Sony has recently announced exciting discounts for PlayStation fans in Europe just in time for Christmas. According to a reliable leaker named Bilbil-kun, who has a history of accurate PlayStation leaks, Sony will be offering discounts on the PS5 Slim Standard Edition and PS5 Slim Digital Edition in Europe. These discounts are set to run from November 22nd until December 12th.
During this promotional period, the PS5 Slim Standard Edition will be reduced by at least €75, potentially going up to €80 in some countries. This means that customers can purchase the Standard Edition for €474.99 instead of the usual €549.99, while the Digital Edition will be priced at €374.99 down from €449.99. Additionally, there will be a significant €200 price cut for the PSVR2, bringing its price down to €399.99 from €599.99. Moreover, the PSVR2 Horizon Call of the Mountain Pack, which includes the VR headset and a Horizon Call of the Mountain code, will also see a price drop from €649.99 to €399.99.
It is important to note that these discounts come at a time when Sony’s console hardware sales have decreased, with 6.2 million units sold compared to 8.2 million in the same quarter last year. The introduction of the PlayStation 5 Pro may help boost these numbers, offering a premium option for enthusiasts seeking the best possible gaming experience. Digital Foundry’s Richard Leadbetter mentioned that while the standard PS5 remains the top choice for most consumers, the Pro version provides an enhanced experience at a higher cost.
As of now, there is no information available regarding the pricing of these discounts in the UK, but details are expected to be revealed soon. With the holiday season approaching, these discounts from Sony offer a great opportunity for gaming enthusiasts to upgrade their gaming setup or dive into the world of virtual reality with the PSVR2. Stay tuned for more updates on these exciting deals and make sure to take advantage of them before the promotional period ends on December 12th.
