Alright, here's your last chance. What's your final pricing prediction for PS5/PS5D leading into Wednesday's showcase?

[digitalrelic]

We're finally reaching the last piece of the next-gen preordering puzzle. Just a few days away before we should finally know the pricing philosophy of Sony's future consoles.

My guess? They're going to spend the showcase really impressing us with games, making those watching feel like they need one of these new consoles, and then hit us with a competitive price: $499 PS5, $399 PS5D.

What's your guess? How high would the price have to be to make you pass on preordering?

 

[PhantomArtifice]

Sticking with my original prediction still - $499/$399.

 

[Toumari]

$399 / $499
£349 / £449

 

[Mastermind]

They're going for that $500/$400 combo.

 

[mullah88]

399 - 449

 

[Uzupedro]

It will be amazing if Sony doesn't reveals the price this wednesday lmao

 

[HeartlessNobody2134]

Sticking with $399 & $499

 

[Nameless]

Standard 499-449
DE - 399 - 349

Most likely 499/399 but I won't be shocked if either are $50 cheaper.

 

[TripleBee]

549/499

No point investing heavily in exclusives and having all the hype behind you if you can't price accordingly. If they still have to undercut MS hardware and take a huge loss, then that is proof exclusives really don't matter.

 

[Xevross]

I've been saying $499/$399 for months like many others, I see no reason for it to have changed.

 

[Windu]

500/550

 

[JiGGseVen]

100$ less for a digital seems crazy to me honestly, a disc drive can't possibly mean so much less production costs.

 

[Linus815]

my last chance? 🤣

 

[Duxxy3]

I'm guessing $399/$499, but a $399 PS5 would deflate any hype that Xbox has generated lately.

 

[stephbm6]

I'm thinking it'll be
PS5 - $499
PS5D - $399
and Sony will sell out and it'll be hard to find one for at least 6 months.

 

[jiggle]

$399 and $399
Lose less with one
And more with the other

 

[Ostinatto]

299 - 399

i dont see the option in the poll.

 

[Bishop89]

449 - 399 i reckon

 

[badboy78660]

499/399

 

[Deleted member 13077]

$399 / $499
£349 / £449

This.

To elaborate, at this point, every console offers a strong value proposition.

It's been talked about ad nauseum, but it also means that consumers who buy the digital-only version will be buying 100% of their games from the Playstation Store, so Sony would theoretically get a lot more money out of them vs someone buying physical discs. So it's not just the production cost of including the disc drive that constitutes the price difference.

 

[DMVfan123]

$399 PS5DE
$499 PS5 Standard

 

[Aurora]

$599 DE $199 PS5

 

[Dashful]

399 DE
Regular 459

Put my vote on the closest though.

 

[krae_man]

$399 / $499
£349 / £449

You're probably expecting too much to have PlayStation do the same under US pricing Microsoft did.

I'm hoping for $399/$449(maybe $499 if they bundle Miles Morales or something with it).

 

[Maverick-Swe]

I hope nice gamer friendly Sony is back so: 499/399 but with 100 000 000 ps4s sold I think arrogant Sony is back with 549/449. Going for 399 Ps5 DE in an instant if this will be the case.

Imagine the rage

 

[shoptroll]

$549 / $449 here. I still think they're going to be typical Sony and use to price to drive home the "premium" angle. And I still think the stock model is going to be closer to $599 but that wasn't an option without jacking up the digital version to $499

 

[Henrar]

I'll laugh my ass off if they won't announce the price next week

 

[Solaire]

So, now that we know the Series S / X's pricing... where do you think the PS5 is going to land?

After months of waiting, it seems like the game of chicken has ended thanks to yesterday's leak. While the Xbox Series X's price isn't officially confirmed, the $499 leak is what pretty much everyone expected and a very reasonable price given the specs, so it going higher than that is very...

Come on.

499 399

 

[Meg Cherry]

$500/$550 seems like the spot they've cornered themselves into.

 

[Deleted member 16908]

I think Sony will eat a big loss on the digital edition to offer PS5 at the same price point that worked so well for them with PS4 and PS4 Pro.

I was a little iffy on the $399 dream before but with a $299 Xbox on the horizon I think Sony probably feels a little pressure to go lower than they may have wanted to.

 

[Deleted member 29249]

I'm sticking with $599 and $549

 

[Deleted member 437]

I'll make my final prediction in the next thread.

 

[Jumpman23]

PS5 $600
PD5 DE $500

 

[saforia]

399 for ps5 DE and 499 for ps5 makes the most sense to me.

 

[Ahti]

Knowing this forum, I don`t believe, this is our last chance. ;-)

 

[Spork4000]

399
499

I believe!!!

 

[wideface]

PS5 - $499
PS5D - $399

Lock them in.

 

[pappacone]

the hardware's price will be the same, subscription's one will be different

 

[catswaller]

team 549

 

[MrFox]

I'm still on the 449/499 prediction, but I'm really hoping for 399/499.

The DE is a real puzzle in my brain, I can't decide.

 

[JediTimeBoy]

$449 / $399
£449 / £399

Hoping I'm wrong about UK pricing...

 

[score01]

I'm going 499/449.

This is a pretty good deal for the hardware their packing but I don't see them as hungry enough to price the DE at 399.

If you look at the PS4 it feels like they have been happier to sit on higher margins vs volume and I think it will be the same going forward.

 

[SaitoH]

I think it's going to be $499 / $399 but I'm voting $449 / $399 because I think this is why they've been waiting for Microsoft to price first.

 

[Adrifi]

What do you mean?

 

[The Gold Hawk]

399/499 sounds about right.

I would hope that, if they had any sense, they would probably knock 50 off the digital edition at least

 

[dusan]

Still simple,

PlayStation 5 - $499

PlayStation 5 Digital - $399

 

[zombiejames]

Sticking with 499/399.
