The PlayStation 5 Slim is currently on sale on Amazon for a discount of up to $70 ahead of October Prime Day.
Right now, players can get the PlayStation 5 Slim for only $426.65 for the disc version and $379.99 for the digital version. This is the best deal for a PlayStation 5 console that fans have gotten since the Black Friday sale last year.
PlayStation 5 Slim Sale
People who have been waiting for a good holiday offer for the console can now get their own units for a lot cheaper than normal. It seems highly unlikely that the Black Friday window this year will be able to compete with a better discount.
The latest deal is still a wonderful offer even when it is compared with the $500 Black Friday bundle last year. The latter included games such as Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 or Marvel's Spider-Man 2, according to IGN.
The discounted price for the PlayStation 5 Slim on Amazon lets you get similar savings to last year's promo while giving you more flexibility in choosing your games. The offer is also available at Walmart, Best Buy, and Target in case Amazon runs out of stock.

However, you should probably save your money if you are waiting for the PlayStation 5 Slim (Digital) 30th Anniversary Edition. This particular model is set to arrive on Oct. 10, 2024, and will be available at Amazon, Best Buy, and Walmart for $449.
The disc version of the PlayStation 5 Slim on sale on Amazon has 1 terabyte of storage space. The unit will also come with one DualSense controller. There is also a Vertical Stand available for purchase for only $30, Game Spot said.
Lowest Entry Price So Far
One thing to note about the latest deal is that you will need an Amazon Prime or Target Circle membership to make the most out of them. The design of the PlayStation 5 Slim replaced the original model around this time last year and came with a price tag that was $50 more expensive.
The offer is a great time to pick up the PlayStation 5 Slim as a potential PlayStation 6 console is probably still years away from release. The console also has a lot of accessories that can be bought to make your gaming experience even better, according to Polygon.
This comes as rumors are spreading online that Sony is working on releasing the PlayStation 6 sometime around 2028. The company allegedly showcased a working prototype to development partners at the Tokyo Game Show.
