2021 marks the first-year anniversary of the PlayStation 5, Sony's newest and most powerful gaming console yet. Arriving in November 2020, the console was enhanced by its backwards compatibility with the award-winning PlayStation 4 library and a few next-gen games such as Spider-Man: Miles Morales and Demon's Souls. Since then, the library has continued to grow with PS5 console-exclusive games such as Deathloop, Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart, and Returnal. If you're shopping for someone who already has one of the highly sought-after PS5 consoles--or you still plan to get them one--there's no shortage of accessories, games, and merchandise that you can purchase to go along with that hardware. We've rounded up the best PS5 and PS4 gifts for 2021. Many of the games featured in this roundup have PS4 versions as well, so you can shop for all of the PlayStation fans in your life.
Starting with games, let's take a look at some of the notable 2021 releases that PlayStation users might like to see under the tree this year.
The latest console to bear the PlayStation brand and legacy, the PlayStation 5 has been a sought-after item since its launch in November 2020. Arriving with several great games such as Demon's Souls, Spider-Man: Miles Morales, and Sackboy: A Big Adventure, the PS5 also has a number of other interesting features in the hardware department. For starters, its unique design gives it a next-gen look that stands apart from anything else on the market, and games load at lightning-fast speeds thanks to its solid-state drive.
While games naturally look breathtaking on it, how those titles feel when you play them is nothing short of amazing thanks to the DualSense controller. Even better, the PS5 is backwards compatible with almost every single game released on the PlayStation 4 console, all of which adds up to create a system which has a massive library of games ready to play at any given moment.

Depending on how you consume games, the PlayStation 5 Digital Edition console might suit your tastes better. The most obvious difference here from its big brother console is the exclusion of the disc drive, leading to a more sleek and svelte design. This means that you'll only be able to buy your games digitally, usually from the PlayStation Store or by adding funds to your account gift cards from online retailers such as Amazon.
Otherwise, the console is exactly the same as the more expensive PS5. It has the same SSD, the same hardware powering its games, and the same capacity for streaming movies and TV series. If you're fine with adopting a digital lifestyle, then this version of the PS5 is worth looking at.
*It also remains hard to find a PS5 Digital. Just like the PS5, PS5 Digital restocks sell out fast, but it will be restocked during Black Friday as well.

Sony's DualSense controller is a marvel of haptic feedback and attractive design.

If you don't like the standard white color scheme, the good news is that the DualSense is also available in

If you're planning to buy someone in your family or social circle a PlayStation-related gift, you can't go wrong with a gift card that's loaded with funds.

Perfect for either PS5 console, you'll be able to grab a gift card that has a minimum of $10 loaded onto it and maxes out at $100.

Another great way to play games digitally and without having to wait for a download to complete, is through the PlayStation Now on-demand service. With a robust library that's being constantly updated, a subscription to PlayStation Now will allow you to start streaming content through your console. You'll need a decent internet connection to get the best out of PlayStation Now, but the service has proven to be a reliable method for accessing new games when you don't feel like venturing outside to pick up those interactive titles.

As advanced as the SSD is in the PS5, there's no escaping the fact that it fills up with space pretty quickly thanks to the high demands of modern games. Fortunately you can expand on that available storage space with a PS5-ready NVMe SSD drive, with Western Digital's 1TB model having the heatsink necessary to ensure that it doesn't overheat during the middle of some intense competition.
