Miss out on all the Prime Day deals? Fear not–Best Buy is giving you a second chance to cash in on low prices with its annual Fourth of July event. An incredibly long list of items are discounted right now, spanning everything from video games and headsets to prebuilt gaming PCs and iPads. We’ve sifted through them all, and below you’ll find our favorites. Keep in mind that these prices will disappear on July 5, so be sure to carve out some time before the fireworks to see if anything on your wishlist is included.
Video Games
There’s a pretty impressive list of video games on sale during Best Buy’s Fourth of July event. If you haven’t yet played Borderlands 4, now is a great time to add the chaotic looter-shooter to your catalog. Best Buy has it for $35 (was $50), and the open-world game offers hundreds of hours of adventure. It’s not perfect, but if you’re seeking frantic combat or fun cooperative action, it’s a good choice at this new price.
A bunch of RPGs are seeing nice deals, too, including Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake for $20 (was $40), Octopath Traveler 0 for $35 (was $50), and Final Fantasy VII Rebirth for $20 (was $50). If you prefer nightmare-inducing games, Resident Evil Requiem is just $56 (was $70). That’s one of the lowest prices we’ve seen since the game dropped in February. Our review gave it an 8/10, saying it makes a handful of tweaks to the usual formula that result in a big impact on overall playability.
Other great discounts include Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4 for $30 (was $50) and WWE 2K26 for $45 (was $70). If nothing on our list of favorites catches your eye, consider perusing the full catalog–there’s a massive list of games worth checking out.

PC Gaming
Let’s be honest–this isn’t the best time to be shopping for a gaming PC. Component prices are soaring due to the ongoing AI frenzy, making PC gaming more expensive than it’s ever been. However, Best Buy does have a few good offers for high-end prebuilts, giving you a chance to save over $600. One stand out deal is the Alienware Aurora Desktop for $2,350 (was $3,180). It has plenty of storage, heaps of RAM, and top-tier processors–so while it’s expensive, it should be pretty futureproof.
There are a bunch of good PC accessories too, with several gaming mice and keyboards from Alienware, Acer, and Asus represented in the Fourth of July sale. If you’re an MMO buff seeking a mouse upgrade, the Asus ROG Spatha X Wireless is $114 (was $150). Featuring 12 programmable buttons (many of which are large, easy-to-press side buttons), a magnetic charging stand, and the ROG 19,000 dpi sensor, it’s a solid companion for World of Warcraft, The Elder Scrolls Online, and Guild Wars 2.
Over on the keyboard side of things, the popular Razer Huntsman V2 TKL Wired Keyboard is $80 (was $150). The lack of a keypad frees up space on your desk for sweeping mouse movements, and Razer made sure to pack the board with its usual assortment of programmable RGB lights. Doubleshot PBT caps provide extra durability, while its 8,000Hz polling rate provides low latency that’s overkill for just about every situation you’ll encounter.

Gaming Accessories
While there aren’t any notable deals for first-party controllers like Joy-Con or DualSense, plenty of notable third-party options are cheap. For Switch and PC, the 8BitDo Ultimate Bluetooth Controller is a popular choice–and that’s even more true now that it’s $55 (was $70). Along with programmable back buttons and Hall Effect joysticks (to help prevent drifting), it comes bundled with a useful charging dock. For Xbox and PC, the Scuf Valor Pro Wireless Controller is $150 (was $190). This is essentially an alternative to the Elite Series 2, featuring adjustable instant triggers, four programmable back buttons, and TMR thumbsticks (which tend to be even better than Hall Effect).
Mobile gamers can pick up the Scuf Nomad Wireless Mobile Gaming Controller (iOS) for $40 (was $70). If you find yourself playing intense mobile games on the road (such as Guild Wars Reforged or Diablo Immortal), check it out now that it’s cheap. It sits on both sides of your phone, turning it into something akin to a Nintendo Switch. Hall Effect sticks and customizable rear paddles make it a pretty durable and versatile choice under $50.
As for headsets, there’s a wealth of options to choose from. This includes the affordable Turtle Beach Atlas 200 Wired Headset for $55 (was $70), all the way up to the premium Turtle Beach Stealth 700 Gen 3 Wireless Headset for $150 (was $200).
- 8BitDo Ultimate Bluetooth Controller (Switch, PC) — $55 (

Apple
If you’ve ever been shopping for an Apple product, you know they rarely go on sale. So while most of the current price cuts at Best Buy are around $50, they’re nothing to scoff at. iPads are the big deal of this sale, with a variety of models and colors seeing nice discounts. Consider picking up the iPad Pro 13-Inch (M5 Chip, 512GB, WiFi) while it’s $100 under MSRP, or the more affordable iPad 11-Inch (A16, 128GB, WiFi + Cellular) for $579 (was $599). We’ve only listed a handful of models below, but there are dozens of configurations getting deals at Best Buy for the Fourth of July.
There’s also a nice discount on Apple AirPods Max 2, which are $499 (was $549). These were a bit cheaper on Prime Day, but a discount is a discount.
- Apple AirPods Max 2 — $499 (
$549) - iPad Pro 11-Inch (M5 Chip, 256GB, WiFi) — $1,149 (
