Costco announced that members can soon purchase a PS5 Slim Disc Drive bundle with an extra DualSense Controller for $479.99 during its annual Black Friday Weekend sales. Costco shared its Black Friday and Cyber Monday offers a week in advance, with the PS5 Slim joining other gadgets like the Meta Quest 3S VR headset on the retailer's seasonal offers.
The upcoming discount on the PS5 Slim bundle was revealed a month ahead of Black Friday. Costco's upcoming sale will also come at an opportune time for consumers, following Sony's PS5 price changes in the US. Due to the Trump administration's tariffs on goods from various countries, including China, the price of the PS5 Slim disc and digital editions increased to $549 and $499, respectively, while the PS5 Pro jumped to $749. The $50 increase across the board currently does not affect any PS5 controllers and accessories, though those are subject to change.

Costco Reveals Black Friday PS5 Bundle Offer
However, shoppers looking to get a new PS5 console for the holidays will have at least one offer to consider. Costco will sell a PS5 Slim Disc Edition bundle that includes an extra DualSense controller for $479.99 during Black Friday weekend, from November 28 to December 1. The deal will also have an early start window on November 21. However, all of Costco's deals are exclusive to customers with a Costco Gold Star or Executive membership, which carry an annual fee of $65 and $130, respectively. Purchases can be made in-store and online, while supplies last. The bundle will also be significantly cheaper than the current $599.99 warehouse price Costco offers. Along with the PS5 Slim bundle, Costco's other Black Friday offers include a $50 discount on the Meta Quest 3S 128GB VR headset, bringing it down to $249, and an MSI 27-inch 1440p monitor for $150.
Customers looking to get an Xbox Series X/S for Black Friday at Costco are out of luck. In September, Costco started clearing out its inventory of Xbox systems, and a Costco spokesperson confirmed the move was "a business decision" by the retailer. Costco clarified that it had no plans to restock the Xbox Series X/S moving forward, but that maintaining sufficient stock of PlayStation and Nintendo consoles will be its focus.
With games like Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 and Where Winds Mee t arriving in November, and major hits like Marvel's Wolverine and Grand Theft Auto 6 lined up for 2026, the PS5's lineup shows no signs of slowing down. It remains to be seen how many PS5 consoles Costco will sell this holiday shopping season.
Sony's PlayStation 5 is part of the ninth console generation and debuted with a launch lineup that included Demon's Souls and Astro's Playroom. The console comes with a Blu-ray disc, although a digital-only edition is also available for a cheaper price.
