- Both PS5 Slim digital and disc editions have been discounted by Amazon by up to 25%.
- You can get the disc version for $424, while the digital edition is retailing for just $370
- The PlayStation 5 Pro hasn’t been discounted and is still retailing for its original $700.
The PlayStation 5 has had to go through a difficult road to reach its current status of available supply following the shackles COVID-19 put on it. All three models of the current-gen console are readily available globally and beyond scalper control.
With Black Friday also around the corner, the console is about to get massive discounts. Amazon started this trend a week before the actual holiday, cutting off up to 25% of the base models of PlayStation 5, bringing them to almost half the cost of the Pro version.
Why This Matters: Seeing the PlayStation 5 readily available with 25% of its price shaved off is good news for consumers and will make the console even higher on the sales charts.
First up, the base PlayStation 5 with no disc drive is currently 25% off, bringing its $500 price tag to a mere $374. If this cost not being nearly half the price of PS5 Pro, you will also get the brand-new NBA 2K25 as a part of this bundle, saving you the trouble of spending on a new game.
Amazon has also discounted the PlayStation 5 slim model that comes with a disc drive. Previously, this console version was available for $500, but following Amazon’s generous discount, it is now retailing for $424, making it a steal.
Hence, whether you like to buy games online or you would like to have a physical collection of video games, Amazon has you covered. Unfortunately, the PlayStation 5 Pro is not a part of this furry of discounts and is still selling for its starting price of $700.
The recently released Sony machine is a powerhouse, with 2GB of extra DDR5 RAM as compared to the base model and an ability to handle Unreal Engine 5 titles that the slim version simply doesn’t have. Hence, the PS5 Pro is worth the price if you have the money to spend.
