PS5 is getting a price increase across Europe and Australia, as we’re sure you’ve already heard.
Sony attributes the current “difficult economic conditions,” a situation many recognize as challenging globally. However, it’s intriguing to consider why these circumstances seem to disproportionately impact regions outside of the US. Notably, this is the second time prices have been raised exclusively for Europe and Australia.
For enthusiasts of traditional games, here’s a piece of positive news: the prominent Japanese company is, in fact, lowering the cost of its Ultra HD Blu-ray disc player.
According to today’s article, the price for this extra item has been adjusted to £69.99 (UK), €79.99 (EU), AUD $124.95 (AU), or NZD $139.95 (NZ). This change represents a substantial savings of £30 in the UK.
Given that no price increase is anticipated for the PS5 Pro, it means upgrading now could be more budget-friendly, especially for those who prefer physical games and want a disc drive as well. This might also imply that Sony continues to support traditional, boxed game options for consumers.
So, depending on your specific situation, there’s a small sliver of positivity to be found here.
Typically, as the PlayStation 5 ages, its price tends to increase, which isn’t beneficial for the brand, console gaming in general, or consumers specifically.
