Black Friday 2025 has delivered unprecedented price cuts on Sony's PlayStation 5 consoles, with both the Digital Edition and Disc Console reaching their lowest-ever prices in the UK market.
Record-breaking PlayStation 5 discounts
Shoppers can now save nearly £200 on PlayStation 5 bundles during this year's Black Friday sales event. The substantial savings vary depending on which console version you choose and where you purchase it from, creating multiple opportunities for bargain hunters.
The key difference between models remains the inclusion of a 4K UHD Blu-ray drive in the PS5 Disc Edition, allowing users to play physical game discs, while the PS5 Digital Edition relies exclusively on digital downloads and typically carries a lower price point.
Where to find the best PS5 deals
Several major retailers are competing aggressively with standout offers. Very.co.uk currently slashes £100 off the PS5 1TB Disc Console bundled with Grand Theft Auto V, bringing the price down to just £389 with free standard delivery included.
Both AO and Amazon are offering the same console but with FC 26 included. Amazon edges slightly cheaper at £379, while AO matches Very's price at £389, with both retailers providing free delivery services.
For Fortnite enthusiasts, Amazon presents the 1TB console with the popular game for £389.99. More significantly, Amazon offers the standalone Digital Edition PS5 without any games for just £294.95, representing a saving of approximately £130.
The standout Black Friday PS5 offer
The most impressive deal identified comes from Very.co.uk, which is currently offering the PlayStation 5 Digital Edition, 825GB version, with FC 26, for just £289 with free delivery. This bundle normally retails at £485.99, making it a saving of nearly £200 and pushing the price below the psychological £300 barrier.
Such significant price reductions below £300 remain relatively uncommon for the PlayStation 5, making this Black Friday deal particularly noteworthy. However, consumers should act quickly as these offers are time-limited and subject to stock availability.
With nearly £200 in potential savings and multiple bundle options available across different retailers, this Black Friday presents an ideal opportunity for gamers to finally acquire Sony's current-generation console at its most affordable price point to date.
