Before black Friday and Cyber Monday, there was a lot of gaming deals swirling around the internet, like the dust created by the release of two new consoles: PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X. Now that the latest iterations have been released, previous-generation games are seeing discounts in everywhere. It’s good timing with the holiday season upon us, but Covid-19 is still raging across the country, and most of us just can’t see the family. Video games provide a great way to communicate with your loved ones at a safe distance. We hope that Black Friday video game and our favorite accessory deals can help us in these troubled times.
NB: We skip the items that are selling Or, no longer at its deal price as of posting. Sometimes discounts come back, so check for yourself. We’ll be updating this guide throughout the weekend.
