Deals season is officially under way, and while Amazon rolls out its bright blue carpet for its second big Prime Day event of the year, Best Buy isn't backing down. Techtober deals are live, and if you're a gamer without a Prime membership, this might just be the place to shop to ensure you don't miss out on savings.
I'm drawn to Best Buy this year for that exact reason - my Prime membership expired, and I can't afford to renew it, so I'm here to ensure any and all discounts that are running at both retailers are known to all. I've done the hard bit for you; I've scoured through the shelves, I've found the best deals on video games, tech, and gaming gadgets we've tried, tested, then recommended, and I've highlighted them down below.
I've been serving as GamesRadar+'s hardware editor for four years now, covering all sorts of gaming hardware and technology. That also means I've been covering sales like Prime Day, Black Friday, and Best Buy's seasonal sales for just as long, so I know how to spot a good deal and which ones you should avoid.
Switch gamers can get a pretty decent half-off saving here on this remaster of two classics. And of course it'll work for Switch 2 players as well.
We just reviewed the GameSir Super Nova, and it came out on the other side as one of our favorite budget gamepads for PC and Switch 2 players. The only caveat we'd look out for is its Switch 2 wake ability, which didn't work as marketed.
Here's a deal on a PS5 game that only launched earlier in the year, in April. A deal like this so early is usually a sign that a game hasn't sold massively, but by all accounts, it's been received and reviewed well. If you're a fan of fighting games and the Mortal Kombat series, this is one you'll no doubt enjoy.
I'm going to be real with you, I love Battlefield 6. The franchise's signature war-is-hell and epic-scale battle vibes are here, but the gunplay is slicker and better than ever. Sure, I get annoyed when my teammates don't use the excellent revive mechanic, but this is for sure worth investing in while it's going for cheaper. This is available for PS5 and Xbox players.
Here's another deal on a game from 2026, and one that's reviewed really well by fans and critics. If you fancy a tactical Star Wars singleplayer adventure, give this one a crack. Fans of Baldur's Gate 3 might find a lot to enjoy in this one!
