It’s a great time to go shopping for games like Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, Assassin’s Creed Mirage, and God of War Ragnarok: summer sales are on anywhere and everywhere, including at Best Buy. While the Steam Summer Sale is generally the best-known annual gaming event, when prices across the site are slashed by massive amounts. This year, though, other storefronts are getting in on the goods, including brick-and-mortar retailers, which is great for the physical media enjoyers out there.
That includes Best Buy, which has an excellent sitewide Fourth of July sale on now – but some of its best deals are to be found in its gaming section. With as much as 60% discounts on video games, accessories, hardware, and more, you’d be doing yourself a favor by having a browse. No matter what platform, or what you’re in the market for, there’s certainly something interesting to be found.
Best Buy’s 4th Of July Sale Is Here With Massive Deals On Games
How To Get
Again, Best Buy’s sale is sitewide – that means you can get deals on TVs, dishwashers, audio gear, and more alongside your games and hardware. Discounts go as deep as 60%, although they vary from item to item – but some of the best games of the past few years are handily discounted.

Star Wars: Battlefront 2 is getting quite a few discounts and bundles on Steam, as fans continue to beg for a Star Wars: Battlefront 3.
But Best Buy has one key advantage over Steam’s Summer Sale: it sells third-party hardware. The only pieces of hardware you can get from Valve are the Index and the Steam Deck – the days of the Steam Controller are over. But Best Buy’s sale also encompasses things like controllers, headsets, carrying cases, even haptic vests and fighting sticks, if you’re so inclined.
Besides that, if you prefer to buy your games physically, Best Buy has got you covered. There’s really nothing like peeling off the shrink wrap on a brand-new game, and that’s something you just don’t get with the Steam Sale. And it all comes before Amazon’s Prime Day takes effect, so you won’t have to wait as long to pick up whatever’s on your wishlist.

What To Buy
Lots of great games are going for as little as $19.99 during Best Buy’s sale: you can pick up Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, Assassin’s Creed Mirage (and Valhalla), It Takes Two, or The Crew Motorfest for just $20. If you’re willing to spend a little more, you can grab Star Wars Outlaws, God of War Ragnarok, FC 25, Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart, and Rise of the Ronin will run you $30 – $40.

So, if you’re at all interested in picking up any new games or accessories this summer, the Best Buy sale is a great way to start. You may find your next big game on a deep discount – it couldn’t hurt to look.
