Considering the sky-high demand for the PlayStation 5, you can expect it to be quite a while before we start to see any deals on Sony’s next-gen console. But there are some great deals on PlayStation consoles, accessories and equipment that you can take advantage of right now. With a little digging, you can find big discounts on everything from PlayStation controllers to headsets and even consoles, as long as you can live with a refurbished model.
Below, you’ll find our roundup of the best PlayStation deals that you can shop right now. And for more tips on how to get the most out of your PlayStation for less, you can check out our breakdown of Sony’s new multitiered gaming subscription coming in June.
Sony
Plenty of recent next-gen games are still available for the PlayStation 4, and if you’re looking for a good price on a console, your best bet is to shop refurbished. GameStop currently has a selection of used 1TB slim models available for $300, which is about $200 less than the limited quantity of new consoles that are still floating around out there. This refurb model includes a DualShock Wireless controller, and if you’re looking for a game to play right away, you can save $30 on Horizon: Forbidden West when you purchase it with a preowned PS4.

There’s a growing number of virtual reality headsets on the market, and Sony’s PlayStation VR is one of our favorites that you can buy right now. Like with other PlayStation consoles, deals are pretty slim at the moment, but if you’re hoping to snag one of these sleek Sony headsets at a discount, you can save hundreds by opting for a refurbished model. This headset features a 1080p OLED display and support for 3D audio, and is fully compatible with both the PS4 and the PS5.

Turtle Beach is one of the top brands out there when it comes to gaming headsets, and the second-gen Stealth 600 is one of our favorite PlayStation headsets on the market. These headphones are compatible with both PS4 and PS5 and are equipped with 50mm speakers for clear, immersive sound so you can hear every step and shot. They’re totally wireless thanks to the use of a Mini-USB transmitter, and the mic arm folds up into the headset so it’s out of your way when you’re not using it for voice chats.

When it comes to game consoles, 500GB or even a full 1TB of storage can fill up pretty quickly. While you can certainly delete games and download them again later, an external storage drive is a much more efficient solution. This 2TB WD drive is compatible with the PS4 and PS5, but it can only store PS4 games. And with optimized speeds of up to 900Mbps, you can skip those loading screens and get right to the action.
Walmart
While consoles typically come with a controller, one of the best parts of gaming is couch co-op (or versus) with some friends. If you’re looking for a second controller for your PlayStation 4, this is the best price you’ll find out there at the moment. However, this price is only available on the Midnight Blue color variant.
Sony
If you’re after multiplayer mayhem, a discounted PS Plus subscription is a must-have. A membership is what allows you to play games online, and as an added bonus, you’ll also get two free games every month and a free 100GB of cloud storage. A subscription is typically $10 per month, but you can save 50% by opting for a full year membership.
Note: Sony is overhauling both of its subscription services in June, and bundling them into a single multitier service. You can read up on all the changes here.
