Black Friday 2018: Game's UK Deals For PS4, Xbox One, And Nintendo Switch

Posted: 23 Nov 2018 09:01 AM PST

[Update] Black Friday has finally arrived! But don't worry, you don't need to go into town and elbow your neighbours to get to the best deals first--you can simply shop for them online. Game's Black Friday sale has kicked off properly now, so we've added some of its best offers below.

[Original story] Black Friday is nearly here. November 23 is just a day away and that means numerous retailers have already kicked off their major season of discounts and deals. Game's Black Friday UK sale started in earnest on November 15, and the high-street chain has a number of deals live on its website.

Some of the biggest deals available right now pertain to consoles: you can get a PS4 Slim, Red Dead Redemption 2, two months of Now TV, and either Doom or The Elder Scrolls Online: Morrowind for £250. You can get The Last of Us: Remastered or Overwatch thrown in for just £15 or £20 more, respectively.

On the green side of the gaming fence, you can get a 1 TB Xbox One S with Forza Horizon 4, two months of Now TV, and either The Elder Scrolls Online: Morrowind or Prey for £250. If you're not a Forza fan, you can get the same bundle but with Playground's racer subbed out for a Fortnite full game download, 2,000 V-bucks, and the Eon cosmetic set for the same price.

The cheapest Nintendo Switch bundle contains the device itself with Sports Party for £290; pay £10 more and the sports title gets swapped for Lego DC Super Villains. The Switch is a newer console, so it's perhaps unsurprising deals are a little hard to come by compared to PS4 and Xbox One. The cheapest way to get a new Switch from Game is still to simply buy the console itself--this comes in at £280.

Check out a wider selection of Game's Black Friday UK deals below, or visit the retailer's website for the full list.

Black Friday 2018's Best Deals At Walmart: $37 Black Ops 4, $200 PS4/Xbox One, And More Game Deals

Posted: 23 Nov 2018 08:51 AM PST

Shake yourself out of that turkey coma because Black Friday is here. The annual shopping event is in full swing, so there's plenty of Black Friday deals to take advantage of. That includes at least a select number at Walmart, and while we got a handy heads-up at what's being discounted thanks to its Black Friday ad, some new items are likely to be added while others will be even cheaper today. Case in point: Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 was listed for $40, but as of this writing, it's down to $37 on PS4 and Xbox One. Below, we've rounded up the games, consoles, and accessories for PS4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch that the retailer plans to have on sale. We've also put together a look at Walmart's best Black Friday deals.

The mega retailer has a deal on nearly every console on the market (with PS4 Pro being the notable absence, as it's on sale seemingly nowhere). You can get a PS4 Slim 1TB with Spider-Man for $199--a deal that's already live right now. The Xbox One S Minecraft Creators Bundle are marked down to $199, and you can save $100 on an Xbox One X, bringing the price down to $399. Nintendo Switch still costs $299, but you'll get a free copy of Mario Kart 8 Deluxe with the purchase. Finally, Nintendo 2DS with Super Mario Maker is $79. These deals fall in line with the official Black Friday promotions announced by Sony, Microsoft, and Nintendo, though Walmart (like Sam's Club) hacks off an extra dollar.

When it comes to games, it might be quicker to list the ones that won't be on sale. There's tons of great deals, making Black Friday a good time to grab anything you've had an eye on recently. Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 is marked down to $40, which is $5 cheaper than it is at Target and Best Buy. Assassin's Creed Odyssey is dipping to $35, as is Destiny 2: Forsaken Legendary Collection. And while they're not getting discounts, Walmart is offering exclusive steelbook versions of Fallout 76 and Red Dead Redemption 2 for $60 each.

And for once, Nintendo Switch owners won't be left out in the cold. While Nintendo's big games rarely go on sale, Walmart is offering Black Friday discounts on a good number of them. For $35 each, you can get Arms, Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, Kirby Star Allies, Monster Hunter Generations Ultimate, and Xenoblade Chronicles 2, among others.

As with many other retailers, Walmart didn't wait until Friday to begin offering its discounts. The deals began at 6 PM local time on Thursday, November 22 (Thanksgiving in the US). Online shoppers got access to the discounts even earlier; Black Friday deals at Walmart.com started on Wednesday, November 21 at 10 PM ET (7 PM PT). That means you should get a move on, if you're interested in any of this because stock may already be running low.

You can find the full list of discounted items for each platform below. And if you want to see all the other items Walmart will have on sale, check out the full Walmart Black Friday ad.
