Sony Ignites the Console Market with Massive PS5 Sale Sony has just declared its maiden PS5 sale, unveiling an impressive price reduction of approximately 16% for their coveted gaming console across a number of international markets. Gamers in the UK, India, Ireland, and Germany are set to benefit from the considerable markdown.

PS5 Price Plunge in UK, Ireland, Germany and India

In the UK, the beloved PS5 console has taken a dip, now retailing for £399.99 – a sharp fall from its usual £479.99 tag and even below its initial launch price of £449.99, prior to a global price hike outside the US last year.

Sony’s £75 off bonanza in the UK is an immediate effect and will run until the 10th of August. The gaming powerhouse is also trimming €75 off the PS5 price in Germany. Amazon Germany is further sweetening the deal, offering the PS5 for a steal at €459.99, down from its typical €549.99 price, valid until August 7th. Gamers in Ireland and Austria can also enjoy a €75 reduction, while Indian customers are in for a hefty ₹7,500 discount.

Impressive Sales and Forecast for PS5

This price drop campaign comes hot on the heels of Sony’s announcement of having successfully sold 40 million PS5 consoles since its 2020 debut. The company has reported a considerable boost in PS5 shipments this year, tripling the number of consoles delivered from January to March at 6.3 million units, compared to 2 million units during the same timeframe last year.

Rumours of a Slimmer PS5 Model on the Horizon

Interestingly, the temporary PS5 price reduction precedes speculations of a potential announcement of a PS5 Slim model. Gaming insiders revealed last year that Sony might be gearing up for a September 2023 launch of a PS5 version with a detachable disc drive.

During the FTC v. Microsoft hearing recently, Microsoft referenced these rumours, predicting that the PS5 Slim could retail at $399.99. If these predictions are spot-on, the PS5 Slim would retain the same price point as the PS5 Digital Edition, with the added bonus of offering users the option to include a disc drive at a later date.
