Amazon has started its Prime Big Deals Days 2023 sale, with deep discounts across all product categories, including gaming consoles, PCs and laptops, as well as gaming accessories and other hardware.

The sale features great gaming products at up to 40-50% off, including PC and console accessories like headsets, keyboards, mice and controllers. A refurbished Xbox Series X or a “used like new” PSVR2 could save you quite a bit, if you don’t mind a few minor scratches or opened packaging.

High-speed SSDs that are compatible with the PS5 have significantly dropped in price since the current-gen console's launch, so now's the best time to expand that very limited 667.2GB internal storage on Sony's console.

If you’re looking for the best Amazon Prime Big Deal Days 2023 video game deals for physical releases across PlayStation, Xbox and Nintendo Switch consoles, we have you covered with a guide, too.
