Honestly, Xbox Series X console deals have been pretty woeful this Black Friday. But there is a silver lining as Walmart has the Xbox Series X Digital Edition down to an impressive $398 (was $449.99). If you're shopping for an Xbox console and don't mind the lack of a disc drive here, then this is absolutely the discount to go for.

Good morning! It's Wednesday, meaning we're almost halfway through Black Friday week. As a casual reminder, that doesn't necessarily mean you have until the big day to get your shopping done. Many retailers will be continuing their sales events over the weekend and into Cyber Monday (that's December 2).
That's great news as I'm sure many of you are waiting on pay day at the end of the month before diving into the yearly deals. Rest assured, then, that there's still no rush when it comes to your Black Friday shopping; we're still seeing plenty of stock on monumental deals for Xbox consoles, bundles, controllers, accessories and much more.
Now here's an excellent Xbox game deal for you US folks. Does $40 off EA Sports College Football 25 sound good? If so, you'll want to head over to Amazon where the popular sports game can currently be picked up for 30 bucks!
It's worth acting fast though, as the PS5 version has just sold out, meaning this Xbox version may not last much longer at this price point.
EA Sports College Football: was $69.99 now $29.99 at Amazon
Another absolute stunner of a UK deal now, as the Thrustmaster eSwap X2 Xbox controller (also compatible with PC!) has plummeted to a record-low price at Amazon. It's the first time the premium pad has dipped below the £120 mark. And what's more, its gorgeous Elden Ring special edition variant has seen its first ever UK discount, too!
Thrustmaster eSwap X2 (Standard): was £149.99 now £119.99 at Amazon
Thrustmaster eSwap X2 (Elden Ring): was £179.99 now £158.90 at Amazon
In the UK, Amazon has now priced matched the EE Store on its Xbox Series S (512GB) discount. The popular all-digital console is a superb gateway into this generation of Xbox, and it's currently available for less than £200 as part of this year's Black Friday Xbox deals.
Xbox Series S (1TB): was £249.99 now £199.99 at Amazon
Happy Tuesday Xbox gamers! It's day two of Black Friday week and yep, deals across the board are still going strong. In the realm of Xbox, we're still seeing massive savings on controllers and storage expansion cards in particular. So be sure to stay tuned as we continue to bring you hand-picked deals in this live blog today and the rest of the week!
If you're in the UK and searching for a new Xbox gaming headset this season, Amazon is now offering Turtle Beach Stealth 500 Xbox Wireless headset for well under £60.
With it's Bluetooth capabilities, QuickSwitch technology, audio customization, and up to 40 hours of battery life, this headset is a great low to mid-range piece of hardware build specifically for Xbox gaming, as well as PC.
Turtle Beach Stealth 500 Black Xbox Wireless Gaming Headset: was £79.99 now £57.99 at Amazon
Still sticking with the video games, I've got an amazing deal for you that will save you big bucks. Right now, a physical copy of Star Wars: Jedi Survivor on Xbox Series X is just under $30 at Walmart, which I think is an absolute steal for one of the best games of 2023 and one of the best Star Wars games you can play right now.
This deal is fantastic, cutting the price below half price. Compared to other online retailers, Walmart's offer is the best and I'd recommend considering it before it's gone.
Star Wars Jedi: Survivor: was $69.99 now $29.95 at Walmart
"Ooh, Elden Ring!" said once a wise man. What we have here is probably one of the best and most challenging open-world games of all time and if you haven't yet taken the leap into the world of the Lands Between, this offer will certainly convince you.
Over at Amazon, the price of the Xbox Series X and Xbox One version of the game has been slashed thanks to the retailer's Black Friday discount of 67% off, which will save you just shy of $40.
This is a fantastic deal and one of the cheapest offers we've found for one of the best RPGs of 2024. What's more, this is Amazon's lowest price ever for Elden Ring, and we're not sure if it will ever be this price again after the holiday event is over.
Elden Ring: was $59.95 now $19.93 at Amazon
Black Friday week is finally here! Yes, it's pretty much been underway for the best part of a week already, but now that most retailers and manufacturers have kicked off their own Black Friday sales, there's bound to be loads of new deals showing up this week.
Case in point, EE has a massive £50 the Xbox Series S console right now in the UK. This is very close to the system's lowest ever price. And really, getting the all-digital console for less than £200 is a bargain at any time of year, let alone during Black Friday. Hopefully, the new 1TB model will follow suit with a discount of its own...
Xbox Series S (White, 512GB): was £249 now £199 at EE Store
It looks like Amazon has cut the price of most of its Xbox Series X games this Black Friday because I've got another sweet deal for you.
Right now, Star Wars Outlaws - Limited Edition has been reduced by $20, which I'd say is a brilliant deal if you're after Amazon's exclusive in-game goodies.
Not only that, but Ubisoft has also just released Outlaws' latest downloadable content (DLC), Wild Card, which finds protagonist Kay Vess on a brand-new adventure with none other than Lando Calrissian.
Star Wars Outlaws - Limited Edition: was $69.99 now $49.99 at Amazon
Hey, it's Demi, back once again with more Black Friday Xbox deals, and this time, I'm here to showcase some of the cheapest video game offers.
Metaphor: ReFantazio is one of the best games of 2024 and has even been nominated Game of the Year at The Game Awards 2024.
If you've been waiting to get your hands on a role-playing game (RPG) for Xbox Series X, Amazon currently has a 29% discount, slicing the cost down to its lowest-ever price.
Metaphor: ReFantazio: was $69.99 now $49.99 at Amazon
There's good news if you're also after Xbox's other Cipher Wireless Controller.
Fortunately, Microsoft has also discounted its Ghost Cipher Special Edition pad, which will save you £13. Between the Sky Cipher and Ghost Cipher controllers, I'd say this version is the sleekest and will match perfectly with any white Xbox console.
Xbox Wireless Controller – Ghost Cipher Special Edition: was £64.99 now £51.99 at Microsoft UK
I'm going to move back to the accessories for a time now. If you've been waiting to get your hands on Xbox's new Wireless Controller, now is the best time to invest.
For those in the UK, the Sky Cipher Special Edition, which is probably one of the best-looking Xbox pads available right now, currently has a special sale at the Microsoft Store.
This deal will save you £13 and after some scouting, I've found this is the best online offer right now.
Xbox Wireless Controller - Sky Cipher Special Edition: was £64.99 now £51.99 at Microsoft UK
Good morning, everyone. Demi here with some more Xbox Black Friday deals, covering consoles (in both S and X form), accessories and of course big savings on some of the best games. Stick with TechRadar for the latest offers as we find them!
Available exclusively on the Microsoft Store, Xbox is currently offering an amazing discount on select Xbox consoles in the UK, including a £40-off deal for the Xbox Series S – White (512GB), bringing the cost of the hardware down to almost £200.
If you've been considering picking up a Series S, now might be the best time, since we're unsure if Microsoft will offer it any cheaper this Black Friday. You've also got until December 5 until the deal is gone for good.
Xbox Series S - White (512GB): was £249.99 now £209.99 at Microsoft
For our UK readers, we've also gone ahead and found you the best online deal for the Xbox Wireless Controller.
Right now, you can save £11 on eight color (or should that be 'colour') variants, thanks to Microsoft's ongoing sale, including Carbon Black, Robot White, Shock Blue, Pulse Red, Electric Volt, Deep Pink, Velocity Green, and Astral Purple.
You'll have until December 5 before the deal expires.
Xbox Wireless Controller: was £54.99 now £43.99 at Microsoft
First up, I've got a fantastic deal featuring a range of Xbox Wireless Controllers over at Walmart. This sale will save you $20.99 in total, making it one of the best offers I've found so far.
This deal applies to a number of models, including the Pulse Red, Robot White, and Carbon Black. It's also currently a best seller, so be quick before they're gone for good.
Xbox Wireless Controller - Pulse Red: was $64.99 now $44 at Walmart
We've now reached the weekend and Xbox's Black Friday sales are well underway. We're still seeing big discounts from Microsoft itself on consoles, controllers, Xbox Design Lab and of course no shortage of Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One games via the Microsoft Store.
As a general reminder, we're expecting these deals to last up until December 2. That'll be Cyber Monday, where we also anticipate most outlets to change up their marketing and perhaps offer a few more discounts in order to shift stock before the sales events calm down for another year.
It's great news for fans of premium, highly customizable controllers as Thrustmaster has applied its first major discount to the eSwap X2 as part of its Black Friday Xbox deals.
You can currently save 10% off the modular controller, which lets you swap around parts to better suit your preferred playstyle. Handy if, for example, you prefer that symmetrical stick layout present on PlayStation controllers.
Thrustmaster eSwap X2: was $169.99 now $152.49 at Amazon
Here we have an absolutely monumental deal for the latest Dragonball title on Xbox Series X|S. You can currently save a massive 29% on the game that typically costs the full 70 bucks.
Dragonball Sparking! Zero is the spiritual successor to the classic Budokai Tenkaichi series of arena fighters, and this latest entry is as bonkers and unbelievably fun as you'd expect it to be. Highly recommend, especially if you're after some seriously crazy multiplayer shenanigans.
Dragonball Sparking! Zero (Xbox Series X): was $69.99 now $49.99 at Amazon
I'm happy to report that GameSir is carrying on its excellent Black Friday Xbox deals with a record-low price for its Kaleid Xbox controller. The GameSir Kaleid is now available at 5 bucks less than its previous best at Amazon.
This is one of my absolute favorite Xbox controllers - which should be no surprise as it's an offshoot of the excellent GameSir T4 Kaleid for PC and Nintendo Switch. The Xbox variant is largely the same, albeit with a slightly darker shade for its translucent shell and Xbox compatibility and branding.
As ever with GameSir, expect Hall effect sticks and a range of extra such as lovely RGB lighting and remappable buttons. While it's wired only, I can absolutely recommend this as a go-to Xbox controller, and I even prefer it to Xbox's own official pad.
GameSir Kaleid: was $49.80 now $39.84 at Amazon
There's an absolutely fantastic deal going for one of my favorite Xbox headsets this Black Friday. Amazon has just dropped the RIG 800 Pro HX down to its lowest ever price at under $100.
This is a super impressive wireless headset that goes big on comfort. Seriously, this is absolutely one of the comfiest headsets I've used across all platforms thanks to those extra plush ear cups. It sounds great, too, offering crystal clear comms and crisp audio overall. The inclusion of a bespoke charging dock is also a very welcome bonus here - not something you see often with mid-range gaming headsets.
Nacon RIG 800 Pro HX: was $149 now $99.99 at Amazon
When it comes to cheap and reliable Xbox controllers, few brands do it better than GameSir. And right now, the company has applied a strong 20% discount to the GameSir G7 SE wired controller for Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One and PC.
Expect all the usual GameSir hallmarks here: Hall effect sticks and triggers that prevent drift, a pair of remappable buttons on the back and a multifunction button for various bits of controller customization.
GameSir G7 SE Wired Controller: was $44.99 now $35.99 at Amazon
UK price: was £49.99 now £42.49 at Amazon
Morning, Xbox deals hunters! With Amazon and Microsoft's own Black Friday sales well underway, we'll continue keeping you up to date on the very best deals available today. Remember, you've largely got until December 2 (that's Cyber Monday) to shop for discounts, so there's still plenty of time yet.
As for what you can expect here, it's going to be a range of deals on controllers, console bundles and accessories. Hopefully now that sales are underway, we can expect even stronger deals than what we've seen so far.
Anyways, stay tuned for more as we keep this page updated throughout today and this weekend!
In need of some chill, high-speed platforming as we head towards the weekend? The Xbox Series X|S version of Sonic Superstars has plummeted to a new record-low price at Amazon where it's available for just 20 bucks!
As a huge series fan, I loved Sonic Superstars when it released last year. While it doesn't quite capture the magic of Sonic Mania or the spectacle of Sonic Frontiers, it's still a great classic-style platformer that's well worth checking out at this low price.
Sonic Superstars (Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One): was $59.99 now $19.99 at Amazon
This just in: Xbox's official Black Friday sales are now live! Highlights include £40 off the Xbox Series S at the Microsoft Store in the UK, as well as up to 20% off Xbox Wireless Controllers at participating retailers and via the Xbox Design Lab, which is also currently offering engravings on custom controllers for free.
If that's not enough, you can also save up to 55% on a wide variety of Xbox games by checking out the Microsoft store on your console. Xbox's Black Friday sales will run from now up until December 2, so you've got plenty of time to shop. For more information, be sure to check out our coverage on Xbox's Black Friday sale.
After a cheap wired gaming headset this Black Friday? Then Razer has you covered with this excellent discount on the Razer BlackShark V2 X which is hovering just above its lowest-ever price.
This is a wired model that works well across all systems, including Xbox, thanks to its wired connectivity. It also boasts that characteristic, almost pilot-like Razer headset design. You get robust audio tuned for competitive games in a lightweight design that comes to just 240g. Breathable ear cushions and a soft headband make this a lovely headset to wear, too.
Razer BlackShark V2 X: was £59.99 now £34.99 at Amazon
If you're after a premium grade Xbox controller, then I firmly believe there's none better than the Victrix Pro BFG. Better still, it's 20 bucks off as part of Amazon's Black Friday Xbox deals!
Both the black and white colorways have received the discount, which we'll outline in the links below. But honestly, I'd pick this any day over the Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2 - a controller that I've had several issues with over the years including stick drift and a faulty right bumper. I haven't had such problems with the Pro BFG, and its extras like swappable button and stick modules place it a cut above the pack.
Victrix Pro BFG (Black): was $179.99 now $159.99 at Amazon
Victrix Pro BFG (White): was $179.99 now $159.99 at Amazon
Looking for a new Xbox gaming headset? SteelSeries has you covered with an incredible lowest price discount on its Arctis Nova 7X gaming headset, shaving £40 off its retail price.
I'm highlighting the 7X model specifically as it's the only one that's directly compatible with Xbox consoles, and even features the 'Designed for Xbox' logo. Just be sure you don't add the Arctis 7P model to checkout as that one will only work for PlayStation consoles!
SteelSeries Arctis Nova 7X: was £169.99 now £129.99 at Amazon
We're finally here! Amazon's Black Friday sales have officially kicked off in the US and the UK. The retailer has already been hosting plenty of excellent Black Friday Xbox deals and Black Friday Xbox controllers deals in the run-up to the sales event. With that in mind, I'm extremely confident that the deals are going to get even better - and more broad - now that we've finally crossed the threshold.
If you're in the US, here's a deal you'll absolutely want to check out. Amazon is currently selling Madden NFL 25 at half price, meaning it's currently slightly cheaper than the retailer's current sale price for EA Sports College Football 25. If you prefer the high stakes, big stadium play of the main series, then this deal is one worth checking out.
Madden NFL 25: was $69.99 now $34.97 at Amazon
A mid-range headset at a decently budget price point? That's what Razer is bringing to the Black Friday Xbox deals with this stellar discount on the Razer Kaira Pro gaming headset. At 40% off at Amazon, I can highly recommend this workhorse of a headset - the PlayStation version of which I've previously used extensively for online multiplayer party chat. That, and it sounds great too. And fear not, the Xbox version is identical in terms of features - it just bears the black and green Razer/Xbox colors instead of PlayStation's blue and white.
Razer Kaira Pro for Xbox: was $149.99 now $89.99 at Amazon
If you want to make the most of this year's Black Friday Xbox deals, you might also want to subscribe to Amazon Prime to ensure you're getting next-day delivery on most 'Fulfilled by Amazon' items. That way, you'll also guarantee that your purchases will arrive in time for the Holidays if you're shopping for gifts, too.
We've got a handy widget below that'll guide you to your desired subscription based on your home region, be that a month or a year - or even the free one month trial if you're a first-time subscriber.
Another excellent Amazon Xbox game deal is for Star Wars Outlaws - Limited Edition. Normally, this'll be the full 70 bucks price tag. But right now, the Xbox Series X|S version can be yours at a massive 29% off.
The limited edition adds some nifty bonus content to Kay Vess's open-world adventure - namely the Rogue Infiltrator cosmetic pack. Of course, you're getting the excellent full game here too, providing hours of open-world Star Wars adventuring both on planet and up in space as you engage in dogfights with the Empire and various criminal factions.
Star Wars Outlaws Limited Edition: was $69.99 now $49.99 at Amazon
We're seeing some brilliant Xbox Series X|S game deals today, and one we'll point you towards this morning is this half-price deal for EA Sports FC 25. In the US, it can be yours for just $34.97 (was $69.99).
In the UK you've got two options. The digital version - available via instant download code in your emails - is £34.99 (was £69.99). Meanwhile, the physical boxed version is slightly pricier, but still on sale at £42.99. Check the links below!
US - EA Sports FC 25: was $69.99 now $34.99 at Amazon
UK - EA Sports FC 25 (Digital): was £69.99 now £34.99 at Amazon
UK - EA Sports FC 25 (Physical Disc): was £69.99 now £42.99 at Amazon
Good morning, UK folks! We're currently prepping for another day of early Black Friday prep and deals recommendations. However, you should know that Amazon UK's official Black Friday sales start tonight at midnight.
Now granted, I imagine most of you will be asleep by then (and so should I, given my horrendous sleep schedule), but it's worth bookmarking Amazon's gaming categories in advance as we're expecting several fresh Black Friday Xbox deals to arrive overnight.
Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 has just recently released, and if you're interested in playing the updated flight sim game, there's a chance you'll want to go the whole hog and pair a flight stick with it to up your immersion.
Amazon seems to have been thinking the same thing, as right now, the Turtle Beach VelocityOne flightstick has been reduced to its lowest ever price at the online retailer. Now firmly under $100 while stocks last, it's a great and affordable companion to Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024.
Turtle Beach VelocityOne flightstick: was $129.99 now $97.49 at Amazon
Here's one for folks after a new gaming headset for the Holidays. The marvelous Astro A50 is currently $100 cheaper than usual over at Best Buy. This typically premium-priced headset is well worth the investment thanks to its fantastic sound, impeccable microphone performance for online multiplayer and multiplatform capabilities that makes it usable across both Xbox and PC.
But don't just take my word for it. The Astro A50 is also among our Managing Editor Rob's favorite gaming headsets, having used it for a number of years across several different consoles.
Astro A50 Gen 4 wireless gaming headset: was $249.99 now $149.99 at Best Buy
Back over in the world of controllers, there is an absolutely superb Black Friday Xbox deal for the Razer Wolverine V2 Chroma at Best Buy. This superb wired Xbox pad is half price at the online retailer right now.
Its successor, the Razer Wolverine V3 Pro, is my favorite Xbox controller of all time. You can read all about why in my review for it. But that's not to say the V2 Chroma isn't also worth considering. It's got great build quality, super responsive controls and a lovely RGB light pattern flanking each of its grips. If you're in the market for a Pro-adjacent Xbox pad that also works on PC, definitely check this one out.
Razer Wolverine V2 Chroma: was $149.99 now $74.99 at Best Buy
Here's a pretty awesome little bundle if you're looking to purchase an Xbox Series X console for the first time. Walmart is hosting a bundle that includes the 1TB Digital Edition console and two Robot White Xbox Wireless Controllers.
If you want to learn more about this console specifically, you can check out my Xbox Series X Digital Edition review, where I explain why it's a fine choice for budding Xbox Game Pass subscribers, or folks who aren't too fussed about the lack of a disc drive. You're still getting the same Xbox Series X power as the base model here, too.
Xbox Series X 1TB Digital Edition bundle: was $599.99 now $489.99 at Walmart
Perhaps my absolute favorite Black Friday Xbox deal so far is for the WD Black C50 expansion card. Specifically, the 1TB model, which is currently down to its lowest ever price at Amazon.
Most Xbox consoles ship with around 800GB of usable storage space out of the box. If you're an Xbox Game Pass subscriber, or typically install games with large file sizes, I think you'll agree that this simply isn't enough. What you're getting here, then, is a flat 1TB of extra space for under $100.
WD Black C50 (1TB): was $157.99 now $99.99 at Amazon
Where should you shop for Black Friday Xbox controller deals?
The best Black Friday Xbox controller deals, unlike Amazon-centric sales events, will be hosted at various retailers in both the US and UK. If you're specifically after an Xbox controller or two this year, be sure to keep these retailer pages bookmarked throughout the event:
US:
Amazon: will typically have cheaper gamepads across the board
Microsoft: the official home of Xbox controllers
Best Buy: Xbox gamepads in a range of colors and decent discounts
Walmart: often price-matches Xbox controllers with Amazon
GameStop: Xbox controllers in good stock and at solid prices
Target: lighter on discounts, but usually has plenty in stock
UK:
Amazon: your first port of call for most official and third-party pads
John Lewis: fantastic 2-year warranty and protection plans
Argos: will often price-match Amazon on the best Xbox controllers
Currys: excellent selection of official colors and reliable for stock
Very: a solid option that often beats the competition on discounts
Kicking things off with one of my absolute favorite deals I've come across before Black Friday has even started. Right now, you can pick up the recently released Ghost Cipher Xbox Wireless Controller special edition for its lowest price yet.
I adore the color scheme Microsoft has opted for with this limited edition gamepad. I'm typically a huge fan of that late 90s/early 2000s-esque translucent look, and the gold finish on the d-pad and triggers really helps this one stand out. You can shop for it at Lenovo while stocks last.
Xbox Wireless Controller - Ghost Cipher Special Edition: was $69.99 now $54.99 at Lenovo
