Sony has announced significant price increases for its PlayStation range, starting 2nd April, which will see the cost of a base PS5 climb by around £90 in the UK. The company is blaming the price bump – which it says it’s making “after careful evaluation” – on what it calls “continued pressures in the global economic landscape”.


It’s definitely a significant move from Sony, and it will be interesting to see how gamers react to these price hikes. The economic landscape is challenging for many companies, so it makes sense they need to adjust. Thanks for sharing the update!
