Prime Day is June 23 to 26, and Lifehacker is sharing the best sales based on product reviews, comparisons, and price-tracking tools before it’s over.
This Prime Day features some great deals for gamers, including low prices on the two of the most played, most award-winning video games in recent history, plus solid deals on all kinds of controllers and peripherals. Whether you want to finally replace that drifting controller, level up your gaming mouse, or spend a few hundred hours immersed in the best RPGs ever made, this is your week.
Clair Obscur Expedition 33 (PS5): This evocative role-playing game holds the world record for the most awarded video game in history—so yeah, it’s pretty good. Critics and gamers alike praise it for its innovative gameplay, nuanced characters, and evocative art style. If the price was holding you back from playing it, it’s 20% off now.
Elden Ring (PS5): If you’re wondering about the second most awarded video game in history, it’s Elden Ring, which is on sale for Prime Day for $20, a 60% discount. Elden Ring is the kind of game that can become your life; it’s deep, breathtaking, punishingly difficult, and absolutely beautiful. If you’re an Xboxer, that version is on sale for a slightly smaller discount.
Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle and Sparks of Hope (Switch): A bundle of two colorful, surprisingly brilliant strategy games for $10? I say that’s a great deal. The original Kingdom Battle pairs Mario with Ubisoft’s Rabbids for XCOM-style combat; a weird choice, but it works. The sequel, Sparks of Hope, features free-form movement and takes the tactical action into space.
The Oregon Trail Deluxe Edition (Xbox Series X): You may have nostalgic memories of playing Oregon Trail in school. This reboot of the classic resource management game keeps the 8-bit vibe of the original and adds surprising strategic depth. It’s $27.99 for Prime Day.
Resident Evil Requiem Amazon Exclusive Edition (PS5): The ninth and latest entry in the legendary horror series takes players back to where the biological nightmare began—Raccoon City. This Amazon Exclusive Edition bundles a collectible two-sided poster inside the game package, and it’s 20% off for Prime Day.
Life is Strange Collection (PS5): I love that the video game market has matured enough to support an emotion-heavy, narrative-driven game series that is as far from gunning down space marines as you can imagine. This package bundles five full games from the award-winning franchise, plus all the DLC, into one package for $39.99
Official Luna Wireless Controller: Built for low-latency cloud and PC gaming, this multi-platform controller is marked down from $70 to $40. Unlike standard Bluetooth controllers that route your inputs through your device first, this gamepad’s “Cloud Direct” technology connects directly to Amazon’s game servers over Wi-Fi to shave off milliseconds of latency. If you’re into cloud gaming, you’ll notice the difference immediately.
Razer Kishi V3 Gaming Controller: This controller brings the ergonomics and performance of a console pad to your smartphone. It includes full-sized anti-drift thumbsticks and dual mouse buttons for quick inputs. It also features an extendable design that fits right over most phone cases, so you won’t have to strip down your device every time you want to play. At $61, it’s nearly 40% off right now.
Corsair NIGHTSABRE RGB Wireless Gaming Mouse: It’s time to ditch that stuttery mouse that came with your computer. This gaming mouse packs 11 fully programmable buttons into a sleek chassis, giving you macro-heavy utility without looking like an oversized brick. Corsair’s 26K DPI Marksman optical sensor ensures accuracy, and the battery lasts for 100 hours on a charge. The current $85 price represents a $65 discount.
Logitech G920 Driving Force Racing Wheel and Floor Pedals: Racing games are fun, but have you tried racing games with a racing wheel? It’s next level. Designed specifically for Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and PC, Logitech’s G920 features a dual-motor force feedback system that realistically mimics tire traction loss, weight shifts, and track surfaces. Right now, it’s $110 off. Forza will never be the same.
Elgato Stream Deck XL: I’m a huge proponent of customizable, external controls for computer tasks, whether for streaming, editing video, or just gaming. Elgato’s Stream Deck XL features a grid of 32 LCD keys you can use to launch apps, mute mics, adjust volume, or execute complex Macros, all without delving into nested menus or otherwise breaking your flow. It’s $60 off for Prime Day.
Logitech G Farm Simulator Heavy Equipment Bundle: This peripheral is pretty niche, but it’s so cool, I wanted to include it anyway. Developed specifically for titles like Farming Simulator, this hardware setup mimics all the controls of actual heavy agricultural machinery like tractors, combine harvesters, and logging rigs. Anyone who knows the zen joy of a farm simulation will understand why they need this thing—especially at a huge $150 discount.
Looking for something else? Retailers like Walmart and Best Buy run Prime Day-style sales that are especially useful if you don’t have Amazon Prime.
