Looking for the best racing video game and game accessory deals to come out of Prime Early Access 2022? Well, look no further. If you want to save on some gaming gear then check out this list below with some of the best October Prime Day deals we could find. We'll be keeping this list updated throughout the sale, so check back often! If you want to see the automotive deals we've tracked down, check out our official best early automotive accessory deals post right here, which will also be continually updated throughout the end of the event.
Be sure to double check the compatibility of any game or accessory with your current console or PC before purchase. If you're looking to upgrade from a last-gen console, there's a chance you can pick up a new Xbox Series X or Playstation 5, but believe it or not, availability for these consoles is still pretty limited nearly 2 years after release; particularly for the Playstation, so you'll probably need a fair bit of luck. Thankfully, though, the majority of games being released are still cross-generational as to not leave the Xbox One and PS4 players behind. If you prefer Nintendo games, you can pick up a Switch right here as well.
Keep in mind, this sale is only for Amazon Prime members. If you aren't a member yet, you can sign up for a 30 day free trial right here.
'Forza Horizon 5': Standard Edition (Xbox and PC) - From $51.48
"Forza Horizon 5" is basically the modern-day champ of open world racing games. Sitting at a fantastic overall score of 92 on Metacritic, this Microsoft-exclusive racer takes players to Mexico to live out their racing dreams. Much like past "Horizon" games, this one gives players a huge variety of cars to choose from (over 500), a ton of tracks nestled in unique environments, a fun (if overall insignificant) storyline, and of course, a metric ton of customization options. If you're not looking for anything specific, but rather just a great overall racer, this should be your pick, assuming you play on an Xbox or PC. If you like the sound of this but can't swing the 40 bucks, take a look at "Forza Horizon 4," another great game in the series, available now for a crazy low $22.80.
'Gran Turismo' 7 25th Anniversary Edition (Playstation 5 disc and Playstation 4 entitlement) - $69.99 (22% off)
"Gran Turismo" is to Playstation what "Forza" is to Xbox, so it should be no surprise that if you play on a Sony system and you haven't yet picked up the latest "GT" game, that should probably be your go-to choice. In Autoblog's review of the game, we called it "a real contender for best in the series" thanks to its top-tier graphics, a healthy, balanced car list and deluge of things to do in-game. This listing comes with both PS4 and PS5 versions of the game, but if you're playing on a PS5 with the Dualsense controller, you'll even get to experience some awesome haptic feedback features, allowing you to feel the road like never before. If you're a Playstation gamer who's been dragging your feet on "GT7," now is a great time to give it a try.
'F1 2022' (Playstation, Xbox and PC) - From $40.49 (42% off)
"F1 2022" is a great racing simulator for those who can't get enough of Formula 1. It feels fast to play, it's got plenty of sim elements if you like getting into the nitty gritty of the management side of things, and it even has a VR mode if you're playing on PC and have a headset laying around. Depending on what system you're playing on, you can grab this one for around $35 to $45 right now.
'GRID Legends' (Playstation, Xbox and PC) - From $14.99 (up to 75% off)
"GRID Legends" is another great "all-arounder" racing gaming and this one isn't exclusive to one console or the other. This one is firmly more on the "arcade" side rather than the "sim" side, but we think it's all the better for it. It's got an engaging and fun single-player story mode as well as cross-play capability for multiplayer, so whether you're a solo racer or like tearing up the track with friends, this one will be a solid choice. Depending on which console you'll be playing the game on, you could save up to 75%, which is an absolute steal for a game this fun.
