The 35+ top Black Friday video game deals — plus $70 off an Xbox Series S
Black Friday video game deals make it the best time of year to buy video games. With many people still at home, wary of going out post-pandemic, video games have seen a rise in popularity. The Nintendo Switch is still wildly popular, and there are a host of Switch games on sale like Breath of the Wild (just in time for the sequel that releases in May of next year), as well as other titles like Mario Party. While consoles like the Nintendo Switch and Xbox Series S are easy to come by, it's still tough to get your hands on a PlayStation 5.
The thing to remember is that all retailers are not created equal, and it pays to double-check competitors. “Consumers shouldn’t assume that just because a product is discounted that it’s the best price out there. I recommend checking for the product on one to two other retailers to compare the regular price with a potential “sale” price to ensure you’re actually getting the best deal,” echoes Kristen Gall, Retail and Shopping Expert for Rakuten.

"I bought a combo like this two years ago. Still works great. Plays great," one customer said.
"Nice small Xbox. Doesn’t take up as much room as the X series. Came with an additional controller," one customer said.
"Formerly known as the Oculus Quest 2, The Meta Quest 2 is an amazing piece of tech with tons of amazing games and exclusives. I currently love playing Pavlov Shack, Resident Evil 4 VR, Beat Saber, and more ALL without the use of a computer to run it," one customer said.

"I am in love with this video game. This game is awesome, from the graphics to the storylines. (Must-Have Game Folks)," said one customer.
"Fantastic piece of tech. Simplicity and attention to detail married in the forms of a perfect video game controller. I'd prefer a tamer color, but this one was on sale," said one customer.
Top Black Friday PlayStation 5 deals
"Easy to pop into Playstation 5. If you have never installed memory before, plenty of videos in YouTube showing you how to do it. I would highly recommend this product for additional PS5 storage space at a reasonable price," one customer said.
"By far the best controller I've ever used, I have used box, Xbox Elite, Razer Wolverines, all of it. While some such as the Razer Wolverine may feel nicer, they don't match up with the capabilities of the PS5 controller especially on PC. Steam supports the haptic feedback in almost all games, and it does support adaptive triggers in most PS titles. By far the best controller I've used," said one gamer.
"I was a little hesitant about VP making a comeback with the new action style gameplay. But really glad I picked this up. Combat is super fluid and fun and hoping this is the start of more VP games to come," one fan said.
"Love the open world. Lots of quests to do, big monsters to kill. The graphics are awesome. Highly recommend this game," said one gamer.
Top Black Friday gaming headset deals
"These are some pretty good wireless headphones, with a detachable mic which makes it even better for travelling and compact storage. The sound quality is great for wireless headphones, and the mic monitoring is useful if you need to watch how loud you are or to know where you need to have the mic for optimal voice input," one customer said.
One customer said, "Good headphones! Great sound and has enhanced sound feature that can be turned on."
"These sound great, and have a very long battery life. Very comfortable. Always love my Corsair headphones, and these are no exception. The mic is fantastic, too. Very good spatial and surround sound. I've also noticed far fewer audio bugs than my old Corsair Wireless Void Pros. These will be my go-to headphones for a long time," one customer said.
