Early Black Friday sales have begun, offering significant discounts on a range of electronics and games, including major titles from Square Enix and high-end audio gear. Notable deals include Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, Sony's WF-1000XM6 earbuds, and various storage solutions.
Square Enix Game Discounts
Final Fantasy VII Rebirth is available for $34.99 as a Game-Key Card on Nintendo Switch 2 and for $19.99 on PS5 at both Amazon and Best Buy. The Nintendo Switch 2 version at Best Buy includes the Day One Edition with a Magic: The Gathering promo card. IGN praised Final Fantasy VII Rebirth in its review, awarding it a 9/10 and calling it "full of exciting challenges and an awe-inspiring recreation of a world that has meant so much to so many for so long."
Other Square Enix titles are also on sale, such as The Adventures of Elliot: The Millennium Tales. These discounts are part of an early Black Friday promotion at Amazon and Best Buy.
Storage Solutions and Audio Gear
A 512GB Samsung MicroSD Express Card, recommended as IGN's top budget option for the Nintendo Switch 2, is discounted by $50 to $99.99 on Amazon. While competitors like Onn offer lower prices, Samsung's cards are noted for better longevity and faster read/write speeds. This large capacity is particularly useful for games distributed as code-in-box, which can quickly consume internal storage.
Sony's WF-1000XM6 True Wireless Noise-Canceling Earbuds have reached a new low price of $238 at B&H Photo, with a $90 discount applied at checkout. These earbuds offer high-quality audio, effective noise cancellation, and approximately 8 hours of battery life, plus an additional 16 hours from the charging case. A 5-minute quick charge provides one hour of playback.
