I probably could have held off on writing this until what I like to call "Black Friday proper," on Nov. 28. But I've already seen several top offers fall into the shadow realm, never to return. I've got a sneaking suspicion that my top Black Friday picks will soon meet a similar fate.
Don't get me wrong, there are still some brilliant offers up for grabs, with some of 2025’s best games dropping to $30 or less, while plenty of other big PS5, Xbox, and Switch releases from the past couple of years are also heavily discounted (at least for now).
That's been massively helped by Walmart, which has stocked up on some of the best Black Friday discounts going this year. Yet, with retailers like Amazon and Best Buy still refusing to auto price-match most deals, once Walmart sells out, we likely won't see some of these low, low prices again for a while.
So, writing this article, I am.
You might have already seen my $20 or less roundup, which is still packed with heavy hitters from the last few years and perfect if you want maximum bang for your buck. Some deals are so good, they even feature in this article as well. But I've also tried to keep things as fresh as possible for returning readers.
I've also got you covered if you're looking for a more comprehensive roundup of the best video game deals for Black Friday. My advice is to snap up the following games up ASAP, because once they're gone, they're gone.
