Our top pick

Why we like it

While PlayStation VR 2 didn’t really blow up in the way that many of us expected it to, Sony’s attempt at creating a smash-hit headset is still a worthwhile investment for VR diehards, if you ask us — especially when you can snag one for $200 off. This PSVR 2 deal not only comes with the VR rig itself, but also with a copy of Horizon Call of the Mountain, which is definitely a must-play PSVR 2 title. The deeply immersive experience throws you into the world of Horizon as you’ve never seen it before. You’ll climb treacherous mountains, go head-to-head with dangerous machine enemies, and bask in the gorgeous environments that the game has to offer. If you’ve enjoyed the other Horizon games and want to connect with the franchise even deeper, this is your best bet. This deal ends on Aug. 4, so be sure to grab one quickly if you’re considering it.
