Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One games
what is this You thought Amazon Prime Day was already here and gone. Yes, it technically was, but that doesn't mean you have to wait until next year for Amazon's next big sales event. You don't even have to wait for the organized chaos that is Black Friday. That's because Amazon's intermediary between the two, Big Deal Days, is back. It takes place on October 8 and 9Big Deal Days is an opportunity for those who like to put away their holiday shopping nice and early to score some bargains.
Just about anything and everything you could want for less will probably be on sale in some shape or form on Amazon during Big Deal Days. Tracking down the things you want at the biggest discounts is easier said than done, though. To save you scouring Amazon through the two-day event and during the build-up to Big Deal Days, as many sale prices will kick in early, we've rounded up some of the best deals available. This special center is dedicated to deeply discounted video gamesand whether you play on PlayStation, Xbox or Nintendo Switch, there should be something available for less for you below.
PS5 and PS4 games
By the time the Big Deal Days sale starts in 2024, the PS5 Pro pre-order period will have started. Some of you may even have been lucky enough to pick one up, whether it's the regular model or the PS1-style 30th anniversary model. As great as the latter looks, and as good as the games you play on both will look, they are expensive consoles, so why not grab a few games for it for as little as you can?
The PlayStation section of this guide isn't just for potential PS5 Pro owners, of course. There are games on sale above for those of you with a basic PS5 and even for PS4 owners happy to stick with the latest generation for a little while longer. Even if nothing above allows you to find your card right now, we'll be adding more deals to each section during the build to Big Deal Days and throughout the event.
Nintendo Switch Games
Even though the Nintendo Switch launched more than seven years ago and we know a successor is coming soon, even if Nintendo won't tell us anything about it, its biggest games rarely drop in price. The Switch is almost certainly on track to become the best-selling console of all time, with 21 of its games selling over ten million copies, so Nintendo is doing well. I think he'll survive if we get some of his games for less.
All that being said, since Switch games continue to sell well, even when they're on sale, it's usually just a few bucks saved here and there. With that in mind, we've tried to track down some of the biggest Switch games that, while they might not be much in most cases, are available for less during Big Deal Days, and more to come during the sale event itself. .
Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One games
The biggest selling point of owning an Xbox is still Game Pass, despite recent price hikes and tier reshuffles. However, if you don't have Game Pass, whether you were never interested in the first place, or the price hikes put you off, you can simply treat your Series X|S or Xbox One like a regular console.
Sure, Game Pass is still a good deal, but that really depends on how often you use it. If you only play a few games a year, then it might be cheaper to buy just those games. Especially when some of these games are on sale and right now there are some great ones available for less thanks to Big Deal Days. Some of the games above aren't even available on Game Pass, so grab them for less while you can.
