FAQ
Which retailers will be best for Memorial Day PS5 deals?
Amazon, Best Buy, and Walmart are all strong bets for the best Memorial Day PS5 deals. Amazon often offers the lowest-ever prices we see on consoles and software, thanks to its subsidiary, Woot. These are extremely limited, though!
Walmart has been surprisingly great for bundles too, being one of the first to reduce the God of War Ragnarok price by $50. Both the retailer and Best Buy host regular daily deals and clearance sales, so always worth keeping an eye out there for a bargain or two. For cheap digital games, CDKeys is your best port of call. PS5 games are often found at half-price there, sometimes better. Last year, here's what we saw, and where.
Amazon: cheap PS5 games, SSDs, and more
Best Buy: daily PS5 bundle deals and clearance sales
CDKeys: up to 66% off digital games – including God of War
GameStop: PS5 stock readily available
When will Memorial Day PS5 deals end?
Memorial Day PS5 deals are expected to end at midnight on May 27th, 2024. We'll be keeping our eyes peeled for any deals that pop up before then, and a few deals at a few retailers might linger on for a few days after the event, but if you want to make sure you're on time for the best prices, keep your alarms set for the 27th.
What to expect from Memorial Day PS5 deals in 2024
Although the biggest savings on gaming hardware and PS5 bundles tend to come during either Prime Day or Black Friday, there are going to be plenty of ways to save your money on gaming gear this Memorial Day. The PS5 itself could see some bundle offerings hanging around - including the Spider-Man bundle at Best Buy. We could even see the return of the $399 digital-only bundle, which would be a really tempting prospect for those who aren't that keen on the fully-priced machine.
Perhaps the biggest savings could come on PS5 games. Usually, for Memorial Day, we see games from the previous November reach some super reasonable prices - so all eyes are on the likes of Spider-Man 2 this year. With New Game Plus now out, it'd be a great time for a discount on it. We could also see Baldur's Gate 3 discounted since it's still super popular. Games that launched early in 2024 could also see their first discounts. Tekken 8 and Dragon's Dogma 2 are in prime position for some deals, and with Helldivers 2 looking to keep up its momentum, some discounts on it could be massive. May we even see some sort of Helldivers 2 bundle for the PS5? All remains to be seen.
Then we come to accessories. SSDs will be really worth keeping an eye on this Memorial Day since their prices have been pretty high so far this year. If you can pick up a 1TB drive for under $70, you're getting a good deal just now, so look to our best SSDs for PS5 guide to know what to look for. Similarly, external hard drives tend to be a staple of any online sale. The best PS5 controllers may see some discounts too, which is always welcome since they're not the cheapest gamepads out there. A price cut to the Victrix Pro BFG would be huge for any FPS player, and a first price cut to the DualSense Edge has been long overdue.
Lastly, with PSVR 2's PC support looming, it might be a wonderful time for Sony to finally drop a new bundle for it, or give it some price cuts. That would be worth preparing for.
We're rounding up plenty more offers, including the best Memorial Day laptop deals and Memorial Day Switch deals as well. Or if you've got a next-gen console, take a look at the best Memorial Day TV deals for high-spec 4K panels.

I’ve been messing around with PCs, video game consoles, and tech since before I could speak. Don’t get me wrong, I kickstarted my relationship with technology by jamming a Hot Wheels double-decker bus into my parent’s VCR, but we all have to start somewhere. I even somehow managed to become a walking, talking buyer’s guide at my teenage supermarket job, which helped me accept my career fate. So, rather than try to realise my musician dreams, or see out my University degree, I started running my own retro pop culture site and writing about video games and tech for the likes of TechRadar, The Daily Star, and the BBC before eventually ending up with a job covering graphics card shenanigans at PCGamesN. Now, I’m your friendly neighbourhood Hardware Editor at GamesRadar, and it’s my job to make sure you can kick butt in all your favourite games using the best gaming hardware, whether you’re a sucker for handhelds like the Steam Deck and Nintendo Switch or a hardcore gaming PC enthusiast.
