Best PlayStation deals: PS5, controllers, headsets on sale

The newest generation of consoles has been going through a bit of a change recently, with them now having both a digital-only option and a physical disc option, and the Sony PlayStation 5 is no different. In fact, we’ve even seen two new versions, the Slim and the Pro, further making things a little bit more complicated. Because of that, there aren’t a ton of great deals on PS5 consoles right now, since the market is still settling, but we have found a few great renewed offers that are worth looking at.

That said, if the options below don’t quite do it for you, be sure to check out these gaming console deals instead, and if you already have a PS5, then do check out these PS5 game deals to help buff up your library.
