    If you haven't upgraded to the PlayStation 5 yet, now might be the time. On Cyber Monday 2023, PS5 consoles, games, and accessories are all seeing some fantastic discounts that bring them down to record-low prices. The best PS5 Cyber Monday deals even include sales on the new PlayStation 5 Slim, which features more storage packed into a smaller size, along with an included game.

    The discounted PS5 bundles all cost $499, and include either a new PS5 Slim or the disk-drive version of the original PS5, along with a digital copy of either "Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III" or "Marvel's Spider-Man 2." A PS5 is usually $500 on its own, and games typically cost $70, so this Cyber Monday PS5 bundle essentially gives you a game for free and an extra $10 discount.

    We're also seeing deals on popular PS5 accessories, like $20 off the official DualSense controller and big savings on a 4TB internal SSD that quadruples the console's storage space. You can even save up to 50% on popular games like God of War: Ragnarok and Final Fantasy XVI.

    These deals will likely last until Cyber Monday ends at midnight tonight, November 27. But gaming discounts have a habit of selling out quickly — a number of games have already gone out of stock — so you'll want to act fast. And for even more savings across all product categories, check out our full Cyber Monday deals hub.

    PS5 Cyber Monday FAQs

    What's different between the PS5 Slim and the original PS5?

    The new PS5 Slim has 30% less volume than the original PS5 design and the internal solid-state drive has been upgraded from 825GB to a full 1TB of storage. The standard PS5 Slim also features a removable 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray disc drive.

    Sony says the new slim PS5 model will eventually replace the original, but in terms of in-game performance, they're identical. The PS5 Slim with disc drive typically costs the same as the original PS5 with disc drive at $500; the digital-edition PS5 Slim will cost $450, which is $50 more than the original digital-edition PS5.

    Another small difference is that the PS5 Slim doesn't come with a vertical stand, though it can stand vertically without one. Sony's included stand for the original PS5 works both vertically and horizontally. A separate slim PS5 vertical stand is available for $30.

    How is the PS5 digital edition different from the standard PS5?

    The digital-edition PS5 has no disc drive, meaning you'll need to purchase games digitally from the PlayStation store and download them to play. The original digital-edition PS5 costs $400, so it's $100 cheaper than PS5 models that include a disc drive.

    However, the new digital-edition PS5 Slim allows gamers to purchase a separate disc drive attachment if they decide they want the 4K Blu-ray drive in the future. At $450, this redesigned model will cost slightly more than the original digital-edition PS5. The add-on PS5 4K Blu-ray drive costs $80.

    You can learn more in our PS5 digital vs. disc guide. 

    Is the PS5 worth buying?

    That depends both on what games you want to play, and what systems you own already.

    There aren't many games that are available only on the PS5. Most PS5 games are also available either on PC, Xbox, or on an older PlayStation 4. So if it's cheaper for you to buy the games you want on one of those systems, you might not need a PS5.

    But the PS5 does have a few great exclusive games, including "Spider-Man 2" and the 2020 "Demon's Souls" remake. And there are more coming in the future, like 2024's "Final Fantasy VII Rebirth." So if playing those specific games is vitally important to you, then the PS5 is worth it.

    Additionally, if the only PlayStation console you own is an original PS4 — like a model from circa 2014, or even a newer one that's damaged or running slowly — then it might be time to upgrade.
