11 Best PS5 Game Black Friday Deals of 2023

While we love PS5 games, they can be a little on the expensive side at times. As games continue to push the boundaries of what is possible on a console, prices are starting to align with these advancements, leading to the introduction of $70 launch games. Thankfully, these prices don’t last forever if you have a bit of patience, and now PlayStation Black Friday deals are here to help with a few top discounts.

We’ve had our eye on the best Black Friday deals all November, but now we’re really into the crux of things it’s time to stick down our metaphorical flag and declare — these deals are good. Whether you’re after a Game of the Year contender like Resident Evil 4, or you’re looking to take on Odin in God of War Ragnarok, we’ve found Black Friday deals from a variety of retailers for the very best games. But, watch out, as the countdown to the end of the Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales is now on, and these deals will be gone before you know it.

Resident Evil 4 Black Friday Deals

Walmart’s Black Friday sale is now on, and boy it’s brought with it some incredible discounts. $30 for a Game of the Year contender is a great deal, and this is absolutely the best offer we’re going to get this Black Friday weekend. We gave the remake a Masterpiece 10/10 in our review – stating: “The Resident Evil 4 remake is the series’ most relentlessly exciting adventure rebuilt, refined, and realized to the full extent of its enormous potential.” This is such a great deal on such a great game, and we’re convinced it’s going to sell out before the Cyber Monday sales next week.

Metal Gear Solid – Master Collection Vol. 1 Black Friday Deals

Here’s one where you get to go: ‘It should’ve been that price in the first place!’ — Well, we’ll let you have your fun. The Metal Gear Solid Master Collection Black Friday deal isn’t something to write home about, but it’s the best way to play the classic games on modern consoles right now, and it does come with a lot of content. So, at $39.99, you’re getting a reasonable deal here. It’s not getting any cheaper, either, so this is the best offer you’re going to get.

Street Fighter 6 Black Friday Deals

What can we say, Capcom has been releasing some absolute gems lately, and the Black Friday deals are good as well. Just like its Capcom brother RE4, Street Fighter 6 is down to $30 at Walmart. We gave the game an amazing 9/10 in our review – stating: “Street Fighter 6 is the most feature-rich a Street Fighter has ever been at launch, but even beyond that, it’s roster of 18 characters is excellent, the new mechanics revitalize the one-on-one fighting formula, and it absolutely nails all of the little things that make for a stellar fighting game.”

Star Wars Jedi Survivor Black Friday Deals

Walmart is currently the king of Black Friday discounts, as it also has Star Wars Jedi Survivor for just $30, which is a whole $4.99 less than every other retailer right now. This puts Jedi: Survivor at over 50% off, which is one of the best Black Friday deals we’ve seen this year. If you haven’t had the chance to pick up Cal’s latest adventure, this is a great opportunity to do so. We gave the game a 9/10 in our review.

God of War Ragnarok Black Friday Deals

One of the standout games from 2022 was God of War Ragnarok. If you haven’t played this game yet, then you’re missing out — it’s truely incredible. We expected this title to pop up among the deals for Black Friday this year, and we’re just very excited that the 50% discount has gone live so early. Pick up your copy over this weekend for the crazy price of just $35.

The Last of Us Part 2 Black Friday Deals

Here us out, as this is a great deal. If you’re interested in The Last of Us Part 2 Remastered but haven’t bought the core game yet — you should get this deal. It’s down to $19.99 for the physical copy from PS Direct, and this is $20 less than every other retailer right now.

This is a big deal as those who already own The Last of Us Part 2 on PS4 will be able to upgrade to a digital remastered version on PS5 for just $10 on January 19. Save files will also be able to be imported into Part 2 Remastered. Naughty Dog also clarified that upgrades for disc copies of the PS4 version are only available if you have a PS5 with a disc drive.

EA Sports FC 24 Black Friday Deals

We might complain about it, but FIFA and now EA Sports FC are some of the best-selling games every single year — so there’s definitely still an appeal out there for happy gamers. If you haven’t had the chance to pick up the world-leading soccer sim just yet, well you’re in luck as it’s 57% off in the Black Friday sales.

Currently available for just $29.99 at retailers like Best Buy, this is a great deal and likely the best offer we’re getting on the game until it inevitably ends up on EA Play and Xbox Game Pass come May or June 2024. If you don’t want to wait until then, we suggest bagging this deal this Black Friday. For digital owners, the game is down to $34.99 on PS5 but you can also save 10% on PS credit right now; so ensure you use that before making any purchases.

Final Fantasy 16 Black Friday Deals

You can pick up 2023’s entry into the Final Fantasy saga for just $34.99, that’s a fantastic 43% off right now. If you’ve yet to play this game, then you should move fast to snap it up. We gave it a 9 back in June when it first came out, and we stick by that rating still. The 16th installment in the franchise is a little bit of a departure from what FF would usually expect from the series, but it’s absolutely worth playing.

The Last of Us Part 1 Black Friday Deals

Let’s be honest, this is probably the price it should’ve been in the first place, rather than a whole — checks notes — $70? Well, at least it’s come down quite heavily in price now to $39.99. If you were hoping for any further discounts, you’re out of luck as this is the best we’re getting. Still, we think this is quite a good deal for the perfect version of one of the best games ever made. We gave the game a 9/10 in our review – stating: “A gorgeous and well-honed remake of one of the biggest boppers in the PlayStation pantheon, The Last of Us Part I is the best way to play – or replay – Naughty Dog’s esteemed survival classic.”

Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 Black Friday Deals

Yes, we gave Modern Warfare 3’s campaign a 4/10 (and its multiplayer a 6/10). No, that doesn’t mean this specific IGN writer (hi!) is going to tell you not to buy this game — you can make your own minds up. But, if you are interested, the latest Call of Duty entry is over $10 off in the Black Friday sale, which is likely the best deal we’re getting if you’re looking to play the game over your winter break. If you’re buying digitally, you should also considering investing the digital PS Wallet Gift Cards that are 10% off right now (for example a $110 card for $99, or a $70 card for $63).

Assassin’s Creed Mirage Black Friday Deals

Assassin’s Creed Mirage has dropped to just $39.99 in the Black Friday sales across most retailers. This is the best deal we’re getting on Mirage, otherwise you can always opt for the Deluxe edition at $44.99 instead. We gave the game an 8/10 in our review – stating: “Assassin’s Creed Mirage’s back-to-basics approach is a successful first step in returning to the stealthy style that launched this series.”
