Elden Ring for $19.99

Elden Ring is now just $19.99 on PS5, PS4, and Xbox as part of the Black Friday sales. With a massive $40 drop from its original $59.99 price, it’s easily a top pick and one of the best sellers of the season so far—don’t wait too long, as it could sell out due to its popularity.

For the ultimate Elden Ring experience, the Shadow of the Erdtree Edition, which includes the base game and DLC, is on sale for $49.99 at Best Buy, down from $79.99. This $30 discount is $10 better than Amazon at the time of writing and the best deal for the full package. It’s another must-have Black Friday offer for fans and newcomers alike.

Metaphor: ReFantazio for $49.99

Metaphor: ReFantazio recently earned a nomination for 'Best Game' at the Game of the Year Awards, is now available for $49.99 on PS5 and Xbox—$20 off its original price. Whether you’ve been waiting for a sale or planning to grab it as a gift, this is likely the best deal before Christmas.

In our 9/10 review, Michael Higham praised the game, saying: “There’s a certain familiarity in Metaphor: ReFantazio, but Atlus takes the principles of its already excellent RPGs and refines them in a way that effortlessly ushers you through its brutal, and sometimes beautiful, new fantasy world.”

Xbox 1TB Expansion Card for $99.99

Xbox 1TB expansion cards are now just $99.99 during the Black Friday sales—a historic low. These storage cards from Western Digital and Seagate have typically dropped to around $125 during past sale events, rarely going any cheaper. While occasional deeper discounts have appeared on Woot, they often sell out almost instantly.

This year, Amazon has set the bar by slashing the price of the C50 1TB Storage Expansion Card by $50, making it just $99.99. It’s easily the best Xbox storage deal of the Black Friday season so far. While Amazon and other retailers haven’t matched the price yet, they may do so soon. Be sure to act fast if you’re interested, as demand could lead to quick sellouts at Best Buy.
