PlayStation Direct UK is killing it in their early Black Friday deals right now, even the 30th Anniversary PS5 Digital (Slim), DualSense controller and PS Portal are back with a Black Friday discount. There's also up to 33% off PlayStation + depending on which tier you pick, but all of them get an extra 5% off with PlayStation Direct.
All of the deals I've picked out are the Black Friday price and doesn't include the PS Plus discounts, so expect so save some more if you're a member. I'm not going to waste anytime here, let's jump straight into these epic deals on consoles, accessories, games and more:
I can't believe the 30th Anniversary Edition gear is back, I'm proper chuffed. And £49.99 for the DualSense alone is a steal, and you know you want the full set with the PS5 Slim and PS Portal to go with it, again all discounted. Don't forget that cheeky 5% PS Plus discount, which will add up if you're buying all this in one go.
We've got everything from the 2 TB PlayStation 5 Pro to the Ghost of Yotei Black Limited Edition that isn't black. By the way, The PS Pro deal is the same price as a standard price Xbox Series X, so I'll just let that deal sink in (What the hell is happening!?).
The Fortnite bundle is great for anyone who plays it, which is a lot. You'll get 8 exclusive cosmetic items, including a skin and 1,000 V Bucks, which is "epic" if you're in the loop (Nope, not sorry and I miss Unreal Tournament).
The winner for me (again) is the Digital 30th Anniversary Slim console. £334.99 for such a unique bit of kit that takes me back to buying three preowned games for £10 from Game when I was a kid and having my mind blown by the original PlayStation graphics. Tell me you don't want to turn on your PS5 and see the original boot screen and audio if you're over 30. Exactly.
These Black Friday deals make me either want to buy every single controller and put them on a cool shelf or re-shell my Dualsense once a week. Getting controllers like the Chroma Indigo for less than a standard black or white Dualsense on a normal day is a great deal to me.
Dualsense Edge has also dropped to £169.99, a cheeky £30 off and it's worth it. I love a heavy controller, it feels like you've bought something worthwhile. It has adjustable triggers, swappable thumbsticks and caps, full re-map functionality and all the bells and whistles of the original Dualsense with a better battery life.
If you fancy trying out PS VR2, now is a great time to get stuck in, just make sure you get the bundle with Horizon Call of the Mountain instead of the solo hardware. It's the same price and you get a great game for free, so it's a no-brainer Black Friday deal.
The Pulse Elite headset is also £20 off, and includes a hanging charger to boot. It rocks 30 hours of battery life, cracking audio that you'd expect from Sony and a decent mic setup that can noise-rejection technology.
