Best early Prime Day gaming deals 2024
2024 has already been an amazing year for video games. We would maybe even say too good, and by that we mean there’s simply too much to play, and our backlogs are looking downright scary (and expensive). Luckily, Prime Day is upon us, which is always a perfect time to start picking up all the new releases you missed out on at a much lower price. You’ll still have to find the time to play them, though.
Dodge the FOMO and start stocking up on games, consoles, accessories, and more ahead of Prime Day. Below, we’ve already started gathering the best deals we could find, so take a look and be sure to stay tuned as we update our list throughout Amazon’s multi-day shopping event.
PlayStation deals
Why we like it
Final Fantasy XVI is unlike any FF game that came before it, and honestly, we think that’s a good thing. That’s because Final Fantasy XVI is a truly fantastic character action game that combines engaging combat, an intriguing story, as well as the visual spectacle we’ve come to expect from the series to make an incredibly worthwhile adventure for all PS5 owners to experience. Ahead of Prime Day, you can save $20 on the game, and it’s probably the best price we’ll see throughout the event.

Xbox deals
Why we like it
The Xbox Series S is awesome, but unfortunately, it comes with less storage space than you’ll probably need. That’s why we think this bundle is a no-brainer — it comes with the 512GB version of the console itself, with the addition of a 2TB Seagate expansion card. That’s a comfortable amount of extra space, and should be extremely helpful as you download all the Xbox Game Pass titles in your backlog. Ahead of Prime Day, Best Buy is offering the bundle for $100 off the usual price.

Why we like it
If you have any interest in handheld gaming, a Nintendo Switch needs to be part of your repertoire. It’s no doorbuster deal, but the Mario Red edition of the OLED model is $9 off the usual price before Amazon Prime Day. The Nintendo Switch OLED is the best Switch yet, with huge updates to the console’s display, storage space, processing power, battery life, and more. If you don’t have a Switch yet, this is the one you should be buying.
