It’s Black Friday, which means retailers both digital and physical around the world are discounting their wares to entice people to spend some cash. Everyone is at it, from US outlets such as Walmart and Target, to UK ones like Argos and Game. Digital shopfronts including the PlayStation and Xbox Stores, as well as Nintendo’s Eshop are also slashing prices. It makes sense then that Fortnite, the biggest game around right now, has something for fans to consider too.

Epic Games will be cutting 15 percent off cosmetic bundles all weekend, which means you’ll be able to kit your in-game character out with outfits, Back Bling, Gliders, and Harvesting Tools for less V-Bucks than usual. Currently, the Wukong set is available for 4,080 V-Bucks, as opposed to its usual 4,800 V-Bucks asking price.

For those who are unfamiliar with the Fortnite in-game store, the selection of goods on offer refresh every day. This means that the Wukong bundle will be rotated out for a new bundle that’ll also be 15 percent off. If you’re keen to refresh your Fortnite wardrobe, it’s worth keeping a close eye on the store. Or you can just wait for an update from us on what’s new.

Of course, another good way to get yourself fresh cosmetics is to complete the weekly challenges. We’re currently in Fortnite Season 6, Week 9, which means there’s just one more week left to make the most of the season’s Battle Pass and unlock all its goodies. Week 9’s challenges have been revealed and among them there’s one that takes a little extra time investment, but we’ve put together a guide on the Carnival Clown Board locations to speed up the process.

If you have outstanding challenges from previous weeks, time is running for you to complete them. We’ve got a comprehensive Fortnite Season 6 challenge guide that breaks down how to do all the difficult challenges from each week. Use that and you’ll be done in no time. And when you are done, you’ll have plenty of Battle Stars, an upgraded Battle Pass, and a good selection of cosmetics to your name.

Those looking for more Black Friday discounts have plenty of options. Below you’ll find a list of our Black Friday guides, with some focusing on specific retailers, while others offer the best deals for particular platforms.

Take-Two teased a stealth spy game called Agent as far back as 2007, but after multiple delays and only the faintest hint of updates over the last decade it appeared the project was dead. Now a trademark update seems to confirm that Agent has been permanently taken out of the field.

A status update to the trademark with the US Patent and Trademark Office marks the trademark as abandoned as of November 19, 2018. The status field states plainly, “Abandoned because no Statement of Use or Extension Request timely filed after Notice of Allowance was issued.”

So after being alerted to the expiration, Take-Two chose to quietly let it go. That’s as strong an indication as we’ve seen that the game is truly gone. However, it could also be that Take-Two is planning to rebrand with a different name, or implement some of its stealth-spy mechanics elsewhere. Based on the long period of silence we’ve had, it’s likely the project is simply no longer in active production.

Agent was originally announced as a PlayStation 3 exclusive, and the company was grooming it to be its next Grand Theft Auto. This was before Red Dead Redemption released in 2010 and became Take-Two’s other top-tier open world franchise. The company renewed the trademark in 2013 and again in 2014, and we even got a fresh look at it in 2015. Since then, though, it had gone so quiet that we assumed we’ll never play it.

With Black Friday 2018 now finally upon us, some great discounts are starting to emerge on video games and consoles. One such deal has gone live at Amazon UK, though you’ll have to be quick.

The retail giant is offering an Xbox One X bundle, including Fallout 76 and Red Dead Redemption 2, for just £380. Given the Xbox One X’s RRP is £450 by itself, that’s not a bad deal at all. Be quick, though: the deal is limited in stock. Alternatively, you can sub out RDR2 for Forza Horizon 4 and FIFA 19 for an added £20, though that bundle isn’t back in stock until December 3.

If you’re after the cheapest possible price for an Xbox One X, however, you’re better off going elsewhere. The best price we’ve seen is at John Lewis, which is selling the powerful console in a bundle with Forza Horizon 4 and Forza Motorsport 7 for £360.

The Xbox One X is the latest console released by Microsoft, and the most powerful member of the Xbox One family of devices. For more, check out our comprehensive Xbox One X review, written upon the console’s release in November 2017. If you’re undecided which console to get, Sony has discounted PS4s heavily this Black Friday. Take a look at the best UK PS4 console deals for the best deals we’ve spotted.

For obvious reasons, most retailers have been focusing their advertising efforts on Black Friday in recent weeks. But don’t let the big post-Thanksgiving shopping day overshadow the online shopping day that’s coming right up. November 26 is Cyber Monday, the biggest online shopping day of the year. To encourage customers to come back to retail websites with credit cards in hand, Walmart has announced several of its upcoming Cyber Monday deals already.

The deals will go live at 12 AM ET on November 26 (9 PM PT November 25). Walmart says it will have “thousands more deals” this year than it’s had on Cyber Mondays in the past. It also promises stock will be more plentiful, so customers will be more likely to get the deals they want when they click on them.

Also new this year is Walmart.com’s deal hub, which offers a curated list of the top discounted items across a number of product categories–including video games and media. We still don’t know all of the deals Walmart will offer on Cyber Monday–we’ll have to wait until the big day for that–but the company has released the following list of some of the best sale prices that will be on offer.

Black Friday is here, and the deals are raining down upon consumers. The annual day after Thanksgiving holiday offers up deep discounts on assorted items from numerous retailers. And if you’re the type of person in the market for new movies, there are plenty of deals you’ll want to check out.

The best part about most of these Black Friday movie deals is that the majority of the physical discs–primarily Blu-ray and 4K–come with digital copy codes. So you’ll be buying these movies cheaper than you can get them through a service like Google Play, iTunes, or Vudu, and a physical copy comes with it.

There are quite a few sales to keep you eyes on, including Barnes and Noble‘s sale on 50% off of Criterion Collection Blu-rays. The only Criterion movies shown in the circular were Ingmar Bergman’s Cinema, The Tree of Life, and The Princess Bride, but more will be on sale.

Best Buy has a long list of DVDs, Blu-rays, and 4K movies on sale during the event. You can pick up either of the Super Troopers movies on Blu-ray for $4 each or movies from this past year for cheap: Avengers: Infinity War ($7), Black Panther ($7), Sicario: Day of the Soldado ($6), or Game Night ($8). The best movie deals to come to Best Buy are Star Wars: The Complete Saga (Episodes 1-6) for $20 and The Godfather Collection for $10.

Every store has different operating hours during Thanksgiving, Black Friday, and the weekend following the holiday, so take a look at our store hours guide, and make sure to check with your local retailers as store hours may vary.

Below you’ll find a list of all the movie sales from retailers during Black Friday. Many of these stores don’t have all its discounted movies listed on the various sites, but more will be added to the Black Friday sales.

Black Friday 2018 is finally upon us, bringing with it heaps of savings and eager consumers. For those looking to buy a PlayStation 4 this year, Sony potentially has some good news for you. The platform holder has discounted its PS4 consoles and bundles–as well as some of its games–meaning now could be a good time to pick one up.

Prices for the basic PS4 bundles–which contain the 500 GB Slim console plus your choice of FIFA 19, Red Dead Redemption 2, Call of Duty: Black Ops 4, or Spider-Man–have dropped to £220 for Black Friday. Alternatively, you can get a 1 TB Slim plus FIFA 19 for £270. PS4 Pro consoles have also dropped in price to £330, including your choice of FIFA 19, Red Dead Redemption 2, or Spider-Man.

For those who already own a PS4, there are some decent discounts to be found on games and accessories around the high street. The official Platinum headset is down to £100, for example, while you can grab a DualShock 4 controller for just £35. Alternatively, grab a controller and FIFA 19 for £60.

All these price cuts are official promotions from Sony and will be reflected at participating retailers until December 2 at 11:59 PM or until stocks last. The deals are in addition to Sony’s digital sale, which allows you to grab a bunch of different PS4 games for a lower-than-usual price. For example, football lovers can pick up FIFA 19 for just £34.19 on the PlayStation Store, while shooter fans can get Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 for £42. PlayStation Plus subscriptions are also discounted at £40 for 12 months–a saving of 20%. For more on UK price promotions, check out our coverage of Amazon UK or Game’s Black Friday sales.

Black Friday 2018 is trucking along, and if you’ve had your eye on the recent God of War reboot for PlayStation 4, it has something good in store for you: Amazon is selling the game for just $17. Ordinarily, God of War would retail for $40, which means you’re saving yourself a cool $23–enough to buy another game in a Black Friday sale. [Update] This deal at Amazon is no longer available. However, Walmart has the game for $25, which is still a hefty discount off the standard price.

Developed by Sony Santa Monica, God of War takes place many years after the original series that began on PlayStation 2. Serving as a reboot of sorts, it reconnects players with a Kratos that has changed in many profound ways. The Spartan warrior has put his god slaying days behind him and is now raising a son. However, the consequences of his past begin to catch up with him, and Kratos must deal with these while ensuring his son doesn’t follow in his footsteps.

In GameSpot’s God of War review, Peter Brown awarded the game a 9/10. “[God of War is] a spectacular action game with epic set pieces, big-budget production values, and hard-hitting combat that grows more feverish and impressive as you progress,” he said.

“What may surprise you is how mature its storytelling has become. Like Kratos, God of War recalls the past while acknowledging the need to improve. Everything new it does is for the better, and everything it holds onto benefits as a result. Kratos is no longer a predictable brute. God of War is no longer an old-fashioned action series. With this reboot, it confidently walks a new path that will hopefully lead to more exciting adventures to come.”

Naturally, God of War is a hot property this Black Friday, so numerous retailers are offering discounts on the title. While none come close to the price Amazon is currently offering it, there are options to save money at Target, Walmart, Best Buy, and the PlayStation Store. Check out our full God of War Black Friday deals roundup for more on those. For a broader look at what’s on offer during Black Friday, the list below is handy on zeroing in on the deals you’re after.
