Massive PS5 Price-Cut Incoming This Month—Only in Europe

May 27, 2025 12:10 PM

Recent leaks suggest that Sony is poised to announce significant price cuts for the PlayStation 5 and PS5 Pro in Europe. According to industry insider Billbil-kun, the upcoming Days of Play event may feature a €100 discount on the standard PS5 model and a €50 reduction on the PS5 Pro and PSVR2 headsets. Additionally, DualSense controllers may be sold at €54.99 and subscription services like PlayStation Plus could see discounts of up to 30%. However, there is currently no information regarding similar discounts for U.S. consumers, largely due to potential tariff impacts. The announcement for these deals is expected soon, possibly before May 28.

Will there be a price cut for the PS5 in the US?

As of now, there's no official news regarding price cuts for the PS5 in the United States, although the recent tariffs could impact pricing strategies in the region.

The PlayStation 5, released in November 2020, has seen various price fluctuations and bundles based on market demands and global economic conditions. Despite its initial success, the ongoing challenges like inflation and currency fluctuations have led Sony to reconsider its pricing strategy, particularly in challenging regions like Europe and potentially the U.S. Consumers may want to stay tuned for announcements related to special promotions or bundles, especially around major gaming events or seasonal sales. This could further affect availability and pricing in the competitive landscape of gaming consoles.

Sony dropping those Euro prices like it's hot—meanwhile, U.S. gamers are over here side-eyeing those tariffs. Here’s hoping our wallets catch a break soon too A €100 discount sounds juicy, but until Uncle Sam gives the green light, we’re stuck playing the waiting game. Classic console wars drama.

Nice to see Sony finally giving European gamers some love with these discounts—hopefully the U.S. gets a sweet deal soon too Fingers crossed those tariffs don’t ruin the party stateside. Price cuts are always welcome, but it’s wild how tariffs can make or break a deal—guess we’ll have to wait and see if the U.S. gets lucky.
