Don't wait for Prime Day PS5 deals — here's the 13 best early savings I've found
I've combed through the current crop of deals on PS5 games and accessories and found several worthwhile savings that you can score right now. This includes the likes of Assassin's Creed: Shadows for 29% off, and the Nacon Revolution Pro 5 controller has dropped to $129, from its MSRP of $199.
While Prime Day itself is likely to bring more deals, I suspect we won't see very many better ones than these discounts that are already available now. So, if you want to pick up some new PS5 games for the weekend or upgrade your console with useful extras, here are the best early Prime Day PS5 deals.
After more than a decade of waiting, EA has returned to the world of NCAA football in the appropriately titled College Football 25. And this simulation of college football was worth the weight. Offering a slightly more arcade-style pace than its Madden sibling, and letting you play as the biggest schools in the country, it lived up to all those years of anticipation.
In Dying Light 2 Stay Human, you'll control Aiden Caldwell, a skilled survivor searching for his lost sister in a city overrun with zombies. The game focuses on parkour, combat and making choices that impact the story and the fate of the city's factions. Plus, it's been consistently updated with new content since its initial launch in spring 2022.
Experience the original Dead Rising with improved graphics across the board in Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster. This upgraded version of the 2006 classic sees you play as Frank West as he investigates the nightmare situation at Williamette Parkview Mall. Along the way, you'll rescue survivors and defeat memorable bosses, and also fight your way through an entire horde of undead zombies.
Sonic X Shadow Generations combines a remaster of 2011's Sonic Generations, a love letter to the Blue Blur that remains a fan-favorite to this day, with a new Shadow-focused campaign. It's a strong package, and it was perfectly timed to coincide with the latest Sonic the Hedgehog 3 movie.
Star Wars Outlaws represents a new frontier for a Galaxy far, far away as it's the first-ever open-world game set in the iconic sci-fi universe. You play a Han Solo-type named Kay Vess, as you explore various planets and navigate criminal syndicates and the sinister Galactic Empire.
Returnal is a heart-pounding PS5 game that combines bullet-hell gameplay with an engaging roguelike structure. You play an astronaut stuck in a time loop on a mysterious and very deadly alien planet. It's your job to break the cycle and unravel the mystery of this strange new world and how you came to be stranded here.
Long before Elden Ring, Bloodborne and Dark Souls, From Software released Demon's Souls, the first Souls title to truly establish the core gameplay loop that has taken the gaming world by storm. For the current generation, Sony had Bluepoint develop this faithful, beautiful remaster, which improves on the original title and updates it with amazing graphics, new weapons, and items.
A sequel to Horizon Zero Dawn, Horizon Forbidden West takes everything great about its predecessor and expands upon it. In this open-world action/adventure game, you take control of Aloy: a warrior in the post-apocalyptic United States that has been reclaimed by nature. There, she must contend with animal-like machines, as well as cunning human foes, as she ventures from her homeland towards the coast of the Pacific.
Set in 19th-century Japan during the Boshin War, Rise of the Rōnin comes from developer Team Ninja and blends a sizeable open world, a choice-driven narrative and engaging combat. Designed to take full advantage of the PS5, it also offers impressive visuals, speedy loading times and full support for the console's DualSense.
The 14th major installment in the AC franchise, Assassin's Creed: Shadows, is set in 16th-century Japan during the late Sengoku period. Players experience the enduring conflict between the Assassin Brotherhood and the Templar Order through two protagonists: Naoe, a skilled female shinobi, and Yasuke, an African samurai inspired by a real-life historical figure.
The WD_Black SN850X SSD hits all of Sony's specifications and fits perfectly into the PS5's internal expansion slot, and it's even been named an officially licensed PS5 accessory. This 1TB model includes a heatsink and works right out of the box. It's dropped below $100 in the past, so this isn't the lowest ever price, but this Amazon deal is still a discount price for an essential PS5 accessory.
The Sony Inzone H5 is one of the best headsets we've ever tested for the PS5 and gaming PCs. Lightweight and comfortable for long sessions, the H5 can last for up to 28 hours on a full charge. It also boasts 40mm drivers to provide detailed sound and supports 3D audio for immersive gaming.
This officially licensed Sony controller is a must-have accessory for PlayStation fans. The Nacon Revolution 5 Pro is infinitely customizable, featuring remappable shortcuts, a swappable D-Pad, interchangeable controller weights, customizable thumbstick sizes and heads, and more. Plus, with the controller's Hall effect magnetic sensors, you can say bye to stick drift.

Freevee's Standalone App to Shutter in August
Freevee's standalone app will no longer be accessible starting in August, according to an in-app notice to users. 'Prime Video is the new exclusive home for Freevee TV shows, movies and Live TV,' the notice states. 'The Freevee app will be accessible until August 2025. Continue watching your favorite Free Originals and our library of hit movies, shows, and live TV on Prime Video for free, no subscription needed. Download Prime Video to get started and sign-in with your Amazon account.' More from TheWrap Freevee's Standalone App to Shutter in August After 20 Years, Danny DeVito Says 'It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia's' Legacy Is 'I Love Lucy' on Acid Netflix Cancels 'Pulse' and Shondaland's 'The Residence' After One Season Each Mariska Hargitay Had No Idea Marc Maron's 'GLOW' Character Was Based on Her Brother's Dad: 'I Never Saw That' The move comes after Amazon revealed in November that it would shutter the free, ad-supported streaming service as it consolidates its content into Prime Video. At the time, it said that it had decided to 'phase out Freevee branding' and that there would be no change to the content available for Prime members. It added that non-Prime members would still be able to access a 'vast offering' of free streaming content, including select originals from Amazon MGM Studios, a variety of licensed movies and series, and a broad library of FAST channels. Prime Video has surpassed 130 million ad-supported users in the U.S. When combining Prime Video with Amazon's other owned and operated entertainment properties such as Twitch, MGM Studios, Wondery and Amazon Music, the tech giant's entertainment portfolio reaches an average monthly ad-supported audience of more than 300 million globally. Amazon previously shut down rumors of Freevee's shuttering in February 2024, which came just a month after Prime Video launched its ad-supported tier. The streamer first launched as IMDb TV, before being rebranded to Freevee in 2022. The post Freevee's Standalone App to Shutter in August appeared first on TheWrap.

Marisa Abela calls it ‘a real honour' to be cast in the upcoming reboot of Highlander
Marisa Abela has said it is 'a real honour to step into such a legacy' after being cast in the upcoming reboot of Highlander, which also stars Henry Cavill and Russell Crowe. The 28-year-old actress, who recently won a 2025 BAFTA TV Award for her role in the BBC series Industry, is joining the new iteration of the 1986 cult fantasy film, which will be directed by Chad Stahelski. The project is being developed by Amazon MGM Studios and United Artists, with a theatrical release planned. The reboot of Highlander, first announced in 2021, is being spearheaded by former Netflix film chief Scott Stuber, 55, who now oversees United Artists. Michael Finch is writing the screenplay, which is based on the original film by director Russell Mulcahy. That film starred Christopher Lambert and Sean Connery as immortal warriors locked in a centuries-long battle across time. Scott Stuber and Nick Nesbitt will produce the new film on behalf of UA, alongside Neal H. Moritz, 64, Stahelski's production company 87Eleven Entertainment, Josh Davis of Davis Panzer Productions, and Louise Rosner. United Artists has secured full rights to the 1986 film and may also develop a new television series, expanding on a franchise that previously included several sequels and a long-running TV adaptation. The original Highlander was produced by Peter S Davis and William N Panzer and has built a devoted fanbase since its release. Marisa said: 'It's a real honour to step into such a legacy, and I'm looking forward to working with Henry and Russell on something this iconic.' The actress most recently appeared opposite Michael Fassbender, 47, and Cate Blanchett, 55, in Steven Soderbergh's espionage thriller Black Bag. She also received a BAFTA EE Rising Star Award nomination for her portrayal of Amy Winehouse in the 2024 biopic Back to Black. Chad Stahelski, 55, best known for his work on the John Wick franchise, will direct the film. He said earlier this year that Highlander 'has always been a project close to my heart'. Marisa is represented by The Artists Partnership, WME Entertainment, Shelter PR, and Sloane, Offer, Weber and Dern. A spokesperson for Amazon MGM Studios declined to comment on the casting.
