Sony is currently running its annual PlayStation sale, which has been active for about a month. The sale includes discounts on various products, such as the PlayStation 5 Digital Edition, PlayStation Portal, and DualSense controller. The sale will end soon, with some deals expiring as early as December 19 and others lasting until December 28, presenting an opportunity for consumers to purchase gifts before the holiday season concludes.
As of December 25, the PlayStation 5 Digital Edition is priced at $399, which is a $100 discount, making it the lowest price of the year. This version does not include a disc drive, requiring users to download games, thus necessitating a reliable internet connection for modern titles. Additionally, an external disc drive is available for $79.99 if users later decide to utilize physical media.
The standard PlayStation 5 slim is also available at a discounted price of $449 through December 25, matching its lowest price this year. This version comes equipped with a disc drive, accommodating both older PlayStation titles and newer games along with Blu-rays.
For those seeking enhanced performance, the PlayStation 5 Pro is currently available for around $649, also discounted by $101 until December 25. This model features improved hardware that enables higher resolutions and frame rates for certain games, although it does not have exclusive titles.
The PlayStation Portal, designed for remote streaming from the PS5, is at its lowest price of $178.99 until December 25, and includes new cloud streaming capabilities for PlayStation Plus Premium subscribers.
Additionally, the DualSense Wireless Controller is discounted to around $54 until December 19, and the Pulse Explore wireless earbuds are available for $169.99. Both products are designed to enhance the gaming experience and provide compatibility with other platforms.
