Sony Introduces PS5 and Accessories Rental Service in the UK
The program offers flexible monthly plans through leasing firm Raylo, allowing players to rent consoles and accessories without upfront costs.
- Sony has partnered with leasing company Raylo to launch a PS5 rental service in the UK through the PlayStation Direct website.
- Players can rent PS5 models, including the Digital Edition, Standard Edition, and PS5 Pro, as well as accessories like the PSVR2, PS Portal, and DualSense Edge controller.
- Rental plans are available on rolling monthly contracts or fixed 12-, 24-, or 36-month terms, with longer commitments offering lower monthly fees.
- At the end of the lease, customers can return the device, continue renting, or explore options to purchase the hardware outright, though monthly payments do not contribute to ownership.
- While the service provides an affordable entry point for those unable to pay upfront, long-term rentals may cost more than purchasing the products outright.
