- PS5 Digital Edition has seen price increases in some regions
- Price has risen in Britain, Europe, Australia and New Zealand
- However, the disk drive has seen a total reduction in the price
As of today (April 14, 2025), PlayStation 5 Digital Edition has been hit by another wave of price increases in some regions. But there is some good news for PS5 Pro owners who want to pick up the disk drive.
Sony was announced via an official PlayStation blog post that has confirmed that PS5’s award will be increased in the UK, Europe, Australia and New Zealand. The company quoted “a challenging economic environment, including high inflation and fluctuating exchange rates” as important reasons for the “tough decision.”
In the UK and Europe there have been no price changes for standard PS5. Otherwise, you can see the current changes here:
|
Europe |
PS5 Digital Edition – € 499.99 |
PS5 – No Change |
|
Uk |
PS5 Digital Edition – £ 429.99 |
PS5 – No Change |
|
Australia |
PS5 Digital Edition – AU $ 749.95 |
PS5 – AU $ 829.95 |
|
New Zealand |
PS5 Digital Edition – NZD $ 859.95 |
PS5 – NZD $ 949.95 |
In slightly better news, especially for PS5 Pro owners who want to add a physical disk setting to their setup, the price of disk driven is reduced. The new prices of the disk drives are as follows:
|
Europe |
€ 79.99 |
|
Uk |
£ 69.99 |
|
Australia |
AU $ 124.95 |
|
New Zealand |
NZD $ 139.95 |
The new awards in these regions have been reflected on the PlayStation Direct, Sony’s official store factory for PlayStation products including PS5. However, you may still be successful with other retailers if you are currently on the market for the console.
For example in the UK, Argos currently has PS5 Digital Edition bundled with Astro bot On a very wallet -friendly £ 339.99 right now. Currys is also not yet to reflect the price increase, and the PS5 Digital Edition is still available here for £ 389. If you have planned to pick up a PS5 soon, it may be a good idea to beat now before the price increases are reflected everywhere.
