Sony has announced new PS4 bundles coming on Black Friday, November 28. The new deals keep the same $399 price for the console, while also adding additional games to the package.

The first bundle will be available for $399 and includes the 500GB PS4 and a copy of "GTA 5." Rockstar Games will be launching GTA 5 for Xbox One and PS4 on November 18, with several large improvements for the next-generation of consoles.

Reports already claim a 1.18GB download is needed to access GTA 5 on PS4. Rockstar has worked on graphical fidelity, more cars and NPCs, better draw distance and wildlife.

Microsoft will also offer a GTA 5 Xbox One bundle on Black Friday. Both console manufacturers are looking for similar results to last generation, with GTA 5 selling more than 30 million copies on Xbox 360 and PS3.

Sony will exclusively offer The Last of Us remastered bundle on PS4 for the same price, $399. The Last of Us has seen similar success, but not as highly sold as GTA 5. The remastered version brought new graphical quality to the game.

There will also be two "kids" editions of the PS4 bundles, both for $399. One will include LEGO Batman 3: Beyond Gotham, the other LittleBigPlanet 3, which is set to release on November 18, like GTA 5.

Sony Vice President of Platforms Marketing John Koller warned users that these sales "will not last long" and customers should check local retailers, if the online option goes out of stock on Amazon and other online stores.

The PS4 continues to be the best seller worldwide, but this month, Microsoft topped the U.S. charts with the Xbox One. Microsoft has introduced two price-drops to the Xbox One in the past year, to match the PS4 - the latest Black Friday price drop puts the Xbox One $50 cheaper than the PS4.
