Amazon Prime Day is back, only because it's October and thus the sale has to have a slightly different name, it's called Prime Big Deal Days 2026. The sale runs for two days, Oct. 6 and Oct. 7. There are a bunch of video gaming deals, but we've sorted through the listings to bring you some of the best deals on our favorite kit.
This list focuses on Xbox games, all physical editions; Prime Day deals are rare on digital games. It's a neat crop though, including a major recent release and one of Polygon's favorite games of 2026. We've also thrown in a few suggestions for accessories. Snap these up while they're still going!
Capcom's superb sci-fi action game remains one of our favorite titles of this year. It's both totally original, with an innovative hacking mechanic, and a pleasant throwback to the days of shooting up robots in space stations on the way to your next checkpoint. Plus the space-hero-and-AI-girl setup is one of the sweeter dad game storylines of late.
You don't always find such new releases among the Prime Day deals; this year's Madden only came out a couple of months ago, but it's almost 40% off, reduced from $70 to $42.99. You can even play it like Umamusume if you really want to.
If you're in the mood for some old-school adventuring, you can't do better than this wonderful remake of the classic 2001 turn-based role-playing game. The remake massively improves the original's very slow opening act while preserving those immaculately cheerful and nostalgic Dragon Quest vibes.
