It’s that time of year again: the biggest summer video game deals are starting now! Amazon’s early Prime Day deals, in particular, are a treasure trove of savings, especially since they’re already price-matching some items found in Target, Walmart, and Best Buy’s sales.
One of the standout offers is their Buy 2, Get 1 Free sale on video games, featuring some stellar titles like Dragon’s Dogma 2, Helldivers 2, Stellar Blade, and many more. We’ve highlighted some of our top picks from the sale below, but if you want to explore all the available games, head to Amazon’s main Buy 2, Get 1 Free deal page.
But it’s not just about games—this sale covers a plethora of items, from books and toys to furniture and more. If you’re a gaming enthusiast, you can easily filter to video games on mobile or select the “video games” category in the sidebar when browsing elsewhere. And here’s the best part: you can mix and match across categories.
Don’t just take our word for it either, ensure you’re checking across the entire sale to get the most value out of any purchases. Find three items you love, and the least expensive one is yours for free. It’s a fantastic deal, but it’s also worth mentioning that Target is running a Buy 2, Get 1 Free sale on a variety of items as well, including video games. This makes it a perfect time to compare and find the best bargains across both retailers.
Prime Day officially kicks off this year on July 16 and 17, but there are already plenty of early deals available for Prime members. One of our favorites? Three months of Audible Premium Plus for free. With this, you’ll get one credit per month to enjoy some of the best audiobooks out there, plus access to an array of incredible Audible Originals. The latest adaptation of 1984, starring Andrew Garfield, is a standout that makes the Audible Premium Plus subscription worth every penny.
