The Black Friday sales event still has some leftover deals even beyond Cyber Monday (2 December). Below are a selection of the best deals for PlayStation 5 equipment.
PlayStation 5 Consoles
Playstation 5 Disc-Free Digital Edition Console (6% off)
RRP £365.00 (WAS £389.99) | VIEW OFFER
You can’t go sim racing on a PlayStation 5 if you don’t have one, and here’s a great way to get hold of one and start racing almost instantly. The digital version of the PS5 sits at a lower price-point than the standard version, so it’s more accessible. Why disc free? Well, you don’t have to worry about losing discs and you can download games directly from the PlayStation store into your console’s storage.
PlayStation 5 Accessories
Logitech G G923 Racing Wheel and Pedals (29% off)
RRP £269.00 (WAS £379.99) | VIEW OFFER
The G923 comes with Trueforce technology, which means the motor control processor is working 4000 times per second to provide you with refined force feedback, so you’ll get the best sim racing experience. The bundle is built to a high-quality standard too: with stitched leather and polished metal pedals.
Logitech G29 Driving Force Racing Wheel and Floor Pedals (23%)
RRP £199.00 (WAS £259.00) | VIEW OFFER
If you’re looking for a wheel and pedal pairing for your Playstation 5 then you shouldn’t overlook Logitech. Available for PS5, PS4, and PC, this version comes with helical gearing – that means it should be smooth and quiet, allow you to let the racing do the talking. 900 degrees rotation from lock-to-lock should be great for those hairpin bends, and you can even adjust the pedals or add a gear shifter, so you can always stay ahead of the game.
PlayStation VR2 (36% off)
RRP £339.00 (WAS £529.99) | VIEW OFFER
If you’re looking for a fully immersive experience, then we’d recommend you give the PSVR2 a go. While some hardcore sim racers will prefer a screen, there’s an interesting experience to be had with a VR headset. The options are limited for console VR sets, but the Playstation VR2 sits head and shoulders above the rest in the market. If you want to be part of the action, then this might be the one for you.
Turtle Beach Stealth 700 Gen 2 Max Cobalt Blue Multiplatform Wireless (21% off)
RRP £118.09 (WAS £149.99) | VIEW OFFER
If you’re sim racing, then you’ll probably want a wireless headset. The Turtle Beach Stealth 700 Gen 2 have a great built quality, and they look stunning in cobalt blue. This set is multiplatform, so you can use it on your Playstation consoles as well as Xbox, Nintendo Switch, PC, and Mac. It comes with a 40-hour battery life, and you can enjoy up to 8 hours of use with just a 15-minute charge. You can even connect the Stealth 700 Gen 2 to your iOS or Android device to take phone calls – we’re imagining a Kimi Räikkönen “leave me alone, I know what to do” situation.
Playseat Trophy Sim Racing Seat (10% off)
RRP £496.43 (WAS £549.00) | VIEW OFFER
The Playseat Trophy is a stylish gaming cockpit that is strong enough to withstand a great deal of force feedback from sim racing steering wheels. With a lovely tubular design, the Trophy is strong, and it can be adjusted to suit just about any budding sim racer. As far as sim racing cockpits go, this is a serious contender, and one that can be a constant as you inevitably start to upgrade your sim racing hardware.

Playseat Challenge Actifit (30% off)
RRP £139.00 (WAS £199.00) | VIEW OFFER
Having a sim racing setup often means having to sacrifice some space in your home or office. Sim rigs take up room, and if you don’t have much, then a foldable cockpit is what you need – enter the Playseat Challenge. The Challenge feature Actifit material, which means it’s breathable – ideal for those longer stints behind the wheel. It’s compatible with Playstation, Xbox and PC, and the great thing is it can be folded away and stored to free up space when not in use. How’s that for versatility?
PlayStation 5 Controllers
PlayStation 5 DualSense Wireless Controller (3% off)
RRP £59.95 (WAS £62.07) | VIEW OFFER
If you need an extra controller for a bit of multiplayer action, the DualSense device is your best bet. You can customise it and get varying specifications, but the standard white controller is the safest bet for a casual gamer.
PlayStation 5 DualSense Edge Controller (save £10)
RRP £189.00 (WAS £199.00) | VIEW OFFER
Get a saving off the DualSense Edge wireless controller compatible for PS5 consoles. It’s a level above a standard controller and you can set it to suit your favourite games for optimum feedback.
Black Friday may be over, but PS5 deals are still live
Yes, even after Black Friday has ended, the PS5 slim is still being offered at a discount. This extends to other PS5 equipment too including headsets, sim racing seats and more.
How much is a Playstation 5?
Well, that depends on which version you’re wanting to go for:
The entry-level version is the Digital Edition which is disc-free. This one is usually £389.99 but you can snatch one up for £365. Then there’s the Playstation 5 Slim, which is usually offered at £467.99 before discounts. And finally there’s the Playstation 5 Pro, which offers great image quality with AI enhanced resolution and higher framerates for 60Hz and 120Hz screens.
When did Black Friday end?
Amazon ended its Black Friday sales event on 2 December 2024. However in previous experience, some retailers and manufacturers tend to keep deals going further into December. Although it should be said, these deals don’t tend to be as significant as those during Black Friday.
This is the case for PS5 equipment – there are still some amazing deals out there to suit a bit of Christmas shopping and gift ideas, so why not take advantage before the big festive day?
