The mid-gen refresh PS5 -- seemingly dubbed the 'slim' model -- is now available to purchase in select markets. It costs $499.99, and as previously anticipated, this new PS5 slim bundle will feature Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 or Spider-Man 2 at no additional charge; offering potential buyers savings of $70 compared to purchasing the items separately. For those interested, you can see the new Call of Duty bundle listed at Best Buy, PS Direct, GameStop, or Target.
Or, for those of you who would prefer to play as Spidey instead, Amazon also currently has the new slim PS5 Spider-Man 2 bundle for only $499.99. You can also consider the 2020 model PS5 bundle instead if that's your preference. Heads up, as well, the slim model's new optional PS5 disc drive needs to connect to the internet to pair it to a console. It also comes with 1TB storage -- up from 825GB in the original versions of the console.
Buyers should consider all of these a Black Friday deal since it includes a console and a new game at a discount price of $499.99. Remember, if you don't want either game included in the bundles, you can also just sell on the digital code for additional savings.
In other Black Friday news, DualSense Controllers have once again dropped to its sale price of $49.99 (see here), a reasonable $20-$25 discount depending on which color variant you choose. Amazon is also putting on some early deals, with its latest Buy 2 Get 1 Free sale that includes a whole bunch of PlayStation games like Cyberpunk 2077, Elden Ring, Mortal Kombat 1, Street Fighter 6, and a slew of others. But, these new PS5 bundles will still likely be the biggest offering this week for PlayStation fans.
