Amazon Gaming Week 2026 has officially arrived, bringing substantial markdowns on a diverse selection of video games, accessories, and PC hardware. While Xbox owners might find the pickings a bit thin this time around, PS5 players are in for a treat with deep discounts on some of the biggest titles from 2025. The sale also extends to high-end peripherals, including a top-tier gaming keyboard. Here are the standout deals from this year’s event.
Nex Playground is being hailed as the spiritual successor to the Nintendo Wii, offering a compact console packed with motion-controlled games. From rhythm challenges to soccer and a modernized Fruit Ninja, it provides active, family-friendly fun. Polygon’s Matt Patches called it a perfect antidote to rainy-day boredom, noting that it delivers solid entertainment without keeping the family glued to the couch. Normally priced at $299.99, it is now available for $239.99.
Elden Ring Nightreign on PS5 has dropped to $31.50, making it the perfect time to jump into this cooperative multiplayer spinoff. FromSoftware has added new bosses, additional classes, and the ability to play with just one partner instead of a full trio, addressing early criticism about the difficulty of coordinating larger groups.
For fans of survival horror, the Resident Evil 4 remake on PS5 is a steal at $15.99. It retains the classic puzzle and inventory mechanics of the original while delivering grittier action and a revitalized pace through previously tedious sections. Similarly, Resident Evil 7: Biohazard Gold Edition is available for the same price, offering Ethan Winters’ terrifying journey through a Louisiana mansion along with all its story-expanding DLC.
Lost Records: Bloom and Rage, one of 2025’s most acclaimed adventure games, is on sale for $29.99 on PS5. It follows a group of friends confronting a life-altering past event, wrapped in purposeful ’90s nostalgia that elevates the narrative beyond simple callbacks.
MLB The Show 26 remains one of the year’s best sellers despite controversial changes to its online trading system. The core baseball simulation is tighter than ever, and the Road to the Show mode now includes college and high school teams. It is discounted to $49.94.
Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth on PS5 is priced at $38. It expands beyond Midgar into a vast open world, cleverly tying side quests to the characters’ emotional journey to avoid bloat. It stands as a highlight of the series’ character writing.
Disney Illusion Island brings classic Rayman-style platforming with a Disney twist, avoiding cheap nostalgia in favor of inspired design. It supports up to four players and is available for $27.00 on PS5.
On the hardware side, the Logitech G502 Hero wired gaming mouse is down to $32.99. Known for its ergonomic design and customizable weights, it remains a staple on lists of the best gaming peripherals.
Finally, Dragon Quest 3 HD-2D Remake is a rare discount during Amazon Gaming Week. The PS5 and Switch versions are $29.99, while the Xbox Series X version is even lower at $23.99. The HD-2D visuals breathe new life into a classic tale, and Switch 2 players can download a free performance upgrade.
