Update: A second Billbil-Kun report has this weekend detailed the sort of discounts Sony is expected to make available across its range of PS5 DualSense controllers for Black Friday, including the DualSense Edge. According to the leaker, a "minimum" of €20 will be knocked off the price of PS5 pads.
- PS5 DualSense Controllers (Standard, in a variety of colours) — €54.99 (~£45 — a discount of €20 in Europe)
- PS5 DualSense Edge Controller — €219.99 (~£183 — a discount of €20 in Europe)
Original article: Sony will reportedly offer significant discounts across base PS5 systems and the PSVR2 headset this Black Friday, with reliable leaker Billbil-Kun detailing what the company supposedly has planned. Their report focuses on Europe, but Sony has already confirmed via a new PS5 advert that the base PS5 Slim system will be $380 for the busy buying season.
The leaker says the Black Friday promotion will run from 12th November to 12th December and offers the following:
- PS5 Slim (Standard) — €474.99 (~£396 — a discount of €75 in Europe)
- PS5 Slim (Digital) — €374.99 (~£312 — a discount of €75 in Europe)
- PSVR2 — €399.99 (~£332 — a discount of €200 in Europe)
- PSVR2 w/ Horizon Call of the Mountain — €399.99 (~£332 — a discount of €250 in Europe)
Billbil-Kun also claims the PS5 consoles will be available in a Fortnite Cobalt Star bundle at the exact same price, which bundles in cosmetics for the Battle Royale title as well as 1,000 V-Bucks. Sony will discount the PS5 in other territories like the UK also, though the region's reported price cuts weren't included in the report. We will share more details on any official Black Friday deals from Sony as they become public.
The new PS5 Pro is highly unlikely to feature in any Black Friday sales, but you may be able to score a discount on some of its accessories, DualSense controllers, and PS5 Pro Enhanced games. What are you hoping to pick up on the cheap this Black Friday? Share your wishlist in the comments below.

If PSVR2 started at around this price point, maybe the perception of it could've been a lot more productive
looking forward to getting my 30th Anniversary DualSense around this time instead!
That VR2 price is very tempting, I've saved enough to get me either a Steam Deck or the VR2 but just waiting to see if there's a sale on the Deck before choosing.
If you are on the fence about VR, let this price convince you!
I absolutely love my PSVR2!
And if you are a Premium + subscriber you have a ready made library there for you and you absolutely should play Pistol Whip and Walk about golf!
PS5 Pro is actually discounted in the UK at Argos and John Lewis
Let’s be honest, PSVR2 will be £399 as well 😭
If you are still looking at getting a psvr2 get one it's at a price it should have launched at.
Wow, good price for the psvr2. I hope it will convince more people into trying it. I love mine. Piece of advice, buy the globular cluster for extra comfort.
So the standalone PSVR2 is discounted to the same price as the bundle with Call of the Mountain? That doesn’t make much sense.
@Ravix Yea I got a Pro for 659.99 a couple of days ago Noticed it's 689.99 now though.
Hoping Resident Evil 4 Remake Gold Edition is £20 or less.
@Netret0120 £27 on the salse page atm
I dont care about any of this. I just want a discount on PS Plus.
I'm waiting on sales for expensive sim racing gear personally.
Well I'm after a new tv and trying to find a disc drive, at 300 for that vr is also very tempting.
@Ravix still 659.99 squid at John Lewis - that's a pretty good price right now
@Stevemalkpus It's about moving stock. Makes perfect sense.
@Scarface82G1 At time of writing, the Pro is still £659 (along with two year guarantee) at John Lewis
Might have to jump back on PSVR2 at that price
@Stevemalkpus Have you a link for this?
I hope to see ps+ discounts too.
I picked one up in the last round of discounts, it's great. I'm tempted to get a second backup headset at this price just for the controllers.
@Ravix It already went back up to £690 at Argos.
@Hundred_Hand_Slap got mine in Denmark, no problems, couldn't get the EDGE version or the console itself though...
@Jacko11 it'll likely be the same amount of £ discount as € discount, so £200 discount = £329.99
never forget US prices do not include any sales tax. and UK has 20% sales tax (VAT)
euro countries VAT amount does vary from country to country, but euro price is the same across all
@UltimateOtaku91 These are very different experiences, and I admittedly have no interest in handhelds, but I can tell you that PSVR2 has refreshed my passion for gaming in a way I wasn't expecting at all.
I wish we had a new sale on pstore this week.
Sadly have to wait for next week it seems.
A few games im itching to try but want a good discount on.
I think $399 for a PS5 Pro with a built in disc drive sounds good to me 😄
I wish there was a sale on PS Portal.
What site will the psvr2 be on?
Very have an 20% offer on for new customers that sign up for a credit account with them. It works on the PS5 Pro. The catch is you're taking a hard credit search on your record, but you don't actually need to use the credit to get the offer and can pay in full using your card.
The code is WELCOME and I have ordered a PS5 Pro disc bundle for £635 (instead of £794).
I do NOT recommend using the credit account for anything as the APR is ridiculous. I only recommend doing this if you're going to pay with your card.
Well it's the 15th so the leakers information is already incorrect, but we shall see. It's natural there will be some sort of black Friday sale both on consoles and in the PS Store
@GigaGaia https://www.playstationlifestyle.net/2024/11/15/ps5-black-friday-2024-promotion-dates-info/ says they expect accessories like ps portal to come into effect around the same time
@lazarus11 Wait until 2025 models are out with the new Mediatek chip with four HDMI 2.1 ports, up to 165Hz VRR, and a plethora of other significant advancements. I'm was going to get the highly praised & best bang for your buck Hisense U8N but decided to wait until next year.
@Almost_Ghostly Mediatek oh that's not something I like with phones it stands for updates that stop as fast as possible.
I think it’s meant to be from 22 November given thats when most BF sales start.
I might bit at another vr at that price. I just hope the offer runs over to the 1st when i get paid. Spent too much this month already.
@Almost_Ghostly yeah I was looking at the u8 but it's nearly twice the price of the u7 and not much difference , I'll see what black friday deals there are.
Tempted by the Edge controller, but a 20 discount isn't enough for me. Knock off 50 and I'd bite.
