PlayStation Plus Black Friday deals

Playstation Plus logo and tiers

If you haven't already, one of the first things you'll want to do after picking up a PS5 is to grab yourself a PlayStation Plus membership. There are three PlayStation Plus tiers to choose between: Essential, Extra and Premium. Essential PS Plus Subscribers get a selection of PS Plus games for free as part of their membership every month. If you don't want to download them straight away, we'd always recommend adding new arrivals to your library so you don't forget. Extra and Premium PS Plus members also get access to a curated library of older PlayStation titles via streaming or local downloads.

Technically, PS Plus is sold exclusively on the PlayStation Store, however, you can also purchase these discounted PS gift cards to use towards your chosen PlayStation Plus subscription. We'll be listing any Black Friday PS Plus deals here.


When will the best PS5 Black Friday deals start?

Black Friday PS5 deals will start trickling through at least two weeks before Black Friday proper. Amazon UK will be offering up to 40 per cent off select PlayStation products and we're hoping PS5 console deals will be included!

Who will have the best PS5 Black Friday deals?

If you're a regular to this joint, you'll know that the usual suspects for the best PS5 Black Friday deals will be major retailers like Amazon, Currys, Argos, Very, Game and John Lewis in the UK, and Amazon, GameStop, Walmart, Best Buy and Target in the US. We can also expect specialist gaming stores like ShopTo, Hit and The Game Collection to serve up some stellar Black Friday PS5 deals.

It's also worthwhile checking if these retailers have eBay outlet stores, as you might be able to bag a bargain on some of their clearance items.

Will there be any PS5 stock shortages on Black Friday?

PS5 stock shortages seem to be a thing of the past but if you're banking on purchasing a PlayStation 5 during the Black Friday sales, retailers like Amazon, Game, Currys and Very could very well run out of certain PS5 bundles or promotions. Walmart, GameStop, Target and Best Buy will be your best bet in the US and these could also run out since Sony have said they won't be producing any more of the original versions after the release of the PS5 Slim. But you needn't wait until Black Friday to buy a PS5. Check our PS5 restocks page to find out which retailers currently have PS5 consoles available.

Will PS5 games be on sale Black Friday?

We're already seeing plenty of deals on games, including Elden Ring for £36 and Spider-Man: Miles Morales for £30. We'll be updating this page as we find more, so we'd recommend to keep checking back.


After something else in the Black Friday sale this November? You can find our pages dedicated to all the best Nintendo Switch Black Friday deals, PS4 Black Friday offers and Xbox Black Friday bargains across the site.
