More's Law is dead claims that...

1) PlayStation stocked up a pile of PS5's (they where planning for a big holiday push).
2) They bought a sh*t ton of GDDR5 while the price's were still low, and got a good deal back then.
So they should be fine production wise, for many months to come yet (think half a year or more, upwards of a full year).
Unaffected by price increase on ram currently going on.

Meanwhile...

Leaker says Xbox Series prices may increase again due to severe RAM shortages:

https://thegamepost.com/leaker-xbox-series-prices-increase-ram-shortages-microsoft-soon/

There's supposedly a leaker that says Xbox didn't plan ahead very well... and got caught off guard by the increase of ram prices.
Which could result in them potentially doing a slight price increase again.

This is gonna be a brutal holiday's for xbox, if they are keeping prices as is.... and potentially raising them again in early 2026.

Death by a thousand butcher knife cuts.

Pounds to USD (I'm in the USA) would be about $389.53. That's about $10 cheaper than the current USA Black Friday price.
Not bad prices given tariffs raising the prices recently.

There doesn’t seem to be a particular need for Sony to do this since Xbox is basically dead. Maybe they are gearing up for closer competition with Nintendo and potentially Valve.

it's SFr 299 at the local Mediamarkt. Saw a few people walk out with it on Saturday. No walkers with XBoxes, mainly because there wasn' a single XBox on any shelves. Just a few controlers, games and game pss vouchers on a lonely shelf.

Other PS5 items were seriously discounted as well. Sony losing tons of money on the deal (there is no way you can make a PS5 for under $300 end slae price. Small discounts on Switch2s only.

Honestly pretty tempted as well.
I doubt it'll get any cheaper, and I don't think next gen will be cheap either.
