The
PS5
30th
Anniversary
Edition
may
have
had
its
price
revealed
ahead
of
an
official
announcement,
thanks
to
a
recent
leak.
The
report
comes
from
notable
leaker
billbil-kun,
via
Dealabs,
who
states
that
the
PS5
30th
Anniversary
Edition
model
(specifically
the
PS5
Slim
version
of
the
special
edition)
will
cost
$499.99
/
£449.99.
That’s
a
clean
$50
hike
over
the
standard
PS5
Slim
model.
That
said,
the
PS5
30th
Anniversary
Edition
will
not
come
bundled
with
a
disc
drive.
It
will,
however,
come
bundled
with
a
vertical
stand,
special
edition
faceplate,
a
DualSense
wireless
controller,
a
bespoke
PS1-style
USB-C
cable,
and
a
set
of
collectible
stickers.
Dealabs’
billbil-kun
also
suggests
that
the
30th
Anniversary
Edition
DualSense
controller
will
retail
at
$79.99
(around
£69.99).
That’s
a
$5
jump
over
the
standard
DualSense
which
recently
saw
a
price
increase
of
its
own.
With
all
that
in
mind,
the
price
of
the
PS5
Pro
30th
Anniversary
Edition
remains
unknown,
with
no
word
from
Sony
nor
speculation
from
billbil-kun.
The
standard
PS5
Pro
will
cost
$699.99
/
£699.99.
If
billbil-kun’s
report
is
correct,
then
the
30th
Anniversary
Edition
PS5
Pro
will
likely
cost
even
more,
potentially
anywhere
between
$749.99
/
£749.99
to
$799.99
/
£799.99.
The
PS5
Pro’s
price
has
been
a
point
of
contention
for
many,
with
plenty
of
gamers
balking
at
the
idea
of
spending
that
much
on
a
mid-gen
refresh
that
may
not
provide
a
wholly
transformative
experience
and
especially
one
that
doesn’t
ship
with
a
disc
drive
or
a
vertical
stand.
On
the
other
hand,
many
have
welcomed
additions
like
PlayStation
Spectral
Super
Resolution
(PSSR)
for
better
overall
image
quality
and
a
2TB
SSD
for
significantly
more
storage.
