A PlayStation 5 price drop in the United States and Europe may be announced soon, judging from the hints dropped today by an extremely reliable leaker.
Earlier today, billbil-kun, who has an excellent track record, tweeted a not-so-subtle hint at a PlayStation 5 price drop in the United States, UK, and Europe. As the console's price was raised in Europe and other select territories due to inflation, it will be interesting to see if the price will go back to the previous one or if it will be going even lower.

A PlayStation 5 price drop in multiple markets will definitely help Sony move the current model ahead of the release of the new model. While it is commonly known as the PlayStation 5 Slim, the new console, which is said to be compatible with a detachable disc drive, apparently won't be a slim console at all, as it will only feature slightly different dimensions. As this new model is apparently releasing before the end of the year, a reveal should be imminent.
The PlayStation 5 console is now available worldwide as regular and Digital Edition. We will keep you updated on any hardware revisions as soon as more comes in on them, so stay tuned for all the latest news.
