Black Friday is approaching fast, and already VR headsets from some of the leading brands are seeing huge discounts. Whether they play on PC or console, you can save big on plenty of gaming visors for the gamer in your life.

Right now you can snag the PSVR 2 for just $349 at Amazon and get a free copy of Horizon Call of The Mountain. That's a $250 savings. For PC gamers, the HTC Vive 2 Pro is $400 off at B&H, or if you're on the hunt for a mixed-reality headset instead, you can pick up the HTC Vive XR Elite for the same price of $799 at Amazon. And while we've yet to see price cuts on the Meta Quest 3 headset by itself, retailers are instead offering bundles that throw in the fantastic Batman: Arkham Shadow and a 3-month subscription to Quest+, which gives you access to a rotating catalog of VR games each month.

So tune in (or rather strap in) here for killer discounts on the best VR headsets as Black Friday gets into full swing.
