Gaming is an expensive business. There are the consoles first and foremost, and they certainly aren’t cheap. Then there are the games, which also leave a dent in your savings. Finally, there are the accessories like controllers and headsets, which to many gamers are an essential purchase. What we’re saying is it all adds up.

Black Friday and Cyber Monday are famous for gaming deals. If you are looking to indulge your passion for gaming and save some money at the same time, Black Friday is a good place to start. 

So what can gamers expect from Black Friday and Cyber Monday in 2018? In previous years there have been opportunities to make large savings on everything, from the major players in retail. The likes of Amazon, Currys, and Argos have a history of posting fantastic gaming deals. Of course it isn’t just these guys. Pretty much everyone that sells gaming products will offer some big savings during Black Friday and Cyber Monday, so if you don’t see what you are looking for from one vendor, remain calm and move onto the next.

There’s more good news for gamers coming into Black Friday this year, too, because it’s been a fairly eventful year in the world of gaming — and that means there should be more opportunities to save.

Firstly, there have been recent announcements concerning the next generation of consoles. What does this mean for Black Friday? Well, if the major console manufacturers are readying something new, they will inevitably want to offload the soon-to-be outdated models. So if you are looking for an Xbox One X, a PS4 Pro, or a Nintendo Switch, Black Friday might be the perfect time to pounce.

Secondly, 2018 has been a mammoth year for new releases, with some big names delivering the goods. This year we have been blessed with FIFA 19, Marvel’s Spider-Man, God of War, and — oh yeah — the small matter of Red Dead Redemption 2, which took the gaming world by storm recently. If you are looking to secure any of these big names, then Black Friday and Cyber Monday is the place to be. It is unlikely that the latest releases will be discounted on their own, but that is where bundles come in. You can often pick up a console plus games (including new releases) for a heavily discounted rate, particularly during Black Friday.

Hunting for the best deal during Black Friday and Cyber Monday can feel like an impossible task, but it doesn’t need to be, because we have done the hard work. We have tracked down the best Black Friday and Cyber Monday gaming deals for you.
