For context only, not a 2026 promise: Sony's Black Friday 2025 post offered discounts on PS5 consoles. Since then, all three makers have raised console prices (Sony in April 2026, Microsoft in August 2026, Nintendo in September 2026), so last year's deal prices are not a guide to this year.
How to judge a Black Friday console deal
Compare against the official prices above, not a retailer's "was" price.
Check the exact model: PS5 disc vs Digital Edition, Series S 512GB vs 1TB, Series X disc vs Digital.
Bundles: check whether the game is a code or a disc, and whether you already own it.
Buy from the console maker or a major retailer so warranty is straightforward.
