Price increase for the PlayStation 5
The console is still not readily available. However, there will be a price increase for the PlayStation 5.
Sony launched the PlayStation 5 in November 2020. There were two editions. With a disc and without a disc. With the latter you can only download and play games digitally.
The PS5 without disc was the cheapest of the two at 400 euros. The version with disk had an additional cost of one hundred euros and cost 500 euros. Sony has maintained these prices for almost two years.
A lot has changed in the meantime. The console is still difficult to deliver, but the production materials have become even scarcer and more expensive. As a result, Sony feels compelled to implement a price increase.
The PlayStation 5 price increase means that you have to pay five bucks more. The version with disc will cost you 550 euros and the version without 450 euros. Because the console is still so difficult to obtain, you do not have to count on a discount from retailers in the coming period.
A sour apple for gamers who have been wanting to buy a PS5 for a while. The assignment has not become less difficult, but more expensive. The price increase affects gamers all over the world, as the console has become more expensive in all regions.
