PS5 Pro pre-orders have gone live as of 10am AEST on 26 September, but the PS5 Slim might be the console to buy if you aren’t too keen on spending top dollar. Right now on Amazon the digital edition PS5 Slim is down to less than half the price of the AU$1,199 Pro – which is also disc-less – while those holding onto physical media can enjoy the model with the disc-tray included for only AU$675.
Whether you’re entering the current generation, upgrading from your bulky PS5 or grabbing a second console, there’s been few better times to do so than right now. Sony just announced all-new Chroma PS5 Slim covers and Dualsense colourways, and upcoming games like Ghost of Yotei and Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered at its September State of Play presentation. Additionally, games like The Last of Us: Part One, Ghost of Tsushima and Red Dead Redemption 2 are just a PS Plus Extra subscription away. Making the AU$124.95 saving just one reason why it’s a good time to buy a PS5 Slim.
Those aren’t the only PlayStation discounts on Amazon, though.
While you can’t get the new Fortnite or Chroma collection DualSense controllers, the regular colours – Galactic Purple, Midnight Black, Nova Pink, Sterling Silver and White – are down as much as 17%, with this discount coming close to a recent price increase.
There’s also a hefty saving on the DualSense Edge, PlayStation’s controller for enthusiasts with money to spend, if you rate your skills as worthy (or want to improve).
And whether you’re looking for the best communication tool for Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 or the most immersive headset for the new Alan Wake 2 – Lake House expansion, Amazon has you covered there too. You can currently get up to AU$101.95 off the PlayStation Pulse Elite headset, as well as savings on Sony’s Inzone H5 and H9 wireless gaming headsets.
