Amazon Is Having a Secret Sale on Video Games and Gear

If you haven’t heard about Amazon Prime Day, you’ve been living under a rock. But we wouldn’t blame you for not knowing about the more low-key sales Bezos & Co. puts on. In fact, these are typically some of our favorite sales from the mega-retailer.

Case in point: For a few more days (until May 4), you can shop Amazon Gaming Week, with deep discounts on gaming laptops, accessories, and of course, plenty of video games. Whether you’re a seasoned gamer in need of an upgrade, a rookie working on kitting out your gaming set-up, or someone in between, you shouldn’t miss up to 64 percent on editor-tested gear.

Gaming is more fun when you’re armed with gear that makes playing efficient. Whether you need a new mouse, a headset, or even a mobile controller to maximize your phone gaming skills, plenty of hardware upgrades are up for grabs.
