Sony will increase the prices of its PlayStation 5 consoles in the US, starting today. This follows the trend of console manufacturers such as Microsoft and Nintendo raising prices for their hardware in response to tariffs.

Sony is falling in step with other manufacturers and announcing price increases for its PlayStation 5 line. Here's how much they'll cost you now.

With PlayStation set to increase PS5 console prices this week, this Call of Duty PS5 Slim bundle deal offers even better value now.

Every version of the PlayStation 5 is now $50 more expensive in the U.S., but at least for now, a new deal at GameStop will cover the difference. The meme stock retailer announced it will start giving anyone who trades in their last-gen consoles an extra $50 in-store credit toward the purchase of a new PS5.

It's time for the next PS Store sale to get started. The PlayStation Indies sale is live right now, and runs through to 3rd September 2025. As always, there are thousands of games included, so browsing for the best stuff can be a little tricky.

California governor Gavin Newsom has reacted to the PlayStation 5 price hike in the US, jokingly thanking US President Donald Trump for making it happen via his controversial tariff strategy. Re-sharing a news story about the PS5 price hike, Newsom, a Democrat, posted on social media, "Great work, Donald Trump!!"

Starting Thursday, you can expect to pay more for a new PlayStation, thanks to "a challenging economic environment."
