Best Prime Day 2025 gaming deals
Whether you’re on the hunt for an all-new controller or mouse, or you want to ensure you’re topped up with juice while gaming on the go, this year is chock-full of Amazon Prime Day deals worth checking out.
Most game consoles ship with a controller by default, but these models are often less robust than their third-party counterparts, while also locking you into proprietary connectivity ecosystems. GameSir’s Super Nova is quite the opposite: it works across PC, Switch / Switch 2, iOS / iPadOS, Android, Windows, and macOS, and it’s filled with useful features. The hall effect analog sticks and triggers are designed to withstand extended usage, the RGB lighting adds personality to the mix, and the 1,000 Hz polling rate is precise enough for intense gaming sessions.
Gaming handhelds have taken off in recent years, but they still have one major weakness: poor battery life. While playing an intense AAA video game on the go, you might only squeeze out two or three hours of stamina per charge, depending on model. Thankfully, through the power and universality of USB Type-C, you can effectively double (or triple) your on-the-go battery life using an external power bank. Cuktech’s 15 Ultra is spacious at 20,000 mAh, with a powerful 140 W power output that can top up even some of the most demanding gaming laptops on the market.
Ubisoft’s Assassin’s Creed series of open-world action-adventure titles has always been popular, and the latest-and-greatest entry in the series was released this year in the form of AC: Shadows. This title is set in 16th-century Japan, with Samurai combat and exploration opportunities aplenty. The PlayStation 5 Limited Edition variant comes with the base game and the Sekuryu Character Pack, which is otherwise sold separately in the form of downloadable content (DLC). The game itself ships on an optical disc, but an internet connection is required during the initial download and installation process.
Even with gaming handhelds growing in popularity, it’s still tough to beat the classic gaming laptop form factor. Asus is a long-time player in the space, and its TUF Gaming A14 model is a compelling option for any and all gamers. The notebook ships with a lightning-fast 165 Hz refresh rate 14-inch display, AMD Ryzen AI 7 8845HS and Nvidia GeForce RTX 4050 graphics hardware configurations, 16GB of RAM, and a 512 GB PCIe Gen 4.0 solid state drive (SSD). The device is powered by the Windows 11 operating system, and it runs all the latest AI features from Microsoft due to its Copilot+ PC certification.
When it comes to gaming mice, Logitech has always been a go-to brand. The company’s G305 LIGHTSPEED Gaming Mouse is affordable, wireless, and precise with its 12,000 dots per inch (DPI) optical detection specification. Six configurable buttons are located on the unit, and its rechargeable battery is quoted at up to 250 hours of juice per charge. Logitech’s G Hub application is available on both PC and Mac, which adds in additional customization options. And, if your gaming rig doesn’t support Bluetooth connectivity, there’s no need to sweat: the G305 ships with a dedicated USB-A wireless receiver out of the box.
