31 Best Amazon Prime Day Gaming Deals 2023: Discounted Keyboards, Mice & Console Accessories – MyCyberBase

If we’re being totally honest, Amazon Prime Day gaming deals are one of the best parts of the pre-holiday period. The weather’s certainly getting colder, which means all the reason to stay indoors and game all evening. But don’t get complacent – the Amazon Prime Big Deal Days sales event ends tonight at 23:59, which means we’re quickly running out of time to take advantage of the some of the biggest price drops for high-quality gaming gear.

Luckily, there is no shortage of seriously impressive deals that reduced everything from PC components and gaming peripherals to keyboards, mice, headsets, microphones and even curved monitors. Considering we’re not likely to see such discounts again until Black Friday, I’d say it’s time to start ticking off items on your wishlist. Plus, with the festive season fast-approaching, you might also benefit from sorting out your Christmas shopping ahead of time (while saving ££ in the process). But knowing how popular tech is on Amazon, we’d suggest acting fast while the stock lasts and the deals are still active. Take it from me: you don’t want to miss out on these tech deals.

Best Amazon Prime Day gaming deals at a glance:

As an avid PC gamer and an ex-Twitch streamer, I’d like to think that I know a thing or two about gaming devices. Not to mention, prior to becoming a beauty journalist, I wrote about all things tech and gaming for a living. I’ve tested and reviewed countless gaming peripherals. Over the past three or so years, I’ve been fully dedicated to building my dream gaming setup, and I’m proud to say that after all the time, effort and money that went into it, it’s finally complete. Why do I care so much about the aesthetics, you ask? Of course, when it comes to gaming, all that really matters is the functionality, but as someone who spends the majority of my time at my desk (be it for work or for playing video games), being surrounded by gear that you love makes one hell of a difference.

Frustratingly, since the gaming industry is heavily dominated by men, finding a quality piece of gaming hardware that fits your aesthetic can be quite a challenge, to say the least (since practically everything else is either black, red or both). However, over the past few years, it seems as though the industry is getting progressively more inclusive and celebratory of female gamers, with multiple gaming manufacturers now releasing a whole variety of peripherals in all shapes and colours. From Razer and Logitech to ASUS ROG, there’s quite a few brands that I’m particularly fond of, all offering an exceptional level of quality without compromising the looks, of course.

But regardless of the aesthetic, shopping for gaming and tech is far from easy, namely because of the notoriously expensive price tag. Luckily, Amazon Prime device deals can take a good chunk off your order total. Last year, we saw discounts on everything from gaming controllers, carry-on cases, keyboards, headsets, monitors, consoles – you name it. Ahead, the ultimate roundup of the best discounted gaming gear you can find this Amazon Prime Day. Enjoy.
