Digest more
With PlayStation set to increase PS5 console prices this week, this Call of Duty PS5 Slim bundle deal offers even better value now.
Sony on Wednesday said it is bumping up the price of PlayStation 5 video game consoles by $50 in the United States due to a "challenging economic environment."
Every PlayStation 5 model is about to get $50 more expensive because of tariffs.
Each of the three current models of the PS5 consoles will go up by $50. That means the PS5 Digital Edition will be $500 instead of $450; the standard PS5 (with Blu-ray optical drive) will be $550 instead of $500; and the high-end PS5 Pro will be $750 instead of $700.
Before the hike gets into gear, you still have the option to grab a cheaper version. Deals hunter Wario 64 pointed out that the PS5 Slim model Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 bundle still costs $400. Along with the $80 optical drive, it could be the cheapest way to get the stock standard PS5 before tomorrow’s price hikes.
Sony has announced price rises for the PlayStation 5, PlayStation 5 Digital Edition and PlayStation 5 Pro that will go into effect within the U.S. tomorrow, August 21.
Sony is falling in step with other manufacturers and announcing price increases for its PlayStation 5 line. Here's how much they'll cost you now.
PS5 games that normally cost $60 are on sale for just $6 for a limited time, thanks to a new PlayStation Store sale.
