After Sony raised the suggested retail price of the PlayStation 5 to 550 euros in the summer of 2022, it took a while for prices to start falling again. If, like the author of these lines, you don’t feel like spending more than 500 euros for the Sony console, now is the time to strike with confidence.
Amazon and Media Markt* pre-sell the PS5 Disc Edition only 459.99 euros. This saves you 90 euros on the current suggested retail price. As part of the MediaMarkt voucher booklet, the electronics store offered the PS5 for the new best price and Amazon promptly followed suit.
The advantage at MediaMarkt: There you save MyMediaMarkt points, which you can exchange for vouchers. You get 1000 extra points for buying the PS5, if you are a member of MediaMarkt Club.
That’s how good the PS5 offering is
Like you on the price comparison site geizhals.de As you can see, exorbitant prices were asked for the PlayStation 5 a few months ago. It was only at the beginning of this year that the situation calmed down and the console was finally available across the board.
It’s unlikely that the PS5 will become much cheaper any time soon. Really strong offers you can only go again for Black Friday expected in November.
The best games for the PS5
If you also want to save when buying games, take a look at the current MediaMarkt campaign, which we reported on earlier today. There you get 3 games for 49 eurosbut not all PS5 games count towards the action.
In addition, the colleagues from GamePro the best games for PlayStation 5 chosen. First place is led by the hell of a Hack ‘n’ Slay Diablo 4*, who scored a whopping 94 points. Behind that, also with 94 points, comes the role-playing super hit “Elden Ring”* from the creators of Dark Souls. Third place is for the horror cracker Resident Evil 4 Remake*followed by the mega blockbuster God Of War Ragnarok*.
The initial concern of some players that the PlayStation 5 hardly offers interesting games has now vanished into thin air. There are already tons of incredibly good and entertaining games out there and the selection will continue to grow over the coming months. We expect in September Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty, the expansion of the infamous sci-fi RPG. Also in September the new football simulation from the “Fifa” creators appear, this year for the first time under the name “EA Sports F.C. 24”. You can do that in October the new Spider-Man game To be happy. As you can see, Sony is far from top of the line games.
