The new PlayStation 5 Slim was announced earlier this month with a generic November release window, but it seems like the new hardware revision of Sony's current generation console will be made available in the United States not long after the month begins.

According to a new report from billbill-kun, who proved to be extremely reliable in the past, the console will make its debut in the United States on November 10th, the same day the console launches in Japan. A few days earlier, on November 8th, the first bundle of the new console will also become available for purchase in the US. This bundle, which will retail for $559.99, will include the standard edition of the console and Marvel's Spider-Man 2, although it is not yet clear if it will be the physical or the digital edition that will be included in the bundle.

The PlayStation 5 Slim's smaller size is only one of the things that differentiate the new hardware revision from the original model. Both the standard and Digital Edition will come with 1TB SSD, offering slightly more storage space out of the box, while the Digital Edition will be compatible with a detachable disc drive. Both editions will also feature two USB Type-C ports. As stated above, the new PS5 models will start rolling out worldwide this November.
