You have unwrapped all your presents and found a treasure trove of gift cards and cash that is already burning a hole in your pocket.
There's one video game you've been waiting to buy since it came out and now's the chance.
Here is your guide to the best deals on video games this Boxing Day.
JB HI-FI has great deals on some of the biggest games of the year and some from the last few years as well.
The prices on PlayStation games and accessories have been cut with recently crowned Game of the Year Astro Bot going for $79, last year's Marvel's Spider-Man 2 for $69 and new PS5 DualSense controllers for $89.
Stellar Blade and Helldivers 2, two of the biggest surprises of the year in gaming, are $79 and $39, respectively, at JB, while gaming juggernaut Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 is going for $32 off at $67.
The Xbox Series X Digital is on sale for $629 for those looking to buy a new console. However, the digital edition doesn't have a disc drive, so you can't buy physical games for it.
For the younger gamers in the household, the Nintendo Switch OLED Model is $499 and comes with Mario Kart 8 Deluxe and 12 months of Nintendo Switch Online.
Video game retailer EB Games has some great deals on Xbox controllers. A carbon black or robot white controller will cost $69, while other colours in the range will cost $74.
EB also has deals on preowned consoles. For example, you can pick up a refurbished Nintendo Switch for $288 or a PS4 Slim for $198.
The digital PlayStation store has also launched their January sale where you can get my most played game of the year (and favourite), Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth, for $57.47, a 50 per cent discount.
The game is the latest release from the Like a Dragon series (formerly known as the Yakuza games) and takes place in Japan and Hawaii.
Full of nostalgia for older games in the series but also welcoming to new players, the game will leave you in stitches and tears in equal measure.
Outside of the sales the biggest new piece of tech available to Australians in 2024 is undoubtedly the Steam Deck.
The Steam Deck is essentially a handheld PC connected to the biggest digital storefront for games in the world.
Originally released to the world in 2022, Aussie gamers had been stuck waiting for a local release or buy from importers until this year.
The cheapest Steam Deck will set you back $649 and comes with 256GB of memory, with the most expensive costing $1049 with 1TB of space and an OLED screen.
