Is Prime Day the best time to buy video games and accessories?

Yes, some of the best deals on games, console accessories and sometimes the consoles themselves happen during the Prime Day event. Many of these items are at their all-time lowest prices and could go quickly. If you see a deal you’re considering, we recommend grabbing it before stock vanishes or the time runs out.

How we choose the best Prime Day gaming deals

Many of us here at CNET have covered shopping events for over five years, including Black FridayPrime DayMemorial Day and countless other shopping events. In that time, we’ve learned how to spot the best deals among a sea of thousands of superficial offers and scams, and we only surface the best offers from trusted retailers. We look for real discounts, quality reviews and remaining sale time when choosing video game deals to show you. 

  • Real discounts mean genuine savings. We check pricing history for products listed as on sale so we know when it’s a case of an inflated list price rather than an actual discount. 
  • Quality reviews and testing are super important for any product. A discount isn’t worthwhile if it results in a subpar product experience, no matter how much you saved. 
  • Remaining sale time is important, too. Some deals are only around for a short time or may be limited in supply. If that’s the case, we’ll let you know upfront so you don’t come back to the deal later only to be disappointed.
