PlayStation’s Black Friday Sale Is Live

It’s official: Black Friday season is upon us. As Sony announced yesterday, the PlayStation Store has kicked off its Black Friday sale. This portion of the sale runs November 4 - 20, dropping prices on thousands of digital PS5 games. These range from older titles you’d expect to get discounts to new 2026 games like Wolverine, Control Resonant, Silent Hill: Townfall, and many more.

Before diving into the deals, a couple of things to note. First, Sony appears to be using dynamic pricing in this sale; prices may vary depending on whether you are signed in or out. Second, these deals are just the beginning of Black Friday season, and they may not be the best deals available. With other retailers also running sales, keep that in mind when planning your purchases.

The biggest first-party PS5 game of the fall is Marvel’s Wolverine from Insomniac. It's a fun single-player action game. While only the digital deluxe edition is on sale, the discount makes it cheaper than the standard edition by $10. In addition to the base game, it includes exclusive suits and claw skins. However, if you have a PS5 with a disc drive, you can get a pre-owned copy of the standard edition at other retailers for potentially bigger discounts.

Other notable games on sale include Control Resonant, which is also offered as a digital deluxe edition. The deluxe edition of 007: First Light is on sale for 50% off and includes some in-game outfits and extras. If you dig horror, Silent Hill: Townfall is available with a cool 20% off, while Beast of Reincarnation is discounted by 25%.

Ultimately, the article advises that if players want the best deals possible, they should keep an eye out for bigger discounts in the weeks to come. For now, it suggests buying only the games you plan to start playing very soon.
