The PlayStation 5 made its debut back in November 2020, but it was almost impossible to find in stock for years due to pandemic-related supply chain issues. Now, however, you can not only find PS5s in stock, but you can even snag one on sale — just in time for any last-minute Christmas shopping. A few PS5 bundles are discounted from $559.99 to just $499 on Amazon and Walmart, including ones that come with Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 and another that includes Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III. As of writing, both can be delivered before Christmas.

Considering that both games cost $69 right now, this is a pretty amazing deal: You’re essentially getting a brand-new game for $10 with the purchase of your new PS5. Plus, these bundle packages make great gifts, as your giftee can start playing right away.

The disc-compatible PlayStation console features support for up to 120 fps and a 120Hz output for 4K displays. This means you’ll never miss a beat when you game. There is Ray Tracing too which will create true-to-life images for an immersive gaming experience. The included DualSense wireless controller offers haptic feedback and features adaptive triggers so you can get tactile feedback from your favorite games. The console itself also features backward compatibility, which means you can play any PlayStation game you already own — saving you from starting over with your gaming library.

We also like that these bundle deals are brand-new, buzzy video games (instead of dated, less popular ones). Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 is already one of the biggest games of the year, showcasing an incredible new Spider-Man navigation system that lets you freely swing through NYC. The game recently garnered eight nominations for the upcoming The Game Awards, including a Game of the Year nod.

You’ll want to shop the PlayStation 5 bundles as soon as possible — especially if you need one for gifting — as they’ll likely go back up to their regular price soon.
