Steve Posted August 25, 2022 Share Posted August 25, 2022 They're blaming it on "the global economic environment". In the UK, the price of a PS5 with a disc drive has risen by £30 from £449.99 to £479.99. The biggest price rise is in Japan, where the price has risen by 10,498 Yen, which is around £65. One large market where they've said there will be no price increase is America, but everywhere else basically gets shafted. MS has announced this afternoon that they will not be increasing the prices of the Xbox Series consoles.
