After weeks of retailers releasing Black Friday ads to build anticipation for the event, GameStop has finally revealed its hand. With less than a week until Black Friday sales officially begin, GameStop has released a flyer for its “early deals,” which will be available for a full week.

Nintendo Switch offers are noticeably missing from GameStop’s first round of Black Friday deals. While we do expect to see Switch deals at GameStop during Black Friday, don’t anticipate any significant discounts on the new improved Switch model or the Switch Lite. Instead, most retailers are offering Nintendo’s official Black Friday 2019 bundle: the launch-model Switch (without improved battery life) with a digital copy of Mario Kart 8 Deluxe for $300. According to Nintendo, GameStop should also have some first-party Switch games for $40 each and discounts on Switch accessories like the Poke Ball Plus.

Keep in mind GameStop has more deals going live next Wednesday, plus limited-time deals that will likely launch on Black Friday and Cyber Monday. We probably won’t know what those later deals are until they go live, but in the meantime, you’ll have access to some of GameStop’s best console deals starting this Sunday, November 24. Check out GameStop’s full Black Friday schedule below, and read on for the best Black Friday deals we know about so far.

---

PS4 Pro (Glacier White Edition) – $300

PS4 Pro Glacier White | $300 ($400)

The powerful PS4 Pro is on sale for an excellent price during Black Friday, selling for $300 rather than $400. GameStop’s offer includes the stunning Glacier White model, which comes with a matching controller.

---

DualShock 4 wireless controllers – $39

DualShock 4 Wireless Controllers (various colors) | $39 each ($60-$65)

PS4 controllers will be $39 each at GameStop during Black Friday, the same price as at Walmart. Other stores will have them for $40 during Black Friday week, but colors available may vary between retailers. GameStop’s flyer includes the new Fall 2019 colors shown above, which normally go for $65 each.

---

PS Plus one-year membership – $45

PlayStation Plus 12-month membership | $45 ($60)

The official PlayStation Black Friday offer for PS Plus is $45 for a yearly membership. That’s not quite as low as we’d hoped, but if you need to renew your membership (remember PS Plus subscriptions do stack), this is still a nice deal to snag.

---

PSVR bundle with five games – $200

PlayStation VR Mega Pack | $200 ($300)

This is the best PSVR deal we’ve seen in a long time. For $200, you’ll get the PSVR headset and PlayStation Camera along with five of the system’s best games.

---

PSVR bundle with Blood & Truth and Everbody’s Golf – $250

PlayStation VR bundle with Blood & Truth, Everybody’s Golf VR | $250 ($350)

This bundle is slightly pricier than other PSVR bundles during Black Friday, but that’s because it comes with two PlayStation Move motion controllers (which can cost as much as $100 a pack).

---

PlayStation Gold Wireless Headset with Fortnite content – $70

Fortnite Neo Versa Bundle With PlayStation Gold Wireless Headset | $70 ($100)

The discount on this PlayStation Gold wireless headset isn’t exceptional on its own, but if you’re a Fortnite fan, the included Neo Versa bundle is a nice perk that comes with the Epic Neo Versa Outfit, Epic Neo Phrenzy Back Bling, and 2,000 V-Bucks.

---

Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order Xbox One X bundle – $200

Xbox One S bundle with Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order Deluxe Edition | $200 ($300)

Xbox One X special-edition bundle with NBA 2K20 | $350 ($500)

Quite a few Xbox One X bundles will be on sale for Black Friday, but this GameStop-exclusive, special-edition Xbox One X with NBA 2K20 has to be the prettiest with its paint splash design.

---

Xbox One S All-Digital Edition – $150

Xbox One S All-Digital Edition | $150 ($250)

Not a fan of buying physical games? Then the Xbox One S All-Digital Edition was made for you, but please be aware there’s no disc drive, removing the option entirely to play physical games or Blu-ray discs. The bundle comes with three games: Sea of Thieves, Minecraft, and bonus content for Fortnite: Battle Royale–2,000 V-Bucks and the Legendary Rogue Spider Knight outfit. At just $150, the All-Digital Edition is a much more appealing offer for primarily digital gamers.

---

Xbox One wireless controllers – $10 off

Xbox Wireless Controllers (various colors) | $10 off

Multiple Xbox controllers will be on sale for $10 off during Black Friday, including the special-edition Gears 5 controller for $65 (previously $75) and other colors for $60 (previously $70 each). It’s worth noting Microsoft’s official Black Friday sale is advertising Xbox controllers for “up to $20 off,” so you may want to compare prices before grabbing one of these from GameStop.

GameStop in-store offer on collectibles and apparel

In-store deal: Get 25% everything you can stuff in this bag

It’s no surprise that Marvel’s streaming TV show, Runaways, is ending considering Disney+ is primed and ready to dominate the superhero streaming market next year with shows like The Falcon And The Winter Soldier and WandaVision. The news of the show’s imminent finale was confirmed yesterday via Variety. But that doesn’t mean Runaways is going to go down quietly–quite the contrary, it would seem. Judging by the brand-new trailer released for the show’s third and final season, Runaways plans to go down swinging.

The final season will also feature a major crossover with Freeform’s Cloak And Dagger, another of Marvel’s streaming TV shows that is wrapping things up in the shadow of Disney+. Tandy and Tyrone will be joining the ragtag Runaways crew as they take on Morgan Le Fay (Elizabeth Hurley) and, by the sound of it, deal with a potential traitor in their midst. It looks like the merging of teams may not go entirely smoothly, also–at least if Nico (Lyrica Okano) and Tandy’s (Olivia Holt) reaction to one another is any indication.

The final season of Runaways premieres on Hulu on December 13.

Black Friday 2019 hits next week, which means it’s time to start thinking about which stores will have deals on the things you’re shopping for this holiday season. A few stores have already announced their Black Friday deals, and Amazon has gotten a bit ahead of the competition with its Happy HoliDeals sale.

As with Prime Day, Amazon’s holiday deals page includes a mix of Lightning Deals–which are only available for a limited time–and longer-term deals that should be available throughout the duration of this first round of deals (or while supplies last). The early holiday sale runs through this Thursday, November 21. Then, starting Friday, November 22, Amazon’s Black Friday sale will officially begin. The week of deals will run right up until November 29, Black Friday itself.

Unfortunately, Amazon is keeping things vague in terms of the actual deals that will be offered, and the retailer’s press release mentions only discounts rather than actual sale prices. We already knew Amazon will be offering Nintendo’s official deals, including the Switch console bundle (older model) with a digital copy of Mario Kart 8 Deluxe for $300. We also know Amazon will have select Switch games for up to 30% off and Joy-Cons for a lower price than its competitors. The announcement also confirms Amazon will have the holiday PS4 and Xbox One console bundles; otherwise, the retailer is only teasing discounts on gaming laptops and monitors, the Oculus Rift S, Bose headphones, and other tech as well as numerous other deals across other categories.

Amazon’s Black Friday 2019 schedule

• November 22-29: Official Black Friday week of deals begins
• November 28-29, December 2: One-time-only deals will launch throughout the day on Thanksgiving Day, Black Friday, and Cyber Monday

Starting Nov. 22: Amazon’s Black Friday week of deals

After the first round of deals has ended on November 22 (or while supplies last), another batch of deals will be posted in the week leading up to Black Friday itself on November 29. In addition to the official gaming console bundles and accessories from Xbox, Nintendo, and PS4, the online retailer has confirmed a wide range of Amazon devices will be on sale starting with several tablets on November 22, including the Fire HD 10 Tablet for $100 ($50 off) and the Kindle Paperwhite for $85 ($45 off). We’ve included the full list of device deals and pricing below, but please note these prices will not be live until their respective sale date.

PS4 Slim (1TB) with God of War, Horizon Zero Dawn: Complete Edition, and The Last of Us Remastered | $200

Another official PlayStation offer, the PS4 Slim holiday bundle is a great way to get your hands on some of the system’s best games. The 1TB console will $200 and comes bundled with Marvel’s Spider-Man, Horizon Zero Dawn: Complete Edition, and God of War. It’ll be available at Amazon, Best Buy, Target, and other retailers.

---

Nintendo Switch bundle with Mario Kart 8 Deluxe | $300

No, we haven’t entered a time machine and gone back to Black Friday 2018. Nintendo is offering the same Nintendo Switch holiday bundle that was available last year. For $300, you can get the Switch and a digital copy of Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. The potential snag with this bundle? It’s the launch model Switch, which means you won’t get the upgraded battery that comes with the newer Switch model released a few months back. That said, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is an incredible game that normally sells for about $50.

---

Nintendo Switch Joy-Cons (Gray or Neon Red/Blue) | $53.60

Nintendo’s pricey Joy-Con controllers will be down to $60 on Black Friday at many retailers, but if Amazon’s press release is correct, each pair of Joy-Cons will be available for $53.60, a full 33% off rather than 25%. It appears that only the original gray or neon red and blue Joy-Cons will be eligible for this awesome deal. Nevertheless, if you’re gifting a Switch this holiday or want to have some multiplayer fun at your holiday party, you shouldn’t pass up this deal.

---

Fire HD 8 | $50 ($80)

Starting November 22, Amazon is kicking off its first wave of Black Friday deals with the Fire HD 8 tablet for $50.
