When is Black Friday 2020?
The day of Black Friday is November 27 this year – the day after Thanksgiving in the US – which is always the fourth Thursday of the month.
There are usually some retailers that kick off their sales either the week before the day, or at the start of Black Friday week— so Black Friday PS4 and gaming deals will likely be available at least a week earlier.
Big names like Argos have been known to provide offers ahead of the days, so it’s sensible to be on the lookout early.
When is Cyber Monday?
Cyber Monday follows Black Friday and lands on Monday, November 30 this year.
Most retailers run their sales on this day too, with additional offers and discounts—perfect if you miss out on Black Friday’s savings!

What to expect from Black Friday PS4 deal in 2020
In two words: big discounts. The PS4 will be superseded by the PS5 come November, as both Sony and Microsoft next-generation consoles are launched.
That doesn’t mean the end of the PS4 as there will still be games and support for it, but it should mean big savings as retailers and online stores begin to clear stock.
This Black Friday PS4 bundles will also be knocked down, and the PS4 may even be bundled in pay monthly phone contracts.
Essentially, if you’re looking for a big saving on quality entertainment, this Black Friday should be a prime time to pick up the console.
There are always plenty of offers on the PS4 during Black Friday

Last year there were savings of around £100, particularly on bundles, with a game and extra controller added in.
Bundles were available from retailers like Argos last lack Friday, starting at £329.99 and typically including a console, selected game, Blu-Ray and a special-edition orange controller.
For the same deal without the exclusive controller, prices start at £299.99.
Similar deals should be available this year, albeit at a lower price. The PS4 Pro may not be reduced quite so much, as it is more sought after.

The largest difference between the PS4 and the Pro model is the resolution the consoles can produce.
The standard PS4 is limited to 1080p whereas the Pro can put out 2160p, or 4k as it’s more commonly known.
At the moment there’s quite a small library of games that can actually utilize the extra pixels, but you can expect that to increase going forwards.
As well getting a boost in its processing power, the Pro is also a little heavier and has an extra USB port.
