Sony Raises PS5 Digital Edition Price in Select Markets to €499.99

The price adjustment, effective April 14, 2025, comes as Sony cites inflation and currency fluctuations; other PS5 models remain unchanged, with a price cut for the standalone disc drive.

  • Sony has increased the price of the PS5 Digital Edition to €499.99 in Europe, the Middle East, the UK, Australia, and New Zealand, effective immediately.
  • The standard PS5 with a disc drive and the PS5 Pro models retain their respective prices of €549.99 and €799.99.
  • The standalone disc drive for the PS5 has seen a price reduction of approximately €40, now priced at €79.99.
  • Sony attributes the price adjustments to economic challenges, including high inflation and fluctuating exchange rates.
  • Retailers may still have limited stock at the previous prices, creating a brief window for consumers to purchase at the earlier rates.
