There's not long to go until Black Friday PS5 controller deals begin in earnest. If you're after a new DualSense Wireless Controller, then the annual sales event is often one of the best times to buy. We're expecting a range of discounts on a variety of colorways and there's always a chance for some nice surprises.
We're not just looking at the stock DualSense though. The seriously pricey DualSense Edge has been on the market for over a year now, which means that it could be a prime candidate for a price cut. There are also a few third-party offerings to keep track of. Companies like SCUF produce some premium specialist gamepads and routinely offer decent seasonal savings.
This is our prime location for all the Black Friday PS5 deals as the come in. You can take a look at some of the early offers below and see some of the highlights from last year to get a good idea of what to expect.
As a Hardware Writer at TechRadar, I keep a close eye on many of the latest gaming products including official PlayStation accessories like the DualSense Wireless Controller. I'm a dedicated PS5 player and has tested a wide range of controllers, so know first hand which products are worth your while this Black Firday.

What kind of Black Friday PS5 controller deals should I expect?
Black Friday PS5 controller deals are often some of the best across the whole sales event. I would expect to see a wide range of DualSense Wireless Controller variants discounted. Exciting colorways like Sterling Silver and Cosmic Red can often come at quite a premium, but are likely to be heavily discounted.
You should also prepare for a few select bundles that allow you to save on a top game too. This is very likely to be the case when it comes to recent sports games like EA College Football 24. The recently released Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 could also be a favorite.
You can see a range of deals from last year below to get an even more comprehensive idea of what to expect.
