Sony is raising PS5 prices by $100 in April
Sony is raising the price of its PlayStation 5 consoles globally starting April 2nd. In an announcement on Friday, Sony says that the standard PS5 will now cost $649.99, up from $549.99. Meanwhile, the PS5 Digital Edition now costs $599.99 instead of $499.99, and the PlayStation 5 Pro will cost $899.99 instead of $749.99.
Along with these changes, Sony is increasing the price of its PlayStation Portal as well, going from $199.99 to $249.99.
This is the second time in less than a year that Sony has raised the price of its PS5 consoles, as the company hiked prices by $50 for all three models last August. Sony cites “continued pressures in the global economic landscape” as the reason for the price hike.
