PS Direct’s Summer Sale Has Some of the Best PS5 Console & Game Deals I’ve Seen in Ages – IGN

£90 off PS5s and Stellar Blade is at its cheapest retail price.

Amazon has had its time selling us cheaper video games and hardware during Prime Day last week, and now it’s PlayStation’s turn with the launch of the PS Direct Summer Sale ‘25.

Live right now at PlayStation Direct until July 29, the Summer Sale is cutting up to 56% off select games, PS5 consoles, and bundles.

Price drops on the PS5 Pro have not been included this time around, but this is the perfect time to grab a reduced PS5 Slim and jump into this console generation if you haven’t already.

If you have, you can simply sift through the deals on physical PS5 games below and tick some off your ‘need to buy’ backlog.

PS5 Console Deals for Summer Sale 2025

There’s quite a variety of PS5 console SKUs you can buy, depending on what you’re after, but the Digital Edition PS5 Slim is the highlight at £90 off its price at £339.99 from £429.99.

The standard PS5 Slim with disc drive included has been dropped to £434.99 from £479.99, but you could save an extra £20 by just grabbing the Digital Edition and buying the disc drive separately for £69.99.

If you want an extra DualSense Wireless controller, either as a spare or for co-op games like Split Fiction, the Summer Sale also has deals on the PS5 console controller bundles: costing £389.99 for the Digital Edition console and £484.99 for the disc drive console.

Arguably the biggest money-saving deal, though, is the PS5 Slim (with disc drive) bundle with 24 months of PlayStation Plus Premium for £634.99. That’s a £45 price cut from its £679.99 to start.

Then, with two years of PS Plus Premium valued at £239.98 (£119.99 for each 12 months), you’re essentially getting the PS5 Slim with disc drive for only £395.01 — an added saving of £39.98 compared to the standard SKU above, whilst giving you access to PS Plus Premium’s full catalogue of over 700 PS5, PS5, PS4, PS3, PS2, PS1, and PSP games.

Physical PS5 Game Deals for Summer Sale 2025

Speaking of games, the PlayStation Direct Summer Sale has quite a few gems on offer. While some of these deals bring them more in line with price tags at other retailers, others are unique bargains you won’t find elsewhere.

For example, Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered has been reduced to £25.99 from £44.99, whereas the cheapest elsewhere is Amazon for a much higher £34.95.

The very fun Stellar Blade, new physical copies still going for around £59.99 at most major UK retailers like Argos and Currys, had been cut to £51.99 at PS Direct.

Another standout is the Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection for only £17.99, which is almost £8 cheaper than at Amazon. Containing both Uncharted 4 and Lost Legacy, that’s a great deal for two PS5 ports of some solid PS4-era adventures.

Take a look through the full catalogue containing everything in the sale I laid out above and see if anything takes your fancy. Although this sale’s going on until the 29th, some games in the sale — like The Last of Us Part 1, The Last of Us Part 2 Remastered, and Sackboy: A Big Adventure — all dropped to their lowest prices, have sold out already.

We’re assuming any consoles or games that sell out won’t be restocked until after it ends, so I’d recommend grabbing any of the best deals now if you’re considering them.

That said, we’ll still be going back to the PlayStation Direct Sale page each day to check if any out of stock games or consoles have been restocked, and we’ll update this article accordingly if they do end up being re-added.
