The Prime Day deals have officially begun. As usual, a whole lot of video games are on sale on Amazon during this 48-hour event, running July 12 - 13. You can save on games for PS5 and PS4, Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One, Nintendo Switch and PC. There are plenty of deals to go around -- and if you're interested in seeing all the best deals, check out our Prime Day deals mega-post.One other thing before we dive into the video game discounts: to take advantage of these sale prices, you'll need a Prime subscription. You may be eligible for a free trial, but even if you aren't, it's only $14.99 for a month. You can sign up here, if you haven't already. Now on with the deals.
PS5 owners have a lot to be thankful for this Prime Day. Not only are you among the lucky relative few to have snagged a sought-after game console, but you have plenty of discounted PS5 games to choose from. If you missed out on Far Cry 6 at launch, for instance, there's no reason not to try it out with this killer deal.

I generally use sales like Prime Day to scoop up games that might have caught my eye when they launched but I either didn't have time to play or didn't want to buy at full price. Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy got good reviews but was widely ignored by many gamers. This deal price makes it an easy purchase, IMO.
The Nintendo Switch has no shortage of Switch games. In fact, game releases are more like a tsunami on this system, in part because all of Nintendo's first-party developers are putting games out on a single system. During previous generations, some Nintendo teams worked on the handheld system while others worked on the console. With the Switch, the handheld system and the console are a single device.
Prime Day deals on games for Xbox Series X, Series S, and Xbox One are also easy to come by. Even newer releases, like Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin, are on sale, often at substantial discounts. Not too many big games are scheduled for release this summer, making now a great time to catch up on any titles you passed up before.
Xbox accessories, including headsets, controller chargers, and more are on sale for Prime Day.
