Sony has confirmed that it will raise prices across its PlayStation 5 console range, with the PS5 Pro receiving a $150 (roughly £115) increase to $899.99 (around £680). The price adjustment will take effect on 2 April and marks the second hike in less than a year. The move comes as Sony cites 'pressures in the global economic landscape' and rising costs for key components, including memory, as reasons for the increase.
The company stated in a blog post that it recognises the impact of price changes on its community but views the adjustment as a necessary step to maintain 'innovative, high-quality gaming experiences.'
