PS5 Bundle Gets $40 Off Before GTA 6 Launch

PlayStation is giving buyers a reason to pick up a PS5 before Grand Theft Auto VI arrives. The company is cutting $40 from refurbished PS5 consoles when they are purchased alongside a DualSense controller, a combination that can bring total savings to as much as $155.

The discount only applies when the two items are bought together as a bundle. Shoppers who already own a controller, or who want a console on its own, will not see the same markdown. Refurbished hardware is a common way for players to lower the cost of getting into the PlayStation ecosystem, and the controller is usually the second item people add to their cart, which makes this bundle an easy fit for a first-time buyer or a family looking to add a second system.

Timing is the main selling point. GTA VI is scheduled for a November 2026 release, and it is widely expected to be one of the biggest drivers of console sales this holiday season. Anyone who has been waiting for a cheaper way into the platform now has a short window to buy before the launch rush pushes stock and attention elsewhere.

Before buying, check the product page for current pricing and availability, since refurbished inventory tends to sell through quickly. The discount is offered for a limited time, and the exact savings can vary depending on the model and configuration you pick.
