Same price, less storage. Shrinkflation at its finest.

Sony plans to release a new PS5 Slim All-Digital console with an 825GB SSD, reducing storage from the previous 1TB to optimize production costs amid rising expenses. The PS5 Slim Standard with a disc drive will retain the 1TB SSD, and the updated model is expected to launch in Europe first.

    I mean it honestly looks more like a corporation using US tariffs for cover than being directly affecting it like the article was speculating.

    I mean we’ll have a better idea when the price is released in the US markets since current US prices for PS 5s have already increased for the US only.
