This package offers great value, including the PSVR2 headset and controllers along with the Horizon Call of The Mountain game. It positions the PSVR2 as a strong competitor to budget-friendly options like the Meta Quest, providing a premium virtual reality experience at a more affordable price.

As PS5 games continue to increase in size and SSD prices rise, finding the right storage at a great price is crucial. We've listed our favorite deals here, but be sure to check back frequently for updates, as new SSD deals emerge regularly.

Remember, not all SSDs are compatible with the PS5. For optimal performance, you'll need a PCIe Gen4 x4 M.2 drive with a minimum read speed of 5,500MB/s to match the console's internal storage.

Where to Buy: PS5 Pro

PlayStation 5 Pro - Now Available

$699.00 at Amazon

The PS5 Pro, unlike the original PS5, launched with widespread availability. It's still in stock at major retailers.

Designed for gamers who prioritize graphics and performance, especially those with high-end TVs, the PS5 Pro comes at a premium price of $700 plus tax (without a disc drive). It's an investment that makes sense if you're looking to elevate your gaming experience. However, if you're content with your current visuals or aren't particularly sensitive to frame rates, the PS5 Pro might be more of a luxury than a necessity.

Where to Buy: PlayStation Portal

PlayStation Portal Remote Player

$199.00 at Amazon

The PlayStation Portal has evolved significantly since its launch. Despite initial skepticism, it has proven to be a valuable companion for PS5 owners.

Despite stock challenges and demand surges, a new feature has made it even more appealing. Sony recently introduced an update for the PlayStation Portal, currently in opt-in beta, allowing PlayStation Plus Premium subscribers to stream games from the cloud. This means you can enjoy a library of games on the go, even without owning a PS5. This update adds another compelling reason to consider the PlayStation Portal.

How to Trade in Your Old PlayStation Consoles

If you're looking to trade in your old PlayStation consoles, you can do so at select retailers both in-store and online. The most widely available options are GameStop and Best Buy, but you can also trade your used devices online at retailers like Amazon and Microsoft.

Some retailers offer cash for your used goods, while others provide a gift card for in-store and online use. This is a great way to offload your old gaming gear and get some money to put towards a newer console and games.

While trading devices in at retailers often yields the lowest amount for your used consoles, online marketplaces like eBay, Craigslist, and OfferUp may fetch higher prices. However, you'll be responsible for packing and shipping costs, or you may need to meet someone in person for the transaction, which carries its own risks.
