The PlayStation 5 is the most sought-after gaming console of 2023. But getting your hands on one has been quite a tough process since its release in 2020. The demand has been so great, it’s been challenging to snag a console at all, much less get a good deal. We’ve noticed that it’s recently become a bit easier to find a PS5 in stock, and shoppers can occasionally find discounted console bundles right now ahead of the holiday season. If you’ve been trying to get your hands on a PlayStation 5, keep reading to find out how to score the best deal.
The experts at CBS Essentials analyzed historical pricing data on the Playstation 5 using CamelCamelCamel to uncover key data patterns and help you find the best time to buy. Fnd out how to get the best deal on this coveted gaming console.
When to buy the PlayStation 5
Amazon
The standard PS 5 console typically doesn’t go on sale. We saw several deals on special bundles during the 2022 holiday season, including the PlayStation 5 God of War Ragnarok bundle.
Keep in mind, we do tend to see the best PS5 price cuts around the holiday season and during Prime Day deals, so it’s possible that there may be better PS5 deals available next week during Prime Big Deal Days, and towards the end of the year for Black Friday. However, if you just can’t wait to get your hands on a PS5, you can get one at Amazon now.
Why we like the PS5:
The PS5 offers significant improvements in graphics and performance compared to previous models. It boasts backward compatibility, allowing players to access a library of PS4 games. It also introduces haptic feedback and adaptive triggers that provide a more immersive gaming experience.
