start time hasn't been revealed, you'll be able to snag this Nintendo Switch (the new model with improved battery life) and get Crash Team Racing: Nitro-Fueled ($40 value) along with a 12-month Switch Online Family Membership ($35 value), all for $305.
Nintendo Switch bundle with carrying case, charging dock, and $90 Kohl's Cash | $320
If you'd rather own some handy accessories, this Switch bundle includes the newer, improved console, a carrying case ($20 value), and the popular PowerA Joy-Con Charging Dock ($25 value) for $320. On top of that, you'll get $90 in Kohl's Cash with your purchase, so if you plan on doing any other holiday shopping at Kohl's, you may want to cash in on this deal.
Nintendo Switch Joy-Cons (Gray or Neon Red/Blue) | $60
Need an extra pair of Joy-Cons? Nintendo's official holiday offers include a $20 discount on its gray and neon red/blue Joy-Con pairs. Normally sold for $80, they'll be on sale for $60 at Amazon, Best Buy, and Target for Black Friday.
Poke Ball Plus | $20
This Switch accessory is getting a nice price drop for Black Friday shoppers. Normally sold for $50, the Poke Ball Plus will be $20 during Black Friday. The Poke Ball Plus allows you to take one of your Pokemon pals with you on the go. It also comes with Mew, a mythical Pokemon that can be transferred into Pokemon: Let's Go, Pokemon Sword, or Pokemon Shield. However, the Poke Ball Plus only works as a controller for catching Pokemon in Pokemon: Let's Go. You'll find this deal at many major retailers, including Amazon and GameStop, for Black Friday.
Nintendo Switch Online 12-month individual subscription | $15
Nintendo's online subscription is cheaper than both PS Plus and Xbox Live Gold, but it rarely sees discounts. Target will be offering 12-month Switch Online individual memberships for $15 (rather than $20) during Black Friday. Besides online play, Switch Online gets you access to a huge library of SNES and NES classics.
Xbox One X bundle with Star Wars: Jedi Fallen Order Deluxe Edition + 3 months of Xbox Live Gold | $350
One of the most powerful consoles on the market is bundled with one of this fall's biggest game releases in this excellent Black Friday deal. Available at multiple retailers, this Xbox One X bundle includes Star War: Jedi Fallen Order Deluxe Edition along with three months of Xbox Live Gold for just $350. Considering Xbox One X bundles still regularly go for $500, you can't beat this deal.
Xbox One S bundle with Star Wars: Jedi Fallen Order and $40 Target gift card | $200
For a cheaper alternative to the above bundle, you can also get the Xbox One S, Star Wars: Jedi Fallen Order Deluxe Edition, and a $40 gift card for $200 at Target during Black Friday. The same bundle (minus the gift card) is also at Walmart and GameStop.
Xbox One X bundle with Gears 5 and $40 Target gift card | $350
Another great Xbox One X bundle is available at Target for Black Friday this year. The console is bundled with Gears 5 and a $40 Target gift card for $350. Please note Gears 5 is also available for free with Xbox Game Pass. You'll also find the same bundle discounted at Walmart.
Xbox One S All-Digital Edition Bundle | $149
If buying physical discs isn't your thing, you might be interested in the Xbox One S All-Digital Edition bundle, which comes with Minecraft, Sea of Thieves, and bonus content for Fortnite (2,000 V-Bucks and the Legendary Rogue Spider Knight outfit). The Xbox One S All-Digital Edition wasn't well-received when it first launched at $250, but for a full $100 less, the price may finally be right. You'll find it on sale for $149 at Walmart during Black Friday, as well as GameStop and Best Buy.
Select Xbox One controllers | $39
Need a new Xbox One wireless controller? Walmart will have Xbox wireless controllers for $39 during Black Friday. The Microsoft Store will also have select colors for $20 off. We don't know exactly which controllers will get the discounts, however.
Xbox Game Pass Ultimate: Get 3 months for $1 (new subscribers)
Microsoft is offering a nice discount on Xbox Game Pass Ultimate this holiday season: For a limited time, you can get your first three months of the service--which combines Xbox Live Gold and Xbox Game Pass for both PC and console--for just $1. Considering three months would normally cost you $45, this introductory offer is worth grabbing if you're curious about Game Pass--just remember to cancel before the three months are up if you don't want to continue with your membership.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare | $38
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare has an excellent campaign coupled with exciting multiplayer modes.
The new Call of Duty game just launched in late October, but Call of Duty: Modern Warfare will be available for $38 on Black Friday at Walmart and GameStop. The multiplayer, for the most part, is top-notch, with the best gunplay in series history, and the campaign at least makes an effort to explore the real horrors of war.
