Amazon’s kicked off its Cyber Monday sale a little early this year and is still offering some great deals that are worth jumping on ahead of the holidays. In terms of video game deals, quite a few have caught our eye that have been brought over into the retailer’s Cyber Monday sale, including an excellent discount on the Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol.1 for Switch.
Switch owners can enjoy a nice 63% discount on this collection, which has brought its price down to just $18.74. According to price tracker camelcamelcamel, it’s the lowest price its hit so far which is a massive bonus. A lot of deals like this won’t stick around long after Cyber Monday, so if you’ve been wanting to add this stealthy series to your game library, now’s the time.
There’s plenty in this collection to keep you busy all throughout the holidays, too. It comes with Metal Gear, Metal Gear 2, Metal Gear Solid, Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty, Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater, Metal Gear (NES/FC version), and Snake’s Revenge. With Metal Gear Solid Delta hopefully dropping sometime soon, there’s never been a better time to sneak back into this series of games.
Amazon’s got even more gaming deals in its Cyber Monday sale that are worth adding to your virtual shopping cart. Some big ones that got our attention were Star Wars Outlaws, which remains on sale at $40 from Black Friday, and Sonic X Shadow Generations, which is down to just $30. These just scratch the surface of what the retailer currently has available, though. To see more of our favorite deals outside of games, have a look at our breakdown of Amazon’s Cyber Monday sale.
Will the Deals Change for Cyber Monday?
Many of the same deals from Black Friday are likely to return for Cyber Monday 2024, including some that sold out or expired. Retailers often stagger their inventory, reserving stock for each major sale event. This means Cyber Monday will bring back popular deals alongside brand-new, never-before-seen offers.
Traditionally, Black Friday was the in-store shopping frenzy, while Cyber Monday focused on online deals. While those lines have blurred, Cyber Monday remains the top event for online-focused retailers like Amazon, Newegg, Dell, HP, and Lenovo. Even traditional retailers like Best Buy, Target, and Walmart roll out exclusive online-only offers. Amazon, in particular, has already shifted gears to highlight its Cyber Monday deals early, so expect some amazing sales ahead.
