2020 is a great year for the PlayStation, with huge new games like Cyberpunk 2077 and The Last of Us Part 2 due for release – and let’s not forget about the PS5’s “holiday 2020” release – so it’s a great time to pick up a console if you haven’t already.
Best PS4 deals this January
There are great gaming discounts to be found in the January sales. We’ve rounded up the best PS4 deals for you, right here. Naturally, console bundles are among the most requested bargains. It’s become pretty typical to see a 500GB PS4 Slim with a game for £250, or the 1TB model for £300, so less than this is a bit of a bargain. Look for prices that drop below those, or bundles with even more games or an additional controller and other accessories.
Now: £349.99
This bundle is slightly different from others as you can choose the two games that come bundled with Sony’s PS4 Pro console. Games range from Death Stranding to Call of Duty: Modern Warfare and God of War, giving you the option to select the games you most want to play.
Now: £229.85
This is one of the cheapest ways to get your hands on a PS4 (500GB) right now, and it comes with a copy of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare too.
Now: £229.85
If you prefer kicking a ball over tactical warfare, this PS4 Pro bundle with FIFA 20 is a great alternative. Was: £276.98 Now: £249.99 (£27.98 off) Though it’s not quite as cheap as the Modern Warfare bundle available from eBay, this PS4 (500GB) bundle comes with a copy of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare along with The Division 2 and a two-month NOW TV Entertainment Pass. Was: £279.95 Now: £249.95 (£30 off) It may not be as cheap as the standard PS4, but the 1TB PS4 Days of Play Limited Edition console is exactly that – limited edition. There aren’t many of these floating around anymore, and once they’re gone, they’re gone!
Now: £25 for 2 games (£5 off buying separately)
Get two PlayStation Hits for £25 right now from GAME, saving you £5 from buying each game separately. The PS4 Pro is a little more expensive, but is worthwhile if you’ve got a 4K TV or plan on getting one in the near future. If you have, the PS4 Pro will help you future-proof and enhance your overall gaming experience. Given the additional horsepower, it’s a very compelling alternative to the Slim and is easy to recommend. You’ll find bundles available for £350, so any less than that for the Pro is a good deal. PlayStation VR bundles are sought-after, too. While the headset is officially available for around £200, you can often find bundles with additional games or other extras. Check out our separate round-up of VR deals for more on this. Of course, loads of PS4 and PSVR games are available for low prices too – look for new releases at £35 or below, while older games often drop to just £10 or £15.

When is Black Friday 2020 – should you wait for a better deal?
Black Friday will take place on Friday 27 November, immediately followed by Cyber Monday on 30 November. Traditionally the biggest sales event of the year, it may yet throw up some even greater tech deals – but with so much uncertainty around finance and retail, and no guarantees regarding what discounts we will see, we advise you not to wait: if you see a deal you like, on a product you need, and you can afford the outlay, buy it today.
