A German website has opened a page dedicated to the PlayStation Digital Edition with 2TB of internal memory, setting the price at almost a thousand euros. But it was a mistake
Summer is ending and the mystery of the price and release date of the PlayStation 5 is still not solved. Many were expecting an event Sony for the end of August dedicated to the new console, but so it was not. It will almost certainly be organized for the month of September, but there is still no official announcement. And while the Japanese company delays in making an official announcement, rumors and rumors published on the net are increasing.
The last one in chronological order comes from Germany and has created more than a few discomfort in the world of fans: the site otto.de has published a page dedicated to the PlayStation 5 Digital Edition with a price of 974.79 euros. In addition to the fact that the page was deleted immediately, there are many things that do not fit: the version shown had a 2TB SSD and so far Sony has only presented PS5 with an 850GB SSD. In addition, the price is really too high and few would be able to afford it.
Many doubts also on the date of release of the PlayStation 5. The period has been more or less identified: the week from November 13 to 20. The exit, however, may not be the same throughout the world: first in the U.S. and then in Europe.
How much will the PlayStation 5 cost
The page published by the German site and then immediately deleted is only the last act of a story that goes on for much longer. It is not the first time that some e-commerce publishes a page dedicated to the PS5, setting a price and then immediately deleting it. Until Sony decides to set an online event for the presentation of the console, we will not be able to put a stop to all these rumors online.
The most likely hypothesis for the price of the PS5 is that it costs 499.99 euros, while for the Digital Edition will have to shell out 100 euros less. Sony would like to entice users to buy the Digital version, in order to relaunch the sale of the many online services created in recent years, such as PlayStation Now.
When will the PS5
If on the front of the prices there are no big news, as regards the date of release of the PlayStation 5 in recent days have appeared on the network several reports. And the news is certainly not good for users: in Europe the console may arrive later than in the United States. The release of the PS5 will probably not be simultaneous throughout the world and could differ by a few weeks depending on the country.
The most likely date remains November 13, the day in which it also comes out Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War, saga with the PlayStation has always had a special bond. And it is likely that Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War is one of the titles available for the console from the beginning. The other likely date is November 20. A minimal difference, with the only certainty being that in any case the release will be before Blakc Friday 2020, set in theory for November 27.
