Although the PlayStation 5 was released a few years ago in Nov. 2020, Sony has recently announced an upcoming price increase to the company’s flagship gaming console line, including the PS5 with Disc Drive, PS5 Digital Edition, PS5 Pro and PlayStation Portal. Starting on April 2, each product will see at least a $100 price rise due to global economic pressures, so if you’ve been on the fence about upgrading to the current PS5 generation, there’s no better time to buy the gaming console before it gets even more expensive.

PlayStation 5 – $549.99 PlayStation 5 Digital Edition – $499.99 PlayStation 5 Pro – $749.99 PlayStation 5 Portal – $199.99With most video game console generations, prices usually decrease over time, but because of issues with global markets due to U.S. tariffs and an an unprecedented surge in RAM memory prices, Sony has decided to increase prices for their gaming products across the board. Sony is not alone in raising the price of consoles, Nintendo already increased the price of the original Nintendo Switch last year with fans speculating that the same will happen with the Switch 2. Microsoft also raised the prices of Xbox consoles, controllers, and headsets in May last year.
As of April 2, the base line PS5 will jump $100 from its current retail rate at $550 to $650, the digital edition will rise from $499 to $599 ($100 increase) and the PlayStation 5 Pro will have an even larger increase jumping from $750 to $900 ($150 increase). The PlayStation Portal remote player will also see a $50 increase from $200 to $250.
“With continued pressures in the global economic landscape, we’ve made the decision to increase the prices of PS5, PS5 Pro, and PlayStation Portal remote player globally,” Isabelle Tomatis, Sony Interactive Entertainment’s vice president of global marketing said in a PlayStation blog post published Friday. “We know that price changes impact our community, and after careful evaluation, we found this was a necessary step to ensure we can continue delivering innovative, high-quality gaming experiences to players worldwide.”
