It's also worth noting that Sony has announced it will add three games to PlayStation Now from 7th April: Marvel's Avengers, Borderlands 3 and The Long Dark. Nice. And don't forget: there's also some great PS Plus deals around this month (trust us, you don't need to pay full price).

With demand for PS5 stock high, making a saving won't be easy.

Best PS5 and PS5 Digital Edition deals
Best PS5 accessory deals
PS5 DualSense Wireless Controller
The PS5 only comes with one controller in the box, so a second controller is a must for those who want to get stuck into multi-player gaming. The PS5 DualSense (£59.99, $69.99, AU$109) boasts improved haptic feedback and adaptive triggers that deliver a more immersive experience. So while you can use the PS4 DualShock with the PS5, it doesn't offer the new features of the PS5 controller. We've listed today's best PS5 controller prices below.
PS5 Pulse 3D Wireless Headset
Not only does the PS5 offer 4K HDR gaming, it also has 3D audio. But if you want to enjoy it – and you do, because it's one of the console's best features – you'll need one of these. The Pulse 3D Wireless Headset launched at £89.95 ($99.99, AU$159) but we've listed today's cheapest deals below. Not convinced? Then you might like to have a peek at our pick of the best gaming headsets for all consoles.
PS5 HD Camera
This new camera peripheral (£50, $60, AU$100) lets you add yourself to gameplay videos or video chat during multiplayer marathons. It works with the DualSense controller's 'Create' button, so you can jump into the PS5's video editing functions. You can actually use the old PS4 camera with the PS5, but the new PS5 HD camera ups the quality. For the best prices on this handy accessory, cast your eyes over the box below.
PS5 Media Remote
Want to use your PS5 as an entertainment hub? The PlayStation 5 Media Remote (£24.99, $29.99, AU$49) is a handy remote that will help you navigate everything from Netflix to 4K Blu-ray discs. If you want to use your PS5 as a media streamer, it's a must-have and doesn't cost the earth. Here's our pick of today's best Sony PS5 Media Remote deals.
PS5 DualSense Charging Station
This nifty dock allows you to charge up two wireless DualSense controllers simultaneously, so you need never be powerless. It's become a bit of a hot buy and sold out ahead of the PS5 launch. It's easier to come by these days, and most big retailers have stock. Fancy a PS5 DualSense Charging Station (£24.99, $29.99, AU$49)? You'll find all the cheapest prices below.
When will more PS5 deals show up?
Getting your hands on a PS5 is tricky at the minute. Game, Currys PC World, Amazon US, Amazon UK, BT and EE are all currently sold out, but they're tipped to drop more stock as soon as this week. (Here's all the latest pointers on where to buy a PS5).
As for the best PS5 deals, the official DualSense Controller is currently in stock at Amazon UK and at a discounted price of £59) while Currys has the much sought-after Pulse 3D Wireless PS5 headset for £89.99.
Meanwhile, Walmart is offering FIFA21 for $60 $19.88 – it's the PS4 version but it includes a free upgrade to the PS5 version. Given that most PS5 titles will run you at least £60 ($60, AU$100), that's a truly awesome deal. There's also the PS5 edition of Madden NFL MVP edition for $100 $59.99.
Meanwhile, Best Buy members can get $10 in rewards when they purchase PS5 titles such as Far Cry 6 and Watch Dogs: Legion. Not a Best Buy member? It's free to join.
And, of course, there are plenty of deals to be had on the best gaming TVs. Sony has even certified selected models 'Ready for PS5', thus giving you an even better reason to splash out on a new screen.
Fancy a freebie? Sony is currently offering gamers a 7-day free trial of PlayStation Now, which includes access to the PS5 PlayStation Plus Collection (a selection of 20 games that had previously released on PS4, including God of War and The Last of Us: Remastered). We've also spotted some cheap PlayStation Plus deals lurking around.
So, although getting your hands on a PS5 console is currently a bit of a mission, we're expecting more and more PS5 deals to show up.
Of course, you can still find plenty of PS4 deals and Xbox One deals, if you're fed up with waiting on PS5 stock or Xbox Series X availability.
