PS5 consoles get massive £90 price cut in PlayStation sale
Metro journalists select and curate the products that feature on our site. If you make a purchase via links on this page we will earn commission – learn more As part of the PlayStation summer sale, Sony has cut the price of various PS5 consoles, with the cheapest being less than £340. Sony's PlayStation 5 has been out for nearly five years, but it still hasn't received any permanent price cut – instead, Sony has bumped up the price several times since 2020. The company has blamed the 'challenging economic environment' for these price hikes, most recently in April, but it means any temporary discounts are worth capitalising on to lessen the financial damage. If you've been on the fence about a PlayStation 5, Sony has now slashed the prices across various models on the PlayStation Direct store. As part of its summer sale, which has also seen thousands of games discounted across the PlayStation Store, the PlayStation 5 console with a disc drive is £45 off at £434.99. However, if you don't require a disc drive (or prefer to buy one later), you can pick up the digital version for only £339.99, which is £90 off the original £429.99 price. Before the recent price hike, the PlayStation 5 digital edition cost £389.99, so you're still saving £50 from the previous price.

If you fancy picking up another DualSense controller, there are other bundles too. The digital version with two controllers is £90 off at £389.99, while the standard console with another DualSense is £45 off at £484.99. More Trending While there's no discount on the PS5 Pro, you can pick up the base PlayStation 5 console with a 24-month PlayStation Plus Premium subscription for £634.99, which is £45 off. This is the highest tier of PlayStation Plus, which usually costs £119.99 per year. These deals are live now and run until July 29, 2025, while supplies last. It's not a bad time to pick up the console either. PlayStation 5 exclusive Death Stranding 2: On The Beach recently launched, and Ghost of Yōtei is set to drop on October 2, 2025. You can also catch up on the likes of Returnal, Astro Bot, and Marvel's Spider-Man 2. While the PlayStation 5 is still going strong, Sony has already been talking about the console's successor, which is expected to launch around 2027.

Ghost of Yotei PS5 console special edition revealed
'The towering Mount Yotei is included at the centre of the console design to pull it all together, and Atsu is spotlighted on the DualSense controller. Each of these elements was thoughtfully woven into both the console and controller designs.'

Ghost Of Yōtei has its own limited edition PS5 – here's where you can buy it
Sony has announced two new PlayStation 5 consoles that come with Ghost Of Yōtei, ahead of its launch this autumn. In case you missed it, Sony held another of its State Of Play presentations last night; one centred entirely on its next major PlayStation 5 exclusive, Ghost Of Yōtei, which is scheduled for October 2. It wasn't a particularly long showcase, clocking in at only 20 minutes, and while new details were shared, like improved combat and optional modes meant to emulate Japanese film directors Takashi Miike and Shinichirō Watanabe, it very much looks like more of Ghost Of Tsushima. Perhaps the biggest surprise of the presentation was that the game will launch with not one but two new PlayStation 5 console variants, that are included in limited edition bundles. Both versions feature the same design of Mount Yōtei, a real-life Japanese landmark that features prominently in the game, with one being coloured gold and the other being black. According to the PlayStation Blog, the former is inspired by kintsugi, an art form that involves reparing broken ceramics with gold and lacquer, while the latter is inspired by black ink paintings, also known as sumi-e, and the basis for Ōkami's art design. Each console comes with a matching DualSense controller, with protagonist Atsu depicted on the touchpad, as well as a digital copy of Ghost Of Yōtei and the pre-order content (which consists of an in-game mask for Atsu to wear and seven new PlayStation Network avatars). Sign up to the GameCentral newsletter for a unique take on the week in gaming, alongside the latest reviews and more. Delivered to your inbox every Saturday morning. At the time of writing, the limited edition bundles for Ghost Of Yōtei aren't available for pre-order, with Sony only saying that pre-order details will be shared at a later date. What we do know is that while the gold bundle will be sold through the PlayStation Direct store and other select retailers, the black bundle will be exclusive to PlayStation Direct. While these bundles are obviously meant to attract new PlayStation 5 owners, Sony will be selling console covers with the gold patterns separately. So, if you already own a PlayStation 5 but really like the design of the new ones, you don't have to invest in a new console. Unfortunately, Sony is only offering suitable covers for the newer slim and PlayStation 5 Pro models, meaning those who still have the original bulky model are out of luck. Plus, for whatever reason, it seems console covers with the black pattern won't be sold separately. More Trending Both the gold and black DualSense controllers will be available as individual purchases but, just like the consoles, the black one will be exclusive to PlayStation Direct. Sony hasn't shared prices yet, but you can bet these bundles won't be cheap. For what it's worth, the Call Of Duty: Black Ops 6 bundles on PlayStation Direct are £339.99 for the digital edition and £434.99 for the standard edition. However, the consoles are the usual white ones, so Sony will almost certainly charge extra since these Ghost Of Yōtei bundles feature fancy new designs. Not to mention Sony bumped up the price of the digital console from £389.99 to £429.99 this past April. As for the console covers, based on the ones Sony already sells, they could cost anywhere from £44.99 to £54.99. Email gamecentral@ leave a comment below, follow us on Twitter.
