Fancy upgrading that digital PS5 from release day or want a beastly games console in the front room? Now is the time to pull the trigger on the PS5 Slim (Disc) for only £399. It's usually £479.99, so that's an £80 saving for Black Friday. Still on the fence with this 17% discount? Let's get into it.
PS5 Slim (Disc) UK Black Friday Deal
The PS5 has been a (literal) game-changer since launch, with this latest revision bringing some quality-of-life improvements. It's 33% smaller than the original, which should stop any questions about having a killer modem in your house. It's also lighter, which is good news for dry walls should it get wall mounted (Yes, it's best to display a PS5). Don't worry — the powerful custom CPU and GPU that deliver stunning ray-traced visuals and buttery-smooth gameplay are still here, just packed into a more efficient, eco-friendly design.
The ultra-high-speed SSD is still here and can also be buffed up by fitting a compatible M.2 SSD for more internal storage. Remember when we could stick the kettle on between load times? That's a thing of the past with this console generation. Dualsense is a brilliant controller, too, thanks to adaptive triggers with haptic feedback. Don't believe us? Check out Astro's Playroom platformer included for a brilliant Dualsense showcase. We'd also recommend the three Spider-Man games from Insomniac for getting the most out of a Dualsense controller.
Did you know there's a whole library of PS4 games that are compatible with PS5, too? Some even sport visual and performance boosts, although some upgrades are chargeable.
If you're not quite ready to splash the full amount on this Black Friday deal, Amazon's interest-free installment plans make it even easier to treat yourself this holiday season. With all the upgrades and a solid price drop, this is the console that keeps on giving.
