Sony PlayStation VR bundle with Creed and Superhot: $250 (save $100)
Sarah Tew/CNET
If you already own a PS4, this kit takes it to the next level with two great VR games — Creed: Rise to Glory and Superhot VR — as well as the two Move controllers for just $30 more than you’d normally pay for the base VR system alone. This bundle is widely available as of Sunday at Walmart (see below), Amazon, GameStop and Best Buy.
Save $100 on all PlayStation VR bundles, starting at $200
Sarah Tew/CNET
If you don’t care about those games, or the Move controllers, you can look for a variety of bundles at major retailers starting at $50 less. Titles include Astro Bot Rescue Mission, Firewall, and Creed: Rise to Glory, and retailers include Walmart (below) as well as GameStop and Best Buy.
PS4 Pro with Red Dead Redemption 2 for $400 ($60 off)
Target
The Spider-Man bundle above includes the entry-level PS4 unit. It’s great for the price, but if you want 4K gaming, you’ll want the step-up PS4 Pro model. That isn’t really discounted below its standard $400 price, but you can find it bundled with Red Dead Redemption 2 — one of the best games ever — at no extra charge. That’s effectively a $60 discount, and months of amazing (adult) gameplay. (We have to note, though, that the Xbox One X version of the game does look better.) This bundle is available everywhere, but already getting difficult to find.
