As part of Amazon’s Prime Day, you can currently purchase the “Slim” model PS4 system with a digital code for Marvel’s Spider-Man, as well as Horizon: Zero Dawn – Complete Edition, for just $250. This is more than $100 off the standard price, and with those two open-world games, you’ll be busy for a long time.

The PlayStation 4 has built up a sizable library of games since its launch in 2013, and several of its best titles are relatively recent. In 2018, we got the excellent Marvel’s Spider-Man, and a year earlier, we were introduced to the desolate apocalypse of Horizon: Zero Dawn. If you’ve been holding off on purchasing a PS4 thus far, Amazon currently has a deal that is too good to pass up.

Marvel’s Spider-Man stars a version of Peter Parker who has already been saving the people of New York City for years, and is coming to grips with the challenges he faces in his personal and professional life interfering with his role as a superhero. It features some of the best graphics we’ve seen on the PS4 to date, and an included photo mode allows you to take stunning screenshots in a variety of novelty costumes. The web-swinging action is exhilarating, as well, allowing you to quickly and fluidly soar across the skyline.

Horizon: Zero Dawn, on the other hand, is an action-role-playing game that takes place years after a mysterious event nearly wiped out humanity. The apex predators are now robotic dinosaurs that protagonist Aloy must eliminate using her archery skills and her wits. It’s an undeniably gorgeous game that requires quite a bit of strategy, as your enemies often have weak points only vulnerable to a certain type of attack. As the story reaches its climax, it’s one of the most exciting games on PS4.

Head on over to our PS4 Prime Day page for even more deals on games and accessories, or check out the Nintendo Switch and Xbox One pages if you’re interested in games for those systems. Prime Day is one of the best opportunities of the year to buy new games, so you won’t want to miss it!

The discounts that you'll enjoy tomorrow from Prime Day gaming deals will be huge, but you don't have to wait because some of them are already available. Here are some of the best gaming deals that you can take advantage of right now.

What Prime Day gaming deals to expect
There may be some discounts for the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X, and their games and accessories, but most of the Prime Day gaming sales will likely focus on the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch. They may not be next-generation consoles, but because of their massive gaming libraries and wide range of accessories, they're still worth buying.
What Prime Day gaming deals we saw last year
Last year's Prime Day gaming deals focused on the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch, but that was before Sony and Microsoft launched the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X. However, even with hype surrounding the next-generation consoles, Amazon's offers for the trio of consoles proved to be very popular for gamers who were expanding their collection or taking advantage of the discounts to buy into their platform of choice.
Should you buy new gaming stuff on Prime Day?
If you see Prime Day gaming sales for the PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series X, or a powerful gaming PC or laptop, you shouldn't hold back on finalizing the purchase because there's no assurance that there will be better offers in the future, such as on Black Friday. Investing in the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, or Nintendo Switch is also recommended if you don't own these consoles yet, as even the most prolific gamers will spend years going through the games that are available for them.

What Prime Day PS4 Deals To Expect
Some gamers are already upgrading from the PlayStation 4 to the PlayStation 5, but that doesn't mean the PS4 is a dying console. Developers will continue to roll out games for the 7-year-old system, so it's still a good idea to take advantage of Prime Day PS4 deals if you don't own the console yet. There will likely be bundles for the PS4 that includes games and accessories, as Amazon will look to unload its stocks of the console. Meanwhile, for current PS4 owners, Prime Day will be a great opportunity to expand your gaming collection and to buy accessories such as extra controllers.
What Prime Day PS4 Deals We Saw Last Year
Last year's Prime Day happened before the launch of the PlayStation 5, so gamers were looking forward to the new system. Amazon still offered Prime Day PS4 sales though, despite the hype surrounding the PS5, as there was still high demand due to 2020's PS4 exclusives like The Last of Us Part II, Final Fantasy VII Remake, and Ghost of Tsushima.
Should You Buy New a PS4 on Prime Day?
The PlayStation 5 is here, but the PlayStation 4 still offers years of gaming with its massive stable of games. You're missing out if you haven't played the best PS4 exclusives, so its still highly recommended to buy a new PS4 on Prime Day. It's also smart to take advantage of the discounts to buy games and accessories for the console, to get yourself set for months, or even years, of PS4 gaming.
The Best PS4 Deals Happening Now
With Prime Day happening next week, the discounts that you can enjoy from the annual shopping event will be worth the wait.
