PS5 Pro console on a wooden table with DualSense controller

November has barely begun and alreadyBlack Friday PS5 dealsare started to crop up left, right and center. Yet even with the plethora of deals available, the question on everyone’s lips is will the PS5 Pro get a discount this Black Friday? Even though Sony’s latest pixel-pushing beast landed so close to the biggest shopping event of the year, it’s very unlikely we’ll see its MSRP shift this November. Its release date likely has more to do with being an appealing gift idea for the festive season than anything else.

For those without the cash to burn, that’s not the best news. But the hefty $699 / £699 price tag, that’s a whole $200 more than the original model, likely won’t see any major discounts until sometime in 2025. Both the disc and digital versions of the PS5 Slim, didn’t see their first major discount until four months after its November 2023 launch date. Even then, these deals first originated in Europe, where lucky UK fans had access to £70 off.

Will there be PS5 Pro disc drive deals this Black Friday?

If you’re going to be picking up physical games this Black Friday for your PS5 Pro, you’re going to need to knowwhere to buy the PS5 disc drive. Unlike the original and Slim models, the PS5 Pro is only available in digital form. Instead, Sony expects physical game fanatics to spend a further $79.99 / £99.99 to play physical games on the brand-new console.The PS5 Pro released on November 7, and as you can probably guess the disc drive isn’t the easiestPS5 accessoryto track down right now. As of typing, the add-on isn’t unavailable to purchase on our go-to sites from Best Buy and Amazon. Walmart has a listing for the drive but a questionable $139.95, almost $60 more than its MSRP.So far the disc drive itself hasn’t been the center of any Black Friday deals. But it’s hard to track down even at full price, so any Black Friday discounts that may arise aren’t gonna be of any help.

There’s always the PS5 Slim

PS5 Slim on a dark blue background

We’re all tech nerds here so we totally get if you want the newest and shiniest console right now. I try to put off getting upgrades myself, especially for consoles I already own. But my original PS5 is definitely worse for wear and I’d be lying if I haven’t nearly added a PS5 Pro to my Amazon basket on several occasions.But if the unavailability of the official disc drive, and lack of Black Friday discounts for the Pro is putting you off, there’s always the PS5 Slim. The disc and digital editions of the Slim version saw some price cuts of their own just before the PS5 Pro entered the picture. The disc edition received an 11% discount, taking the price down to £424.99, whereas the digital only version had 13% off making it just £229. The prices have since returned to normal, and as you can guess from the lack of my inclusion of dollar signs, they were also just for UK gaming fans. Regardless, it could be a good sign for the rest of November. It’s been little over a year since the Slim launched, so there’s been ample time for it to come down in price.

Picking up the Slim model of the PS5 won’t give you the graphic fidelity and performance improvements of the PS5 Pro. However, it does give you a big 2TB storage upgrade, which is the exact same size SSD as the newer console. If that’s not enough space you can always make the most of the currentBlack Friday PS5 SSD and hard drive dealshappening right now as the Slim console is just as easily upgradable as the version before it.
