Sony’s PlayStation 4 has been a dominant force in the gaming market since its initial release in 2013, and now is a very good time to pick one up if you haven’t already. After all, with God Of War and the upcoming Spider-Man game both being PS4 exclusives, there is a lot of gaming greatness that you can only get with a PS4 right now.
There are various versions of the PS4 on the market at this point, varying from the stripped-back PS4 Slim to the fully-4K-capable PS4 Pro. Whichever variety takes your fancy, you’ll want to check out the very best PS4 deals before you buy one.
Just as we did for the Nintendo Switch and the Xbox One, then, we’ve scoured the web to find the biggest bargains available at the moment when it comes to buying a PS4. As expected, there were loads of different options, but we manage to narrow it down to a select few of our very favourite affordable PS4 bundles. Read on to find out how you could save some serious cash when buying a PS4…
The best PS4 deals
The basic PS4 may not have all the bells and whistles of the PS4 Pro (the main difference is that the PS4 Pro can deliver 4K visuals), but it is still a brilliant console with a vast library of games. A PS4 with 500GB of storage would currently cost you £239.75 at GAME, and a 1TB PS4 would set you back £299.99. These deals are offering a bit more bang for your buck, though…
Get a 1TB PS4 with three games, an extra controller and two months of Now TV Entertainment for £350
Compared to the price of buying all the bits in this bundle separately, this GAME deal saves you just shy of £70. For your investment of £350, you’ll get a 1TB console with three games (Detroit: Become Human, Elder Scrolls Online and Overwatch), a second controller and two months of access to Now TV’s huge Entertainment library.
Get a 1TB PS4 Slim with God Of War for £300
This offer over at Currys is ideal if you’re looking to pick up the PS4 exclusive God Of War game with a console to play it on. At £300, this mini bundle is £46 cheaper than buying the PS4 Slim console and the game separately.
Get a 500GB PS4 with some Fornite stuff, an extra controller, Elder Scrolls Online and two months of Now TV for £280
It may seem like a rather random selection of stuff, but this bundle from GAME offers decent value for money. As well as the 500GB console, two months of Now TV Entertainment, a second controller and Elder Scrolls Online, your £280 investment also gets you a Royale Bomber outfit for your character to wear in Fortnite and 500 V-bucks to spend in that hugely popular battle royale game. Alternatively, you could just get the 500GB console and the Fortnite stuff by spending only £250.
Save £20 on a limited edition console with a game (Star Wars)
Every now and then, Sony puts out a limited edition PS4 console with a funky new paint job. Over at Argos, you can get a limited edition 1TB PS4 that is covered in Star Wars iconography, with a copy of Star Wars: Battlefront II, for £310. This little bundle originally cost £330, so you’d be saving £20.
The best PS4 Pro deals
Compared to the normal PS4, the PS4 Pro has a bit more to offer: as well as the 4K visuals, it has an extra USB port, upgraded HDMI 2.0a output, an optical audio port and better GPU performance. At the time of writing, GAME would sell you a PS4 Pro console on its own for £399.89.
Get a PS4 Pro with four games and Blade Runner 2049 for £350
Thanks to a seriously strong bundle offer on ShopTo, you can spend £350 and get a white 1TB PS4 Pro with four fun games (Detroit: Become Human, Singstar Celebration, Hidden Agenda and the terrific party game That’s You) and a Blu-ray copy of Blade Runner 2049. The combined RRP of these items is £453, so you’re saving a decent wad of cash with this bundle.
Save £20 on a limited edition console with a game (God Of War)
Here’s another limited edition console offer, with one of those snazzy and rare paint jobs. Through GAME, you can get PS4 Pro with God Of War branding – and a copy of that game – for £380. This originally would’ve cost you £400.
Get a PS4 Pro with God Of War for £319
If limited edition designs aren’t what you’re after, but you do want to play God Of War on your snazzy new console, Very is the place to look. If you use the discount code MJWTM, you can reduce the price of buying a 1TB console with God Of War down to £319. That’s £81 less than the price of buying the console and the game separately.
