Last year’s PS5 Black Friday deals (2025)
Sony’s 2025 Black Friday sale started November 21, 2025, at PlayStation Direct and participating retailers.
| Item | 2025 Black Friday deal | Source |
|---|---|---|
| PS5 Digital Edition (Fortnite Flowering Chaos bundle) | $399.99 ($100 off) | PlayStation Blog, Nov 18, 2025 |
| PS5 1TB with disc drive (Fortnite Flowering Chaos bundle) | $449.99 ($100 off) | PlayStation Blog, Nov 18, 2025 |
| PS5 Pro | $100 off | PlayStation Blog, Nov 18, 2025 |
| PS VR2 | $299.99 ($100 off) | PlayStation Blog; Vice, Nov 18, 2025 |
| PlayStation Portal | $179.99 ($20 off) | PlayStation Blog; Vice, Nov 18, 2025 |
| DualSense controller | $20 off | PlayStation Blog, Nov 18, 2025 |
| DualSense Edge controller | $30 off | PlayStation Blog, Nov 18, 2025 |
What that means this year: list prices went up before this Black Friday. If Sony repeats last year’s $100 cut, the PS5 Digital Edition would land at $499.99. That’s about what it sold for all through 2025 before last year’s sale. So a “Black Friday deal” this year may only bring the price back to where it was a year ago.

What PS5 shoppers looked up
The PS5’s spot among each store’s most-visited product pages from Google search. “Top 500” means it made the store’s list but outside the top 100.

|---|---|---|---|---|

| Walmart | #1 | #93 | Top 500 | Top 500 |
| Target | #15 | #41 | Top 500 | #38 |

- The DualSense controller is a regular of its own: #7 at Amazon and #15 at Walmart in November 2023, and #13 at Target this October.
- The PlayStation Portal placed #14 at Target and #37 at Walmart in November 2024.

Which PS5 to get
- PS5 (with disc drive): plays physical discs and digital games. Pick this if you buy used games or have a disc collection.
- PS5 Digital Edition: the same console without the disc drive, so games come from the PlayStation Store. Sony sells a separate disc drive that can be added later.
- PS5 Pro: a faster GPU for sharper, smoother graphics on a 4K TV. It has no built-in disc drive and costs much more, so it’s for players who care most about graphics.
