PS5 30th Anniversary Edition

The highly anticipated 30th Anniversary Edition of PS5 might not cost you as much as you feared. While many expected these limited-edition items to break the bank, it seems Sony has taken a more accessible approach to pricing. This makes these exclusive items a potential addition to your collection without breaking your wallet.

According to the ever-reliable billbil-kun, the PS5 Slim (Digital Edition) 30th Anniversary pack will be priced at $499.99 in the US, €519.99 in Europe, and £449.99 in the UK. Surprisingly, this represents only a $50 increase over the standard PS5 Slim model. Furthermore, Sony will sell the DualSense 30th Anniversary Limited Edition controller for $79.99 in the US, €79.99 in Europe, and £69.99 in the UK.

Unfortunately, billbil-kun couldn’t uncover the prices for the entire collection, which includes the rumored PS5 Pro and other items like the PlayStation Portal.

The PlayStation 30th Anniversary Collection will feature a nostalgic design inspired by the original PlayStation 1, with a classic gray color scheme and the iconic four-color PlayStation logo. Additionally, Sony will only release 12,300 units of the PS5 Pro Console Bundle, so fans will need to act quickly to get one. Chances are, scalpers will use all sorts of tricks to get these to resell them at exorbitant prices, though this is expected by almost everyone.

Pre-orders for the PlayStation 30th Anniversary Collection will officially open on September 26, 2024, through PlayStation Direct. It will then be available at other retailers starting October 10, 2024. The full collection will be released on November 21, 2024.

Honestly, it look’s identical to the PS5 Pro standard edition only difference is the faceplate looks different.
