No more astronomical prices! This is your chance to buy a PlayStation 5 for the retail price. You can get the disc version of the console for $499, or the digital edition for $399. Both come with one DualSense controller. The new controllers feature Haptic feedback, so the patented rumbling that Sony has used since the PlayStation 1 is now more accurate and immersive.

This is the fastest PlayStation by a long shot. Load times on the PlayStation 5 have reduced drastically. Technically the Xbox Series X has more power, but when levels load in microseconds, you won’t notice. Use the links below, and get ready to hit refresh!

Walmart is restocking the Xbox Series X tonight, but not the slimmer Series S. The Xbox Series X is the most powerful of the new consoles. It can run 120 frames per second and has HDR and 12 teraflops of processing power. You’re unlikely to run out of space since the Series X comes with 1TB of storage. Check out the options below, and keep checking every ten minutes!

While the latest generation of consoles had a bit of a slow start, things have heated up in the last few years, and for those who have been waiting to pick up a console, now is a pretty good time when it comes to games, accessories and the like. There are a lot of great Xbox Series S and X deals, PlayStation 5 deals, and Nintendo Switch deals for you to check out, and we've collected the best we could find below. That said, it's important to note that we're currently going through a bit of a deals drought, even when it comes to refurbished consoles, so there aren't a ton of options out there, although be sure to check back as we do regularly keep track of deals and will update this article as better deals appear.
Xbox Series S 1TB -- starting at $349, was $380

The Xbox Series S is the less powerful but cheaper option out of the newest generation Xbox line. When comparing the Xbox Series S versus the Xbox Series X, the Series S takes a hit in all the component categories. That means it's not quite as fast. But if you're not hung up on getting the optimal performance out of your system, you'll actually notice very few differences. The two biggest ones are the Series S's inability to play in 8K, and its lack of a disc drive. Most people don't even have 8K TVs, so that shouldn't be an issue. If you're alright with downloading all of your games straight to the console's memory (and you have a separate DVD or Blu-Ray player), the Series S will work fine. It's quite a bit smaller anyway, and easier to fit on a shelf.

This deal gets you $50 off the Xbox Series X

The Xbox Series X, Microsoft's current-generation video game console, is a powerful machine that will meet the needs of even the most demanding gamers. If you want it in your arsenal, or if you're planning to upgrade from the Xbox One X, you'll want to take advantage of Walmart's $50 discount that pulls its price down to $449 from $499. With more than 500 units sold over the past 24 hours, we're not sure how much time is remaining before stocks run out, so it's highly recommended that you make your purchase immediately if you want to pocket the savings.

Why you should buy the Microsoft Xbox Series X
The Microsoft Xbox Series X offers 12 teraflops of processing power, which enables 4K gaming and 3D spatial sound. Xbox fans will love the familiar interface, and with fast load times, your excitement will never go away. The console comes with only one controller though, so you'll have to buy one more if you want some co-op or versus action with your friends and family members.
