Sony raises PlayStation 5 prices in Europe citing 'challenging' economic environment
Sony said it has made the "tough decision" to raise prices against the "backdrop of a challenging economic environment."
Sony hiked the price of its flagship PlayStation 5 console in Europe, Australia and New Zealand, citing a "challenging economic environment" behind its move.
In Europe, the PS5 Digital Edition will now cost 499.99 euros ($569.9), Sony said in a blog post on Sunday. That is up from a previous price of 449.99 euros. The company said the U.K. recommended retail price is £429.99, a rise from the previous price of £389.99.
