If you've been biding your time waiting for a Prime Day PS5 deal that saves you money on the PS5 Slim console, then Amazon has come up trumps for you today.

Right now, you can get the PS5 Slim console (with disc drive) at a hugely discounted rate of just £419.98 at Amazon (was £479.99). That's a healthy 60 quid discount and takes it beyond what even PlayStation DSirect is taking off the PS5 console right now.

US shoppers saw the PS5 discounted earlier in Amazon Prime Day sales but it's great news to finally see the same treatment be applied in the UK and offer players on that side of the Atlantic a chance to save money on the console too. This isn't a lowest-ever UK price - that looks to be the £409 mark that we haven't seen since March - but it's still excellent value and saves you (basically) the price of a PS5 game.
