The best prices out there on all the consoles, controllers and other gaming goods you need for your PlayStation setup.
Considering that it’s still a serious challenge to even find the PlayStation 5 in stock, it’ll be quite a while before we start to see any discount on Sony’s popular next-gen console. But that doesn’t mean there aren’t still some great deals out there on all kinds of PlayStation consoles, accessories and equipment that can help you upgrade your gaming setup for less. With a little digging, you can find big discounts on everything from PlayStation controllers to headsets and even consoles, as long as you can live with a refurbished model.
Below, you’ll find our roundup of the best PlayStation deals that you can shop right now. And for more tips on how to get the most out of your PlayStation for less, you can check out our breakdown of Sony’s new multitiered gaming subscription coming in June.
Plenty of recent next-gen games are still available for the PlayStation 4, and if you’re looking for a good price on a console, your best bet is to shop refurbished. GameStop currently has a selection of used 1TB slim models available for $300, which is about $200 less than the limited quantity of new consoles that are still floating around out there. This refurb model includes a DualShock Wireless controller, and if you’re looking for a game to play right away, there are discounts on tons of hit titles at PlayStation’s ongoing Days of Play sale.

PlayStation VR (refurbished): $150
Save $200 vs. new
There’s a growing number of virtual reality headsets on the market, and Sony’s PlayStation VR is one of our favorites that you can buy right now. Like with other PlayStation consoles, deals are pretty slim at the moment, but if you’re hoping to snag one of these sleek Sony headsets at a discount, you can save hundreds by opting for a refurbished model. This headset features a 1080p OLED display and support for 3D audio, and is fully compatible with both the PS4 and the PS5.
If you’re committed to grabbing a new headset, right now you can also save $100 on the Iron Man VR bundle, which includes the headset and game for $250.
Turtle Beach Stealth 600 Gen 2: $80
Save $20
Turtle Beach is one of the top brands out there when it comes to gaming headsets, and the second-gen Stealth 600 is one of our favorite PlayStation headsets on the market. These headphones are compatible with both PS4 and PS5 and are equipped with 50mm speakers for clear, immersive sound so you can hear every step and shot. They’re totally wireless thanks to the use of a Mini-USB transmitter, and the mic arm folds up into the headset so it’s out of your way when you’re not using it for voice chats.
HyperX Cloud Alpha: $71
Save $29
Another one of our top PlayStation headsets for 2022, the HyperX Cloud Alpha was named our favorite wired option out there at the moment. It’s compatible with both the PS4 and PS5 (and Xbox and PC if you’re looking for a pair that can do it all), and connects using a detachable 3.5mm aux cable. It features dual-chamber drivers for smooth in-game audio, and the aluminum frame and memory foam ear pads make them feel both sturdy and comfortable to wear for long periods.
WD Black D30 2TB Game Drive: $180
Save $90
When it comes to game consoles, 500GB or even a full 1TB of storage can fill up pretty quickly. While you can certainly delete games and download them again later, an external storage drive is a much more efficient solution. This 2TB WD drive is compatible with the PS4 and PS5, but it can only store PS4games. And with optimized speeds of up to 900Mbps, you can skip those loading screens and get right to the action.
Save $60 vs. monthly plan
If you’re after multiplayer mayhem, a discounted PS Plus subscription is a must-have. A membership is what allows you to play games online, and as an added bonus, you’ll also get two free games every month and a free 100GB of cloud storage. A subscription is typically $10 per month, but you can save 50% by opting for a full year membership.
Sony is overhauling both of its subscription services in June, and bundling them into a single multitier service. You can read up on all the changes here.
