Rumor: the price of the PlayStation 5 may be reduced
Representatives of the portal Gamereactor, referring to their sources close to Sony, said that the Japanese company is going to reduce prices for the fifth PlayStation. Thus, the developers of the console want to keep up with the Xbox Series S and keep the same attractiveness not only due to their exclusives, but also because of the good price.
The original PlayStation 5 without a floppy drive was supposed to cost $ 499, while Microsoft is asking for an Xbox Series X with a floppy drive. According to the assumptions of analysts and other users, the cost of a full-fledged PlayStation 5 should have been $ 549 or higher.
The most interesting point in this whole situation is the statement by Gamereactor about the likely change in the price of the PlayStation 5, which should please players. An insider said that the digital version of the PlayStation could be downgraded to $ 399, while a set-top box with a floppy drive will cost $ 499. According to available information, Sony has not yet made any final decision on pricing.
2 days ago, Microsoft revealed what many video game fans and, in particular, Xbox fans were expecting - the release date of the next console and the price. Xbox Series X will be released on November 10, and the cost of a full-fledged next generation console, as mentioned earlier, will be $ 499. The younger version of the Xbox Series, referred to as the Xbox Seres S, will cost $ 100 less, and can also be purchased on November 10th.
