Plus, deals on select video games at Best Buy.
Today's daily deals for Sunday, July 2 include the biggest sale we've seen so far on Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, which you can get now for $15 off. And, there's a solid video game sale going on over at Best Buy today, which includes first-party titles for both PlayStation and Nintendo platforms. Plus, as part of the Steam Summer Sale, you can save some cash on a Steam Deck handheld right now. And, we're less than two weeks out from Amazon Prime Day, and the deals are already starting to kick off. These deals and more below.
Save $15 on Star Wars Jedi: Survivor
Star Wars Jedi: Survivor is one of the best games of 2023, and we haven't really seen it go on sale so far. That all changes today, because the game has a $15 discount down from $70 to $55. Jedi: Survivor carries on the story of Cal Kestis following the events of Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, and it brings more planets, new enemies, and fresh customization options into the fold. If you've been waiting for that first discount, now is the time to buy Jedi Survivor.
Big Video Game Sale at Best Buy
If you want to save on a handful of PlayStation and Nintendo Switch games, today is a great day to do that. There are several fantastic games on sale at Best Buy today, including a number of discounts that expire after today. You can grab great PlayStation exclusives like The Last of Us Part II and Spider-Man: Miles Morales Ultimate Edition. Spider-Man is a great choice because it includes both Spider-Man: Miles Morales and Spider-Man: Remastered so you can catch up on the whole story so far before Spider-Man 2 releases this October.
In Nintendo Switch land, you can save a few dollars on best sellers like Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, Animal Crossing New Horizons, Zelda: Breath of the Wild, and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. These best-selling games also happen to be some of the best games ever made, so if you're missing any of these in your collection, you can scoop them up today.
And don't overlook Wild Hearts, which is a fantastic time if you're a fan of the Monster Hunter series. Wild Hearts fuses building mechanics with the classic hunting loop, and it's also hard as heck. I played through the main story earlier this year and really enjoyed it.
Preorder Nintendo Direct First-Party Games
We got a pretty great Nintendo Direct last month, featuring a ton of new first-party Nintendo Switch games that already have release dates for 2023. You can preorder all of these games right now, including new 2D platformer Super Mario Bros. Wonder, a remake of Super Mario RPG, WarioWare Move It, Pikmin 4, the physical edition of Pikmin 1 + 2, Detective Pikachu Returns, and Everybody 1-2-Switch. It's a pretty great first-party lineup for a console in it's seventh full year, and I personally can't wait for the pair of Mario titles coming at the end of the year.
Save on Two of Rockstar's Best Games Ever
Both Red Dead Redemption 2 and Grand Theft Auto V are on sale today at Best Buy. These are two of the greatest open world games ever made, and while the wait for Grand Theft Auto 6 could still be a long one, these two games have more than enough content to tide you over. I'm playing through Red Dead Redemption 2 for the first time right now, and I'm pretty blown away by its attention to detail, exploration, and organic discovery. I'm finding it to be a great followup to Tears of the Kingdom, which I was worried would make every other game look not as appealing after finishing. But Red Dead 2 is keeping the good times rolling, and I really recommend it.
Up to 20% Off Steam Deck
The Steam Summer Sale just started and one of the biggest news from that event is up to 20% discount on all Steam Deck models. More specifically, the 64GB model is 10% off, the 256GB model is 15% off, and the 512GB is 20% off. The Steam Deck is portable gaming system that lets you play almost every game available in Steam's library on the go. Short of getting a gaming laptop or paying $700 for an ASUS ROG Ally, there's nothing else like it out there. Check out our IGN Steam Deck review more more details.
Xbox Wireless Headset for 22% Off
This official Xbox headset works across the last two generations of Xbox consoles. It has 15 hours of battery life and works with Dolby Atmos, Windows Sonic, and more. It pairs directly to your console with Xbox Wireless radio with no need for cables.
Get The Super Mario Bros. Movie 4K UHD for 13% Off
The Super Mario Bros. Movie was a fun nostalgia trip for longtime fans and a colorful roller coaster ride for kids, and you can take the movie home now in this 4K UHD, Blu-ray, and Digital combo pack. It's a couple bucks off today, so if you've been wanting to own the Mario movie for yourself, now's the time to jump in.
Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children for $17
Final Fantasy VII fans are feasting right now. From 2020's Remake, to 2021's DLC, to last year's Crisis Core remake, to next year's Rebirth, there's so much going on right now in Midgar. So, you may be nostalgic for the Final Fantasy VII Advent Children movie that adds to the story of the original. Or, you may want to catch up on it for the first time if you're newer to the Final Fantasy VII series. Either way, you can save a bundle on the 4K UHD, Blu-ray, and Digital combo pack of the Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children movie. It features a remastered presentation of the Complete extended cut, along with production featurettes and shorts.

Flexispot Electric Standing Desk for Under $159.99
For a limited time, Amazon is offering a Flexispot 55"x28" Electric Standing Desk with a single piece maple desktop surface for only $159.99. It's originally $239.99, but there's a $20 coupon you can clip on the product page and an additional 25% off coupon code "25L1D8JC" that you will have to apply manually during checkout. The Flexispot desktop surface measures 55x28". Unlike some of the other cheap desks on Amazon that uses a split top surface for easier packaging, this is a single piece with no seams. The 1" thick desktop is sturdy enough to support up to 187 pounds, so people with heavy full-tower PCs and 48" displays (like myself) won't have to worry. The legs are made of steel of support. The single electric motor lift mechanism offers height adjustment from 28" to 47.6", at a speed of 1" per second. The controls are simple; it's a 2-button affair for raising and lowering the lift. Flexispot covers this product with a 5 year warranty on the frame and motor and a 2 year warranty on just about everything else.

As part of an Early Prime Day event, you can pick these same buds up for only $34.99. These inexpensive true wireless earbuds feature 12mm drivers, dual micrphones, and a voice detection accelerometer. Battery life is up to 5 hours of continuous music playback, but it does including a charging case that increases your total playtime to 20 hours. It also features multipoint Bluetooth pairing so you can connect up to two different devices and switch between them easily. It works seamless with Alexa and Audible.
