Amazon Prime Day is here, and it’s packed with deals for gamers of all platforms, ages, and interests. From state-of-the-art VR, to superfast SSDs, entire gaming rigs, and whole hosts of games to add to your collection, we’ve got the best Prime Day gaming deals rounded up right here. Let’s a-go!
PlayStation Portal for $124
PlayStation Portal
Sony’s handheld streaming device, the PlayStation Portal, is discounted as part of Amazon’s resale deals. Right now you can grab it for just $124. As a big Destiny 2 fan, I’m tempted just so I can play elsewhere in the house (since the game doesn’t run on Steam Deck, boo).
Elsewhere, the PlayStation DualSense Edge Controller, Sony’s answer to the Xbox Elite pads, is down to $147. That’s a 30% discount, but again, it’s Used: Like New.
Video Games Galore!
If you’re a Nintendo Switch or PS5 owner, good news: There are tons of games discounted at Amazon right now.
PS5 owners can score savings on 2025 launches like Assassin’s Creed: Shadows and Split Fiction, as well as titles such as Marvel’s Spider-Man 2, Star Wars Outlaws, and multiple Final Fantasy entries.
Meanwhile, Switch owners can save on the Metal Gear Solid Master Collection Vol.1, Five Nights at Freddy’s, and classic Jurassic Park titles among others.
Xbox’s Amazon Bundle
You don’t need an Xbox these days (or everything is an Xbox, we get confused), but if you want to check out the console-less future that Microsoft keeps banging on about then you can get the Xbox Core Wireless Controller Electric Volt + Fire TV Stick 4K bundle.
Xbox Core Wireless Controller Electric Volt + Fire TV Stick 4K
Xbox Game Pass, a controller, and a Fire TV Stick 4K Max are included in this bundle so you can play without a console or PC
This lets you play games via the included Fire TV Stick and the Xbox controller, with games streaming to you via the cloud. It includes a month of Xbox Game Pass, and we’re quite keen on that Electric Volt pad, too.
Meta Quest 3S
By our reckoning, the Meta Quest 3S is one of the easiest-to-recommend VR headsets out there. Not only does it offer an untethered experience that doesn’t require a powerful PC, but if you do happen to have a PC, it only gets better. That’s because it can be used with VR games like Half-Life: Alyx to play with your PC’s extra horsepower.
Interested? Good news, there’s a discount on both the 128GB and 256GB, bringing them down to just $249.99 and $329.99, respectively.
SSDs for PS5
Whether you’re looking for additional storage for your PC or your PS5, Prime Day is an ideal time to pick up some SSDs.Amazon is offering savings across models with heatsinks and without, with deals of up to 43% off, including mammoth 4TB options.
Gaming PCs
Sure, it’s not a Prime Day deal, but HP’s Omen offerings are worth a look regardless. The manufacturer is offering a couple of high discounts for PC gamers looking for an upgrade by using the voucher code ‘LEVELUP20’.
HP Omen Max 16 Intel Core Ultra 7 255HX RTX 5080 Gaming Laptop (16GB/512GB)
The first is the HP Omen Max 16 laptop, which comes with an Intel Core Ultra 7 and an NVIDIA RTX 5080 for its GPU. Add in 16GB of RAM and a big screen, and you’ve got a great gaming laptop whether you’re at home or on the go. All of that for $1,639.99, a 50% discount.
HP Omen 45L Intel Core Ultra 7 265K RTX 5090 Gaming PC (16GB/1TB)
Select RTX 5090 GPU and 1,200W Power Supply
Elsewhere in the cheekily titled ‘Black Friday in July’ deals, you can find the HP Omen 45L with a staggering RTX 5090 under the hood for $600 off, bringing it down to $3,689.99 from $4,289.99. Keep in mind the coupon code listed above does not apply to the desktop, so you’re stuck with the base discount on this one.
Board Games
You can save on plenty of board games at Amazon, with sizeable price drops. Supercharge family night with 40% off of Codenames, more than half off of Carcassonne, or savings on Everdell and Catan. Cyberpunk 2077: Gangs of Night City is 36% off, too.
A Gaming-Focused TV
LG evo OLED77C45LA 77-Inch 4K UHD Smart TV
The LG C4 4K is a cracking TV in its own right, but it’s even better for console gamers thanks to HDMI 2.1 ports all round, high-refresh rate (up to 144Hz) and a gorgeous OLED panel.
It’s now discounted by 52% for the 65 inch version, and the 77 inch is reduced by 51%, too. That makes the former just $1,196.99 and the latter $1,799.99.
A Real Console: The Xbox Series S
Backbone One (PlayStation Edition, USB-C)
One of the best mobile controllers around, the PlayStation Edition, USB-C version of the Backbone One has a 30% discount to bring it down to just $69.99. Ideal for playing mobile games natively, or via cloud streaming across PlayStation or Xbox services, it’s an ideal travelling companion.
Nintendo Switch OLED
Extra 30% Off Discount During Checkout
Nintendo Switch OLED (Used: Like New)
Sure, the Switch 2 is out now, but the OLED remains a fantastic console that’ll set you back a lot less, and give you the chance to build a game collection for if/when you do decide to upgrade. The console is reduced at Amazon as part of its Resale deals, bringing it down to just $223.
