Forums - Sony Discussion - Leaked Price of PS5 - MAJOR GRAIN OF SALT

Carrefour France may have leaked the price of PS5 and it aligns with my prediction of 399 for discless and 499 with disc.

I would still probably get the disc version but that price point is pretty hype for digital

The same rumor for months. I'm surprised sONY has not just comfirmed it. Everybody seems to be expecting this prices.

I feel like if you shop around and buy a lot of games, you'll wind up saving at least 100. To me an all digital console really only makes sense if you're going to use it exclusively for PSNow or Gamepass.

Some people only look for the short time saving.

Pretty much! Amazon, Bestbuy and Walmart do their E3 Pre-order sale where I can order yet to be released games at a discount. FFVIIR for example. I got around $50 during that sale compared to the usual $80 price at launch. Ik Ik, CAD sucks.

Wanted to go digital for my XBox One, since I wanted it only for Gamepass, don't generally play MS exclusives, and figured I could buy any games I wanted on the PS4. But it wound up being cheaper to get a console with a disc drive. Good thing, because I didn't realize that once games are taken off of gamepass you can't play them even if you'd previously downloaded them.



£349 and £449, damn the former is cheap. But myself prefer disks, the installs were quicker. Took me three hours to download Odyssey yesterday, screw that.



That looks more like a place holder price based on everyone's best guess.



I'm getting the disc version, despite the majority of my purchases being digital, and the likelihood of the DE being $100 cheaper lol.
