Target's Black Friday 2018 Gaming Deals: Mario Kart Switch Bundle, $200 PS4, $45 Black Ops 4, And More

Thanksgiving is just a few hours away, and with it will come countless Black Friday 2018 deals at stores like Target. Below, you can check out the many PS4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch gaming deals, and we also have a look at Target's best gaming deals.

A few video game items are listed as doorbusters in Target's ad. For starters, Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 on both PS4 and Xbox One will be on sale for $45--not a bad discount for a game that just launched last month (though it'll be cheaper elsewhere). Another recent game is getting an even bigger price drop; the starter pack for the toys-to-life space shooter Starlink: Battle for Atlas will be on sale for $40, down from $75.

In terms of hardware doorbusters, you'll be able to get a PlayStation 4 Slim 1TB console with Spider-Man for $200 (for a savings of $100)--although despite the ad's designation of this as a doorbuster, you can actually take advantage of the deal right now. Also $100 off is a PlayStation VR bundle that comes with the headset, camera, and two Move controllers, as well as copies of Superhot VR and Creed: Rise to Glory, all for $250.

Even many of the non-doorbuster discounts are much better than you'd see during normal sales. Assassin's Creed Odyssey can be had for $35, while Shadow of the Tomb Raider is down to $30. Overwatch and Star Wars Battlefront 2 are down to just $15 each. A Nintendo Switch can be had for its usual price of $300 but with a free copy of Mario Kart 8 Deluxe.

In terms of exclusives, PS4 owners can grab God of War or Detroit: Become Human for $25 apiece. Xbox One players can pick up PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds for $15, or Sea of Thieves and Forza Horizon 4 for $35 each. Switch owners can get Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy or Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle for $25 each.

You can get these sale prices online or in store, but as always, stock will be limited. If you want to brave the crowds and get your hands on the items in person, Target stores will be open and offering these deals from 5 PM Thursday, November 22 to 1 AM Friday, November 23. Then--presumably after spending a few hours cleaning up and re-stocking--they'll re-open Friday, November 23 at 7 AM. It's possible certain stores will use different hours, so you might want to double-check closer to Black Friday. We've broken down all of the various Black Friday store hours to help you know when the deals begin.

Now it's time for the big list, which you can also see in the full Target Black Friday ad. All of the following games will be available at the prices listed below on Black Friday, but Target says even more games will also be on sale. We'll update this article when we find out what those are. In the mean time, check out the full list and start planning your Black Friday 2018 purchases now.
