PS5 Slim!

The new PS5 has been reduced in volume by more than 30%, and weight by 18% and 24% compared to the previous models. There are four separate cover panels, with the top portion in a glossy look, while the bottom remains in matte. If you purchase the PS5 Digital Edition, you can add the Ultra HD Blu-ray Disc Drive for PS5 later, as it will also be sold separately for 79.99 USD | 119.99 EURO | 99.99 GBP | 11,980 JPY.

The new PS5 model will be available starting this November in the U.S. at select local retailers and direct.playstation.com where available. It will continue to roll out globally in the following months. Once inventory of the current PS5 model has sold out, the new PS5 will become the only model available.

A horizontal stand will be included with the new PS5 model. Also a new Vertical Stand compatible with all PS5 models will be sold separately at 29.99 USD | 29.99 EURO | 24.99 GBP | 3,980 JPY.

        So nothing’s changed, I thought the Microsoft leaks that revealed plans for mid-gen upgrade would perhaps prompt some kind of hint at least from Sony.

          I mean those were just similar refreshes to what Sony did today, so Sony is ahead of the game. Microsoft had no Pro style console planned so no need for Sony to show their hand. Sony didn’t even announce the PS4 Pro until just a couple months before it came out. Plus they want people buying consoles now, not waiting for a year.
