Sony have finally unveiled the essential information around the release of its next-gen PlayStation 5,
Here's what you need to know:
PS5 Price
The leaks from Amazon France several months ago were verified this evening. It's no surprise that Sony has matched Microsoft in pricing its product.
- PS5 Standard Edition: $499.99 / €499.99 / £449.99 / ¥49,980
- PS5 Digital Edition: $399.99 / €399.99 / £359.99 / ¥39,980
This makes the Digital Edition an excellent entry point to next-gen consoles, with a median price between the standard PS5 and the Xbox Series S, which will sell for $299.
The big difference is that the Series S has less-powerful hardware than the Series X, while the PS5 Digital Edition brings the same specs, just without the disc-drive.
PS5 Release Date
The PlayStation 5 will release on November 12 in the US, Japan, Canada, Mexico, Australia, New Zealand and South Korea.
Then, the console will be realeased on November 19 in the rest of the world.
PS5 Preorders
According to Geoff Keighley, preorders will start tomorrow, September 17, at select retailers.
