Let's dive in!
Cheap Consoles Christmas 2020
We can safely assume that not everyone will be jumping to upgrade to next-gen when it releases, for a wide variety of reasons. Some people may want to wait until it drops in price for instance.
The good news is that current-gen consoles continue to stand the test of time, and for the most part, have titles which will be released or playable on either generation.
PS4
With the release of PS5 this holiday 2020, we're predicting we'll see some great deals on PS4 Pro bundles in the run-up to Christmas.
PS4 Pro's ability to run games in 4K means that you're really getting the most out of current-gen releases.

Not to mention that amazing titles like Warzone, Fortnite, and F1 2020 are all on PS4 already, and there's a lot to look forward to with FIFA 21, Assassin's Creed Valhalla, and NBA 2K21 on the near horizon.
PS4 - Latest Deals
We'd recommend heading to either Amazon Prime Day or Black Friday for the best deals on PS4 Pro bundles, but if you're looking for something right now, there are three offers worth considering.
Here are 3 deals all for the PS4 Pro, with some genuinely amazing titles - all of which come alive in 4K.
- PS4 Pro with Spider-Man for £349
- PS4 Pro with God of War for £349
- PS4 Pro with Death Stranding for £349
Xbox One
You may have heard the news that the Xbox One X and Xbox One S All Digital version have been discontinued.
The good news is that the Xbox One S will still be made - which means it's still one of the consoles you can get for cheap in the build-up to Christmas 2020!
If you're planning on getting the Xbox One S, we recommend going for a bundle deal. Again, Prime Day 2020 and Black Friday are good bets for this, and there are usually some great games included.

Xbox One - Latest Deals
Forza Horizon 4, Titanfall 2 and NOW TV make up this fantastic Xbox One S deal.
Forza Horizon is a great driving game for both casual and serious gamers. Titanfall 2 is an intense, and surprisingly compelling, first-person shooter which has some incredible set-pieces - well worth having in the collection!
Nintendo Switch
If you're looking for cheap consoles this Christmas 2020, specifically one the whole family can use from the go, then Nintendo Switch is for you.
Zelda Breath of the Wild, Animal Crossing New Horizons, and Minecraft Dungeons are all playable on the Switch, alongside countless other amazing titles.
However, Nintendo seemingly don't apply heavy discounts to the Nintendo Switch or its games, which means that if you're looking for a cheap console it may be wise to go for the Nintendo Switch Lite instead.

The handheld only version still packs a punch, but the only major difference is that you won't be able to 'switch' it to the TV and the controllers are fixed to the machine.
It's smaller too, which is great if you're travelling and in need of some much-needed entertainment!
We recommend heading to the bundle deals, especially if they include some new releases!
