GamesRadar+’s Deal of the Day Digest is a rotating roundup of discounts on PS5, Nintendo Switch, Xbox and PC games and gear. Its October 1, 2026 section showed Metroid Ravenous for Nintendo Switch 2 at Amazon for $59.88, compared with a displayed previous price of $69.99; that is a dated example, not confirmation the offer is still available.
What the GamesRadar+ digest includes
The roundup is designed to surface gaming deals across four platforms: PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch, Xbox and PC. Its previous picks have included physical games as well as hardware and accessories, such as controllers. Because the list changes, an item appearing in an earlier edition does not establish that it is still discounted or in stock.

How to assess a deal in the roundup
Before treating a listed discount as a good fit, check the specific edition or model, platform compatibility, retailer, live price and stock. For accessories, verify that the exact hardware supports your console or PC setup. The comparison price is useful context, but it does not by itself establish how long the offer will last or whether the item is the right choice for you.
GamesRadar+’s listing names Tabitha Baker as author and reports a last update of October 2, 2026. The visible deal section is headed October 1, so use the date attached to the particular offer rather than assuming every entry reflects the listing’s later update date.

- The 16 digit code on the back of the card WILL NOT work if redeemed directly through your gaming platform (PlayStation Network, Xbox Live, Nintendo Switch, Mobile, etc.)
