🎮 PlayStation, Multi-platformSave On Limited Edition PS5 Consoles, Game, And More – The Best PS5 Deals Of The Week (May 15, 2026)
This week is a mixed bag for deals, as many of the discounts from previous weeks are starting to disappear. There are still dozens of games on sale, however, including old hits like Alan Wake 2(https://www.amazon.com/Alan-Wake-2-Deluxe-PlayStation-5/dp/B0D6FP8Q4J?tag=gamespot-promos-20), God of War: Ragnarok(https://www.tkqlhce.com/click-100770772-15324736?sid=subidvalue&url=https://www.antonline.com/Sony/Computers/SoftwareProducts/GamingSoftware/1476560), and Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown(https://redirect.viglink.com/?key=fbff19622bfc4d759c94ca50d964e98d&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.bestbuy.com%2Fproduct%2Fprince-of-persia-the-lost-crown-standard-edition-playstation-5%2FJ3ZY37HY79), making it a good time to finally start attacking your backlog. The same is true for accessories, with a handful of price cuts disappearing, though enticing DualSense and headset deals are still active. Folks in the market for a new PS5 will want to snag the Ghost of Yotei Gold Limited Edition Bundle(https://redirect.viglink.com/?key=fbff19622bfc4d759c94ca50d964e98d&u=https%3A%2F%2Fdirect.playstation.com%2Fen-us%2Fbuy-consoles%2Fplaystation5-console-ghost-of-yotei-black-limited-edition-bundle-model-group-slim) for $600. With Sony's price hike in full effect, this is arguably the best way to pick up a PS5 this month. Along with a console adorned with exclusive Ghost of Yotei graphics and a disc drive, you'll get a similarly styled DualSense and a copy of the game. There are dozens of other great discounts on PlayStation games and hardware available, and to help you find them, here's a look at the best PS5 deals this week. Best PS5 Game Deals !(https://www.gamespot.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/4694772-mixcollage-13-may-2026-08-13-am-3744.jpg) If you missed out on Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown(https://redirect.viglink.com/?key=fbff19622bfc4d759c94ca50d964e98d&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.bestbuy.com%2Fproduct%2Fprince-of-persia-the-lost-crown-standard-edition-playstation-5%2FJ3ZY37HY79), now is a good time to add it to your collection. The metroidvania is just $15 (was $40), and it earned a 9/10 in our review(https://www.gamespot.com/reviews/prince-of-persia-the-lost-crown-review-crowning-achievement/1900-6418167/). Along with colorful graphics and plenty of secrets to unlock across its many areas, you'll encounter some truly challenging platforming segments, mind-bending puzzles, and enemies that require both quick wits and planning to defeat. Octopath Traveler 0(https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FKPD1TF9?tag=gamespot-promos-20) is just a few bucks away from its all-time low price at $39 (was $50), and if you're seeking a nuanced RPG with an exciting storyline, it's an easy recommendation. There's no need to have played any of the other games in the series, as it serves as a prequel. With a complex combat system and relaxing town-building mechanics, most players have found it to be an excellent entry in the franchise. Another excellent RPG is also cheap right now, with Metaphor: ReFantazio(https://www.amazon.com/Metaphor-ReFantazio-Launch-PlayStation-5/dp/B0D2FY9H73?tag=gamespot-promos-20&tag=gamespot-buybutton-20) listed for $26.49 (was $70). Crafted by the same folks responsible for Persona, it gets you a striking art style, memorable characters, and a constant sense of adventure. Our review(https://www.gamespot.com/reviews/metaphor-refantazio-review-everybody-wants-to-rule-the-world/1900-6418297/) gave it an elusive 10/10. Folks on the hunt for something that'll get their adrenaline pumping, Diablo 4(https://www.amazon.com/Diablo-IV-PlayStation-5/dp/B0BPPPPYK7?tag=gamespot-promos-20&tag=gamespot-buybutton-20) is $40 (was $70). The game has seen massive improvements over the years, and it's arguably in the best spot it's ever been. Keep in mind that this is just the base game--if you're hoping to enjoy the Lord of Hatred expansion, you'll need to drop extra cash. But since the base game has tons of content to enjoy (and a new season recently began), you shouldn't feel like you're missing out on much. Other good deals include Astro Bot(https://redirect.viglink.com/?key=fbff19622bfc4d759c94ca50d964e98d&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.walmart.com%2Fip%2FAstro-Bot-PlayStation-5%2F6261168812%3Fwmlspartner%3Dwlpa%26selectedSellerId%3D0%26wl13%3D1045%26gclsrc%3Daw.ds%26adid%3D22222222277626116881211775502866912420145346%26wl0%3D%26wl1%3Dg%26wl2%3Dc%26wl3%3D501107745824%26wl4%3Dpla-394283752452%26wl5%3D9194061%26wl6%3D%26wl7%3D%26wl8%3D%26wl9%3Dpla%26wl10%3D8175035%26wl11%3Dlocal%26wl12%3D6261168812%26veh%3DsemLIA%26gclsrc%3Daw.ds%26gadsource%3D1%26gadcampaignid%3D12420145346%26gbraid%3D0AAAAADmfBIoUp5tzcTyrTlg8AyYqYB7M%26gclid%3DCjwKCAjwwJzPBhBREiwAJfHRnTRERZK4VK-SlxKwC0C5DOf-HH2ZTNwQIOeYLUnF8JtWQ468doMbdhoCIKUQAvDBwE) for $45.49 (was $60), Daemon X Machina: Titanic Scion(https://www.amazon.com/Daemon-Machina-Titanic-Standard-PlayStation-5/dp/B0F3Y142HG?tag=gamespot-promos-20) for $30 (was $50), Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2(https://www.amazon.com/Kingdom-Come-Deliverance-II-PlayStation-5/dp/B0D2FGZ3HF?tag=gamespot-promos-20&tag=gamespot-buybutton-20) for $40 (was $60), Rise of the Ronin(https://redirect.viglink.com/?key=fbff19622bfc4d759c94ca50d964e98d&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.bestbuy.com%2Fproduct%2Frise-of-the-ronin-playstation-5%2FJXHQ3CCGK8) for $45 (was $70), and Hitman: World of Assassination(https://www.amazon.com/HITMAN-World-Assassination-PlayStation-5/dp/B0C4G7FHR8?tag=gamespot-promos-20) for $20 (was $30). And if you're excited for the new Mortal Kombat movie, Mortal Kombat 1(https://redirect.viglink.com/?key=fbff19622bfc4d759c94ca50d964e98d&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.bestbuy.com%2Fproduct%2Fmortal-kombat-1-standard-edition-playstation-5%2FJ3KZRPGTKK) is on sale for $20 (was $30). Fans of SpongeBob also shouldn't miss the steep discount on SpongeBob: Battle for Bikini Bottom (Shiny Edition)(https://redirect.viglink.com/?key=fbff19622bfc4d759c94ca50d964e98d&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.bestbuy.com%2Fproduct%2Fspongebob-squarepants-battle-for-bikini-bottom-rehydrated-shiny-edition-playstation-5-playstation-4%2FJ3L7FXTSCX), as it comes with collectibles such as wallstickers, lithographs, a pair of socks, and a hilarious SpongeBob statue for $60 ($150).

Considering these controllers rarely go on sale, that price cut could be the best deal we see for quite a while. The deal has been around for a few weeks now, and it's unclear when Target will end the promo. If you don't mind third-party gamepads, the Razer Raiju V3 Pro Wireless Controller(https://redirect.viglink.com/?key=fbff19622bfc4d759c94ca50d964e98d&u=https%3A%2F%2Felectronics.woot.com%2Foffers%2Frazer-raiju-v3-pro-wireless-controller%3Fcjdata%3DMXxOfDB8WXww%26ref%3Dwcntwp044%26utmmedium%3Daffiliate%26utmcampaign%3DCJ%26cjevent%3D309abbbe495911f181f800180a1ebadf%26utmsource%3DFandom%2C%2BInc.%26utmterm%3D309abbbe495911f181f800180a1ebadf) is $155 (was $220), and it's a popular alternative to the premium DualSense Edge. Equipped with four removable back buttons and two claw grip bumpers that are fully mappable, it's great for accessibility purposes and competitive gaming. Make sure to clip the coupon on the Amazon store page to get the full discount. If you need an affordable headset, the Razer BlackShark V2 X Gaming Headset(https://www.amazon.com/Razer-BlackShark-V2-Gaming-Headset/dp/B086PKMZ21?tag=gamespot-promos-20) is $40 (was $60). It gets you reliable 50mm drivers, plush earcups, and support for surround sound, though it doesn't feel or sound quite as premium as its high-end competitors. You'll also have to put up with a wired connection. Still, for just $30, you're getting a headset that'll perform admirably. The Sony Inzone H9 Gaming Headset(https://www.amazon.com/Sony-Wireless-Canceling-Over-Ear-Headphones/dp/B0CJH3DJ36?tag=gamespot-promos-20) has a nice offer this week, too, with Amazon discounting it to $198 (was $330). Built for PC and PS5, it supports 360-degree spatial sound, uses mutliple microphones to improve its noise-canceling skills, and is built with both a plush headband and earcups for support. Give it a look if you game across both platforms, as it's a highly rated choice. Grown tired of your PS5's bland appearance?

🎮 PlayStation, Multi-platformNew PS5 Update Is Out Now, And It Doesn't Even Mention Stability
A new firmware update has begun rolling out for PS5 consoles, and the big surprise is that it doesn't add more system stability. Version 26.03-13.20.00 brings more of your mom's favorite WhatsApp language to the console, as you can now use an expanded selection of emojis as message reactions. On top of that, Sony says it also added improvements to messages on "some" screens. PS5 Version 26.03-13.20.00 Update Notes - We've added more emojis that you can use for message reactions - We've improved the messages and usability on some screens And that's it--no system stability notes or any other significant updates, just more emojis and better messages. Previous firmware updates(https://www.gamespot.com/articles/new-ps5-update-is-out-now-actually-does-a-lot-for-once/1100-6538822/) introduced more substantial upgrades to PS5 consoles, like an enhanced version(https://www.gamespot.com/articles/ps5-pros-upgraded-pssr-is-rolling-out-today-here-are-the-first-games-getting-it/1100-6538811/) of PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution for the PS5 Pro, a new Showcase Mode, and improved system software performance. Back in January, the Version 26.01-12.60.00(https://www.gamespot.com/articles/new-ps5-update-is-out-now-does-what-you-expect-and-more/1100-6537714/) update also introduced the usual round of stability enhancements alongside a few extra improvements to friend widgets, general usability, and messages.

🎮 PlayStation, Multi-platformShuhei Yoshida Sees Gaming's Future As Indie, Not "Generic" AAA Games
PlayStation icon Shuhei Yoshida(https://www.gamespot.com/articles/former-playstation-exec-shuhei-yoshida-says-he-was-fired-after-top-boss-asked-him-to-do-ridiculous-things/1100-6539492/) estimates that each year, he plays at least 250 games, if not more. For him, it's a bit of a double-edged sword. According to Yoshida, the best part about playing that many games is that he gets to see a slew of different titles evolve over the course of their development. The downside, however, is that playing that many games in a year means very few of them can be AAA games. "I no longer play AAA games because they take too much time," he says. Indie Gaming Versus AAA One of the last AAA games Yoshida played was Ghost of Yotei(https://www.gamespot.com/gallery/ghost-of-yotei-tips-beginners-guide/2900-7084/), spurred by his previous involvement with Ghost of Tsushima, but he wasn't able to finish it. He's since moved on to Nioh 3 after loving the previous two installments, but it's simply hard to find the time. Though he makes occasional time-consuming exceptions for AAA titles, Yoshida is a strong believer in indie game superiority because of their firmer creative resolve. "You can feel the game developer's vision in indie games because indie game developers don't have to ask for approvals," Yoshida says. "I used to work at a large company at PlayStation, and even though we are allowed to have the developer and studio propose what games to make, there are many people involved."

!(https://assetsio.gnwcdn.com/diablo-4-lord-of-hatred-keyart-no-logo-1.jpeg?width=690&quality=85&format=jpg&auto=webp) Diablo 4: Lord of Hatred(https://www.vg247.com/games/diablo-4-lord-of-hatred) has, without question, been one of my most anticipated releases of 2026. Diablo 4(https://www.vg247.com/games/diablo-iv) is likely my most played game ever by sheer hour count, so it’s easy to see why this expansion is so high up on my list.
