Where to shop for the best gaming deals?
When it comes to finding discounts on video games, the major retailers — GameStop, Target, Best Buy, Walmart and Amazon — are probably your best bets. But there are also discounts to be found at some of the less big-named electronic stores, such as Costco and Kohl’s.
Many retailers have previously released their Black Friday ads leading up to today, and we’ve compiled the best of each one already. Check out each individual retailer’s discounts below:

In addition to major retailers, you can also find discounts on games through the digital Xbox and PlayStation storefronts. Microsoft, in particular, makes it super easy to purchase consoles through their website as well.
Most retailers are offering the same video game console bundles this year. For PS4, it’s the three-game bundle with The Last of Us Remastered, God of War and Horizon: Zero Dawn for $199. For Nintendo Switch, it’s the Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Bundle for $299.
Xbox is probably the one with the most variety when it comes to holiday offers on their consoles. They’ve got the Xbox One S All-Digital Edition or $150 off any Xbox One X bundle.
In terms of games, this is where it gets a little tricky because there are so many to choose from. Prices do vary slightly from retailer to retailer but, by and large, most of the games are around the same price this year.
PlayStation Hits like God of War, Marvel’s Spider-Man and Uncharted 4 are half-price and available for only $9.99 just about everywhere. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare is available for just $38. Even some of 2019’s biggest games, like The Outer Worlds and Borderlands 3 are discounted today.
Don’t worry, we’ve already compiled a list of where you can find the best deals and lowest prices for each console. Whether you’re looking for Xbox, PlayStation or Nintendo, each console’s best prices can be found below.
