The sun may be setting on Black Friday, but there are still plenty of awesome deals kicking around if you’re planning to get your shopping done ahead of Cyber Monday. While Amazon certainly has the lion’s share of deals this year, we’ve rounded up the best discounts from across the internet on games, toys, movies, books, and other gaming accessories for you to peruse.
Some of the Black Friday deals I couldn’t resist grabbing for myself this year included a six-pack of Lego Dungeons & Dragons Minifigs, the Hoto electric screwdriver, and the ideal companion for my media PC, the Logitech K400 Plus wireless keyboard.
The best video game deals
$30
Nintendo’s follow-up to the incredible Breath of the Wild found a way to go even bigger, both in sheer scale of the world but also in its “Hyrule engineering” system that has allowed players to go very out there with their machinations.
$40
Naughty Dog’s definitive version of Part 2 includes improved graphics, faster loading, and a new roguelike mode, on top of quality-of-life features.
$41
2024’s best football game doesn’t have “Madden” in the title. Good ol’ collegiate football is back and better than ever in EA Sport’s first college-focused title in a decade. And now, you can get it for over $20 off.
$30
It doesn’t matter which of the eight heroes you pick at the start of Octopath Traveler 2. This sprawling throwback RPG gives each character their own compelling arc while intertwining bigger challenges.
$25
Atlus answered demand with a front-to-back remake of Persona 3 with Reload, injecting the once-PS2-exclusive title with fresh graphics and the pizzazz that gamers expect from the series.
$34
Capcom’s cult classic open-world game from the early 2010s got a fantastic sequel, evolving its beloved Pawn system and delivering a huge world to explore.
$45
The creators of beloved Persona titles delivered one of 2024’s most memorable (and politically-charged) titles. It retains the franchise’s turn-based gameplay, but there’s a spin on every familiar aspect from previous games that keeps this one fresh all the way through.
$20
FromSoftware’s open-world opus is a fantastic treat if you, or a loved one, has yet to jump in. It’s packed with inventive environments, fun quests, and continues the Soulslike tradition of being a very fun (and often punishing) class-based RPG.
$20
Soulslike fans should best ignore the FromSoftware logo if they think Fires of Rubicon plays anything like Dark Souls titles. The only thing connecting these franchises is that the time it takes to die can come in the blink of an eye.
