Sony recently unveiled a “Play Has No Limits | PS5” ad promoting a special holiday price for the PlayStation 5 Slim (Digital) at $379.99. The deal, set to run through Black Friday and expire after December 24, served as official confirmation of a significant PS5 Black Friday offer.
However, the original YouTube video has since been removed and replaced with a new “Play Has No Limits” trailer that omits any mention of potential sale details, leaving open questions about the promotion. We managed to capture a screenshot of the details before the video was removed, which you can see below.
Reducing its price from $449.99 to $379.99 – a $70 discount – this offer provides a significant saving on the console, making it one of the most attractive PlayStation deals currently available. We’re anticipating even more Black Friday deals to roll out soon, starting with the 10% discount on PlayStation gift cards currently available at Amazon.
That’s right, Amazon Prime members can also now take advantage of a 10% discount on gaming gift cards, including those for PlayStation. The promotion includes significant savings, such as $25 off a $250 PlayStation gift card, $10 off $100, and so on. These discounts are particularly valuable for those planning to purchase digital games, downloadable content, or subscriptions during the holiday sales period.
PlayStation $100 Gift Card

10% off deal is available on from $250 to $10 gift cards.
Regarding the PS5 Slim Disc Edition, which typically retails for $499.99, there has been no official announcement of a price reduction. However, given the discount on the Digital Edition, it’s reasonable to anticipate potential deals on the Disc Edition during the Black Friday period as well.
As of this article’s publication, Sony has yet to reconfirm the original video or the holiday pricing for the PS5 Slim. However, with Black Friday sales already underway at retailers like Walmart, another official announcement could be on the horizon.
There’s been plenty of speculation about what PlayStation fans might expect this Black Friday, including the possibility of a discount or bundle deal for the PS5 Pro. Alongside hardware deals, we’ve also considered which games are likely to see price drops soon.
In other Black Friday news, Nintendo has also recently announced its sale plans for Black Friday, with discounts on Tears of the Kingdom, Joy-Con controllers, and more confirmed to be on sale in the coming days.
When Is Black Friday 2024?
The actual date of Black Friday in 2024 falls on November 29 this year, but the deals season will begin a lot sooner than that. Leading up to the big event, retailers will begin to open deals online. This usually starts in the last week of Octoberjust before Halloween. Each week leading up to the event will slowly roll out more deals, which ultimately leads to massive discounts on Black Friday. Retailers will not reveal their biggest Black Friday deals until the big day, but most general deals will be available well in advance.
