Jelly Deals: Destiny Ghost Alexa Speaker discounted to £23 today

Update: Back in stock and cheaper than ever.

Update 15/03/18: After briefly returning to a more expected £64.99, this Ghost themed Alexa-enabled speaker is back in stock and discounted to £20.97, cheaper than ever before. Get one while you can.

Original Story: Cast your minds back to the launch of Destiny 2 in September last year and, amongst the rabble of reviews and raids, you may remember that Amazon partnered with Bungie to produce an Alexa-enabled Bluetooth speaker that doubled as a little in-game Ghost replica. At launch, that little guy cost £79.99.

Cut to today, when, presumably due to some overstocking, you can currently pick up one of these Ghost replica Bluetooth speakers for under £23 - which is, needless to say, a bit of a steep decline in price.

This price cut is likely to clear the last remaining stock. Using one of these combined with the Alexa Destiny 2 skill, which is also a thing, you can equip different weapons, ask for backup and a handful of other in-game tie-in skills, all just using your voice. The weird little Ghost will talk back to you in that Nolan North Ghost voice, too.

Stock of this one isn't likely to hang around for too long, so grab one while you can, but keep in mind that you'll need to also own an Alexa-enabled device such as an Amazon Echo, Echo Dot or Echo Plus in order to use this thing.
