PS4 deals are slowing in the UK. After all, many are instead looking to buy PS5 instead right now. That new console would normally mean the PS4 price would drop over the next few months, but we're seeing very little stock at the moment so there's no guarantees on availability in the future.
The new PS5 has also been extremely difficult to get hold of since it launched in the UK on November 19, so if you're looking for a cheap console to tide you over until the new version is discounted, you might want to move quickly.
These PS4 deals may still be worth a look, then, if you're after the wider home entertainment options that come with a disc tray, and don't want to spend £450 on a PS5. Plus, the PS4 also doubles up as a powerful virtual reality machine – and for less than you'd expect to pay for an Oculus Rift or HTC Vive, thanks to the latest PlayStation VR deals.
On this page, you'll find the best PS4 prices in the UK. Our comparison chart, below, has all the latest PS4 deals from the best UK retailers. Underneath this, we've hand-picked the best PS4 bundles: these add additional software or accessories, and offer the best value discounts. And further down the article, we've found today's best PS4 Pro prices too.

DualShock 4 Back Button attachment prices
PlayStation recently released this DualShock 4 back button attachment to add extra functionality to its collection of PS4 controllers. So far, the add-on has proven popular, so we're currently seeing stock shortages in the US. As soon as it's back on the shelves, you'll see the best prices below, so be sure to check back soon.
Cheap PlayStation Plus deals
If you're buying a PS4, you'll probably need a cheap PlayStation Plus deal too. PlayStation Plus (aka PS Plus or PS+) allows you to play PS4 games online, along with access to the Instant Game Collection, a bunch of free games for PS4, PS3 and Vita each month. The default price for a year is £50. We can do better than that though, so check out our selection of the best PlayStation Plus deals.
What makes a good PS4 bundle?
If you've got your eye on a few cheap PS4 bundles, but don't know if they represent good value for money, you can always find out how much the included game is separately. Most PS4 bundles retail for the same price as the console by itself or less – £249 for a PS4 Slim and £349 for a PS4 Pro, so if you see one on sale above that price point, make sure you're saving cash by comparing the value of the extra goodies included.
That said, even at the £249 price point, there are some PS4 bundles that are better than others. If you're in full-on savings mode, you'll want to find the bundle that offers the most expensive game included at that price point. There are some about offering cheaper games at the standard mark that represent less value than a recent release. In that situation, you may be better off picking up the PS4 bundle with the most recent or most expensive game bundled in and simply grabbing the cheaper game separately.
Need an extra cheap PS4 controller? Don't forget to check our Best DualShock 4 deals. Or maybe a cheap PlayStation VR deal? If you're still torn, maybe you'd prefer one of our Xbox One deals?
