Sony Confirms PS5 Price Increase in Europe, Australia, and New Zealand – Effective Today
PS5 prices just went up in Europe, Australia & NZ. PS5 Pro stays put, Disc Drive drops. Full new pricing details inside.
The gaming industry is facing a rough patch. From mass layoffs and cancelled projects to studio closures and rising costs, the pressure is being felt across the board. And it’s not just software taking the hit — hardware prices are starting to climb too.
Recently, rumors have been heating up about a potential price hike for the highly anticipated Nintendo Switch 2. While nothing is confirmed on that front, one thing is certain: Sony has officially announced a price increase for the PlayStation 5 in multiple regions.
PS5 Price Increase in Europe, Australia, and New Zealand
Sony has now confirmed updated recommended retail prices for the PS5 in the UK, across Europe, Australia, and New Zealand. In its official statement, Sony also noted that other EMEA regions not explicitly listed may also be affected, suggesting a broader pricing adjustment across select markets.
If you’re in a region not directly mentioned, it’s a good idea to check with local retailers to confirm whether these changes apply to you.
- Europe
- PS5 Digital Edition – €499.99
- No pricing changes for the standard PS5 with Ultra HD Blu-ray disc drive
- UK
- PS5 Digital Edition – £429.99
- No pricing changes for the standard PS5 with Ultra HD Blu-ray disc drive
- Australia:
- Standard PS5 with Ultra HD Blu-ray disc drive – AUD $829.95
- PS5 Digital Edition – AUD $749.95
- New Zealand
- Standard PS5 with Ultra HD Blu-ray disc drive – NZD $949.95
- PS5 Digital Edition – NZD $859.95
But it’s not all bad news. In the same announcement, Sony shared a couple of silver linings. The PS5 Pro RRP remains unchanged which is a relief, considering how steep its price already is. Even better, the PS5 Disc Drive will actually see a price decrease, offering a small win for players looking for this setup.
- Europe €79.99
- UK £69.99
- Australia AUD $124.95
- New Zealand NZD $139.95
These new prices are effective starting today, April 14.
