buy console sony playstation5 It’s been a huge task since launch. There are very few units and the Japanese company has many stock issues. If you still have not received your PS5, we are very afraid that you will have to pay more for it.
In fact Sony announces price increase for PlayStation 5 via the company’s official blog. An increase of a sudden nature caused by the rise in world inflation.
Sony PS5 is now more expensive to buy
The company clearly stated this rise will apply to almost everyonestates on the blog the prices of the latest generation desktop console depending on the region where it is sold.
In the published document “SSony has made the difficult decision to increase the PlayStation 5 Recommended Retail Price (RRP) in certain markets in Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA), Asia-Pacific (APAC), Latin America (LATAM) and Canada. There will be no price increase in the USA,” he said. These are the official prices as of today:
Europe
- PS5 with Ultra HD Blu-ray disc drive: 549.99 euros
- PS5 Digital Edition – €449.99
As you see, In Europe it rose to 50 eurosmakes the PS5 much more expensive than its Microsoft rival. Recall that the Xbox Series X officially costs 499.99 euros, the same price as the PS5 before this increase. However, the Xbox Series S has a much more limited price of 299 euros, which could cause a drop in PlayStation 5 sales.
Why didn’t they raise the price in the United States? Well, it’s simple: Xbox sweeps sales, so raising its price drives sales down even more. The truth is, the PS5 launch couldn’t come at a worse time. On the one hand, the massive lack of stock of the console due to the component crisis.
why did this happen soaring both on console and in games and accessories. In addition to the dangers of speculation. We’ve been able to see Sony PlayStation 5 consoles doubling their price (and selling) on eBay, and all of this is having a huge impact on sales.
We’ll see how this price increase will affect it, because we’re dealing with a console that’s very hard to find and will cost a lot more than before.
