PlayStation takes $40 off refurbished PS5 and controller bundles
IGN flags the deal, which runs until November 5, 2026, as a cheaper way to get a console before GTA VI's November launch.
BriefHeistNotes News Desk·
IGN's Robert Anderson has rounded up a PlayStation offer aimed at people buying a console ahead of GTA VI. Buy a Certified Refurbished PS5 and a Recertified DualSense controller in the same transaction, and $40 comes off automatically at checkout. No code is needed.
According to IGN, the bundle costs $518 with the Digital Edition and $568 with the disc model. Refurbished consoles already sit $100 below the new $599 and $649 prices. The controller is normally $59, or $64 for colourways such as Sterling Silver and Volcanic Red, so Anderson argues the deal works out as a cheap second pad rather than a big console discount. The offer ends on November 5, 2026. IGN notes that GTA VI is scheduled for November 19, 2026.
Anderson also predicts there won't be "any significant console deals" around Black Friday, and suggests buyers get a console sooner rather than later. That is his forecast, not anything PlayStation has said. The full deals breakdown is on IGN.
