PlayStation’s Black Friday Deals 2025
Pre- Black Friday FAQ Megathread, Questions and Discussion
PlayStation Store Black Friday 2025 Sale Now Live; This Is the One You've Been Waiting For
PSA: There are NO PS Plus Essentials Black Friday deals (in the US), even if your subscription has expired!
Black Friday season is approaching, but details are not known yet! This thread is here to collect all questions, speculation, and discussion about upcoming PlayStation Black Friday deals, including PS+ discounts and game sales. Updates will be added to this post once official details are announced or leaked.
All Black Friday related posts made outside of this thread will be removed until the official sale begins.
This helps keep the subreddit organized and avoids multiple repetitive posts.
Once the sale officially starts, a Black Friday Deals Megathread will replace this one.
When do Black Friday deals start?
We don’t know yet, but you can check the history of past PSN Black Friday deals in this post to get an idea of when they usually begin.
If I’m a current subscriber, will I be eligible for the PS+ discount?
That’s not confirmed yet. However, in previous years, current subscribers were not eligible for the discounted PS+ offer, so it’s best to wait for official details before purchasing.
Will I be able to stack PS+ subscriptions during the sale?
See the previous answer.
Are the Black Friday deals the same in every region?
Not always. Start and end dates, as well as discounts, can vary by region or country, so keep an eye on your local PlayStation Store for the most accurate information.
I'm in the US and my Essentials subscription expired yesterday and the only deals I am being offered are upgrading to Extra or Premium. Even with those deals being pretty good, I don't want to spend that much because I only play a few online games. Way to be Sony Sony.
Update: I ended up paying for a one month Essentials subscription on Friday 11/28 and then checked the Black Friday deal again today 11/30 on the PS mobile app and, because Sony be Sony, the 20% discount was magically there! I was then able to buy it.
I do not know if I needed to be a current subscriber to get the 20% discount offer, but I suspect that is the case. I used the 1 month sub for about 2 days before I checked again and found the 20% offer on the PS mobile app, so if you’re not seeing it right away, check back on the mobile app or PlayStation website the next day.
Also, it looks like the 1 year sub automatically starts after my 1 month expires, so there shouldn’t be any issues with losing out on the 1 month sub.
One last thing. This was my experience. It may not work for you. Please do not blame me if it doesn’t lol.
