Costco has announced that members can soon purchase a PS5 Slim Disc Drive bundle with additional DualSense controller for $479.99 during the annual Black Friday weekend sales. Costco shared its Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals a week in advance, with the PS5 Slim joining other gadgets like the Meta Quest 3S VR headset in the retailer's seasonal deals.
The upcoming PS5 Slim bundle discount was revealed a month before Black Friday. Costco's upcoming sale also comes at a good time for consumers following Sony's PS5 price changes in the US. Due to the Trump administration's tariffs on goods from various countries, including China, the price of the PS5 Slim disc and digital editions rose to $549 and $499, respectively, while the PS5 Pro jumped to $749. The $50 increase does not currently affect any PS5 controllers and accessories, although they may change.
Costco reveals PS5 Black Friday bundle deal
However, shoppers looking to pick up a new PS5 this holiday season will have at least one deal to consider. Costco will be selling a PS5 Slim Disc Edition bundle that includes an additional DualSense controller for $479.99 during the Black Friday weekend from November 28th to December 1st. The deal will also have an early start on November 21st. However, all of Costco's deals are exclusive to customers with Costco Gold Star or Executive memberships, which carry an annual fee of $1,300 and $65, respectively. Purchases can be made in-store or online while supplies last. The bundle will also be significantly cheaper than the current $599.99 in-store price that Costco is offering. Along with the PS5 Slim bundle, other Costco Black Friday deals include $50 off the Meta Quest 3S 128GB VR headset, bringing it down to $249, and an MSI 27-inch 1440p monitor for $150.
Customers looking to get an Xbox Series X/S on Black Friday at Costco are out of luck. In September, Costco began clearing out its inventory of Xbox systems, and a Costco spokesperson confirmed that the move was a “business decision” by the retailer. Costco has clarified that it has no plans to restock the Xbox Series X/S going forward, but that it will focus on maintaining an adequate supply of PlayStation and Nintendo consoles.
With games like Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 and Where Winds Meet arrives in November, and major hits like Marvel's Wolverine and Grand Theft Auto 6 set for 2026, the PS5 lineup shows no signs of slowing down. It remains to be seen how many PS5 consoles Costco will sell this holiday shopping season.
