Plus, check out deals on an Xbox Elite Core controller, grab Xbox Game Pass months before the price goes up, and more. These deals and more below.
Get Elden Ring for $39
I know all of the hype this year has been about Zelda, Final Fantasy, and Diablo, but we can't already forget just how amazing Elden Ring is. FromSoftware's open world take on the Dark Souls formula is still one of the best games ever made, and it's on sale today for $39. You can challenge yourself to conquer the Lands Between, and get ready for the DLC which is coming at some point in the future.
Huge Sale on Square Enix Games at Amazon
Square Enix published a monster number of games last year -- maybe even too many. A lot of those games flew under the radar, and pretty much all of them are on sale today at Amazon. So, check out Switch ports of hits like NieR Automata and Life Is Strange, new entries in the Star Ocean and Valkyrie series, the best Theatrhythm yet, and a lot more.
The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom Is $39.99 for New Shoppers at QVC
Enter Code NEWQVC30 at Checkout, free shipping today only
The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is Nintendo's first $70 game, which may have put off some players out there. If that was you, you're in luck, as you can currently grab Tears of the Kingdom for just 40 bucks at QVC. There's a catch though, as you have to be a new shopper at QVC to take advantage of this deal. But even if you've shopped at QVC before, it's easy enough to just enter an alternate email address. Also, today only, QVC is waiving its usual $6 shipping, so you can take full advantage of the discounted price. Just enter the code NEWQVC30 at checkout.
Get Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes for 50% Off
Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes is a great musou take on the world of Fire Emblem: Three Houses, merging the gameplay of Dynasty Warriors with the world and characters of Nintendo's strategy RPG series. Much like Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity, this game takes an alternate history approach to the events of Three Houses, providing a different take on how the war might have played out. And it does that alongside the most fleshed-out version of Dynasty Warriors combat so far, successfully merging turn-based strategy with mowing down hordes of enemies. It's a great time.
Stack More Xbox Game Pass Ultimate Before the Price Hike
Xbox Game Pass Ultimate is getting a price hike later this year, as a monthly subscription is rising from $14.99 a month to $16.99 a month. It's not too late to stack your subscription a bit to save a few bucks down the road, and you can do so with the Xbox Game Pass Ultimate codes available today at Best Buy.
Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2 Core for 21% Off
The Xbox Elite Core controller is a good choice for those looking for something in between the most basic controller, and the Elite Series 2. It has adjustable tension thumbsticks, a rubberized grip, and shorter hair trigger locks. You can also save up to three custom profiles on the controller and switch between them anytime you want. You can get this controller on sale today for 21% off.
Studio Ghibli: The Complete Works Book Is On Sale
Studio Ghibli: The Complete Works dives into all 26 of the iconic studio's feature films, from classics like Spirited Away and Princess Mononoke to more recent works. The book is entirely in color, giving you an unprecedented look at some of the best animated movies ever made.

65" Hisense U8H 4K Mini LED Gaming TV for $799
HDMI 2.1 for 4K @ 120Hz
If you're in the market for an excellent, future proofed gaming TV but want to keep your budget to under $1K, then take a look at the 2022 65" Hisense U8H TV. Right now it's marked down to only $799 on Amazon, which is the best price we've seen ($40 cheaper than Amazon Prime Day).
The UH8 was Hisense's flagship 2022 TV. It easily competes and surpasses similarly priced models from more well known brands like Samsung, LG, and Sony. The biggest upgrade from 2021 is the new Mini-LED panel, which combined with quantum dot technology (QLED) makes for a markedly better and brighter picture than the previous generation. The Hisense U8H is also an excellent gaming TV. It has a native 120Hz panel and HDMI 2.1 inputs. That means it can pass true 4K @ 120Hz on PS5 and Xbox Series X consoles.
Lexar Play 1TB U3 A2 Micro SDXC Card for $62.99
This Prime Day deal has returned! Amazon is offering a Lexar Play 1TB U3 A2 Micro SDXC card for a mere $62.99. That's far and away the best price we've seen for a 1TB card from a reputable manufacturer for Prime Day. At this price, it's what you would normally pay for a card half that size!
PowerColor AMD Radeon RX 7900 XT Video Card for $749.99
If 4K gaming is what you're after, then there's no way around the fact that you'll need a powerful graphics card. The AMD Radeon RX 7900 XT GPU normally retails for $899.99, but today you can get it for only $749.99. Even better, you also get a free copy of Starfield when it's released.
The Radeon RX 7900 XTX is AMD's second most powerful card. It is more powerful than any previous generation card released, and that goes for NVIDIA's offerings like the RTX 3090 and 3090 Ti as well. It's roughly on par with the new GeForce RTX 4070 Ti. However, at this price it's actually less expensive than the RTX 4070 Ti, even though the 4070 Ti normally commands a lower MSRP.
27" HP OMEN 27Q 2560x1440 165Hz IPS Gaming Monitor for $209.99
This Prime Deal deal is back! The HP OMEN 27" gaming monitor features a 2560x1440 QHD resolution, 1ms response time, 165Hz refresh rate. The IPS panel offers wide viewing angles, great color reproduction (99% sRGB and 95% DCI-P3 color space), and up to 400 nits of peak brightness.
Nintendo Switch OLED for $289.99
Woot is offering a brand new Nintendo Switch OLED gaming console for only $289.99, a healthy $70 discount off the original $360 MSRP. Note that this is a Japanese model. Functionally that doesn't matter for you because all Nintendo Switch consoles are region unlocked, meaning they can be played in any country. However, the documentation will most likely be in Japanese and you're limited to a 90-day Woot warranty instead of the 1-year Nintendo warranty.
Silicon Power 2TB PS5 SSD with Heatsink for $89.07
Includes built-in heatsink!
The Silicon Power XS70 SSD with a preinstalled robust aluminum heatsink costs just under $100. The aluminum heatsink is still slim enough to fit in the PS5 without obstruction. It boasts transfer speeds of up to 7300MB/s read and 6800MB/s write, comfortably faster than the 5500MB/s minimum recommended requirement. It actually performs a little better than the Crucial P5 Plus, the original WD Black SN850, and the Samsung 980 Pro, although that won't make a difference in your PS5.
WD Black SN850X 2TB PS5 SSD with Heatsink $119.99
The WD Black SN850 is the most popular SSD upgrade option for the PS5 console. That's not a surprise, considering WD is the only company that sells an officially licensed PS5 SSD. The SN850X is WD's fastest M.2 SSD current available. It's a generation update from the original SN850 with faster speeds. It easily fulfills all of Sony's requirements, like a minimum read speed of 5,500MB/s, a PCI-Express Gen4x4 interface, and a slim yet effective heatsink that fits within the confines of the PS5 bay.
Alienware Aurora RTX 3070 Gaming PC for $1299.99
The Alienware Aurora R13 config features a liquid cooled Intel Core i7-12700F GPU, GeForce RTX 3070 GPU, 16GB of DDR5-4400MHz RAM, and a 1TB SSD. The Alienware Aurora R14 config features a liquid cooled AMD Ryzen 7 5800X CPU, GeForce RTX 3070 GPU, 16GB of DDR4-3200MHz RAM, and a 1TB SSD. Both systems are powered by a 1000W 80PLUS Platinum power supply.
The RTX 3070 might be a generation old but it's still no slouch. It's faster than RTX 2080 Ti. Compared to the new RTX 40 series GPUs, the 3070 is neck and neck with the RTX 4060 Ti. This is a great card for running games at at up to 1440p. It's also great for running games at 1080p but with higher refresh rates that so many gaming monitors support these days, like 144Hz or even 240Hz.
