Bäh, that's not good news. Sony apparently believes that you could pull a little more coal from the Playstation and increase prices in some territories.
That's not nice. Sony has announced that it will again brew around the prices of PlayStation 5 and not in favor of the players. The digital edition of PlayStation 5 will therefore cost 499.99 euros in Europe in the future, increased by 449.99 euros so far. And the price also increases in England, from 389.99 to £ 429.99.
This increases the price of the drive -free console for the second time since the launch. The console had still cost 399.99 euros. After all, from the standard edition of the console, Sony will at least initially keep his fingers - its RRP remains at 549.99 euros. And the price of the PlayStation 5 Pro remains unchanged for the time being, but it is already expensive enough.
After all, there is good news: The price of the external drive for the PS5 in Europe now drops to 79.99 euros from ZUVOIR 119.99 euros.
In addition to Europe, price increases for the Sony consoles are also available in Australia and New Zealand. Both the digital and the standard edition are affected there. Price increases in other territories are currently not excluded from Sony.
In a statement on the officialPlayStation-BlogExplained Isabelle Tomatis, Vice President of Global Marketing with her: "Against the background of a difficult economic environment, including high inflation and fluctuating exchange rates, she made the difficult decision, the recommended sales price (RRP) of the PlayStation 5 console in selected markets in Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA) and in Austria to raise.
