PlayStation Black Friday 2026: Some PS Store Deals End Nov. 20

The PlayStation Store Black Friday sale started Wednesday, Nov. 4, 2026, and runs through Monday, Nov. 30, with certain discounts ending earlier on Friday, Nov. 20, according to a Nov. 3 post on PlayStation.Blog by Sony Interactive Entertainment. Both end times are 23:59 on the clock of the store, which works out to 2:59 a.m. ET the next morning for U.S. shoppers. The table below converts every step, and a free printable wish list holds the two deadlines.

PlayStation.Blog says the promotion offers up to 75% off on thousands of PS5, PS4 and PlayStation VR2 (PS VR2) games, expansions and downloadable content (DLC). The post names no individual games, no PlayStation Plus offers and no console prices, so none are listed here.

What are the PlayStation Store Black Friday 2026 dates?

The post says the sale “starts early with discounts on PlayStation Store beginning November 4.” It adds that “the sale runs through to Monday, November 30, new titles join November 16.”

The post labels every time with Pacific Standard Time (PST), Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) and Japan Standard Time (JST), written “PST/GMT/JST”.

Step	Date	What the post says
Sale starts	Wed., Nov. 4	Begins at 00:00 AM PST/GMT/JST
New titles join	Mon., Nov. 16	No time given
Certain discounts end	Fri., Nov. 20	Ends at 23:59 PM PST/GMT/JST
Sale ends	Mon., Nov. 30	Ends at 23:59 PM PST/GMT/JST

From Monday, Nov. 9, the Nov. 20 deadline is 11 days away and the Nov. 30 finish is 21 days away. The sale itself spans 27 days, counting both ends. Black Friday is Nov. 27, and the sale’s last day is also Cyber Monday. Our when is Black Friday page has the retail date.

What time does the PlayStation Black Friday sale end in ET, PT and GMT?

The post prints one label for every time. Our reading is that each store uses its own local clock at 23:59: Pacific Time in the U.S. store, GMT in the UK store and JST in the Japan store. The post does not spell that out, so confirm the time on your own PlayStation Store.

Pacific Standard Time (UTC-8) is in effect, so Eastern Time (ET, UTC-5) is three hours ahead of Pacific Time (PT). Conversions below are ours.

Step	PT (U.S. store)	Mountain Time (MT)	Central Time (CT)	ET	GMT (UK store)	JST (Japan store)
Sale starts	Wed., Nov. 4, 12 a.m.	1 a.m.	2 a.m.	3 a.m.	Wed., Nov. 4, 00:00	Wed., Nov. 4, 00:00
Certain discounts end	Fri., Nov. 20, 11:59 p.m.	12:59 a.m. Sat., Nov. 21	1:59 a.m. Sat., Nov. 21	2:59 a.m. Sat., Nov. 21	Fri., Nov. 20, 23:59	Fri., Nov. 20, 23:59
Sale ends	Mon., Nov. 30, 11:59 p.m.	12:59 a.m. Tue., Dec. 1	1:59 a.m. Tue., Dec. 1	2:59 a.m. Tue., Dec. 1	Mon., Nov. 30, 23:59	Mon., Nov. 30, 23:59

For East Coast shoppers both deadlines fall after midnight. The last full evening to buy is Friday, Nov. 20 for the early-ending discounts and Monday, Nov. 30 for the rest.

Which PlayStation Store discounts end on Nov. 20?

The post says only that “certain discounts will end on November 20 at 23:59 PM PST/GMT/JST, before the promotion finishes.” It does not say which ones. On the PlayStation Store, check the end date shown on each game before you count on the Nov. 30 finish. The printable has a column to mark each wish-list item that ends Nov. 20.

Do the deals page and other stores have dates yet?

On Nov. 9, 2026, the playstation.com Black Friday page at playstation.com/en-us/deals/black-friday/ still carried a placeholder message with no dates. The dates are in the PlayStation.Blog post, not on the deals hub.

Other platforms have not announced 2026 Black Friday sales on their official pages as of Nov. 9:

• Xbox: Xbox Wire has no 2026 Black Friday post.
• Nintendo: the What’s New page on nintendo.com/us has none.
• Steam: the Steam sales page lists no November sale. Valve’s dated sales are in our Steam Winter Sale 2026 dates story.

For other games coming this month, see the November 2026 video game release dates and the PlayStation Plus November 2026 games.
