Sony has launched a big PS5 sale and Amazon are price-matching consoles for a limited time
PS5 prices have dropped significantly thanks to Sony launching its Days of Play sale – and now might be the time for gamers to take advantage of the sales.
The PS5 Slim on Amazon is currently £384.95—down from the usual £479.99 price tag—and it might be the perfect time to upgrade that old console sitting in the living room but that isn’t the only sale on PS5 consoles and accessories.
The PS5 Pro is currently £654.99 on Amazon for gamers who want the best framerates and resolutions. However, at a price almost double the PS5, fans might need to open their wallets deeper to grab this deal.

Amazon isn’t the only place with a big PS5-related sale as Sony has kicked off its Days of Play sale, offering discounts on consoles, controllers, and games. The Dualsense Edge Wireless controller can be picked up for £174.99, while the PS VR2 with Horizon: Call of the Mountain for £354.99 is also reduced from £399.

Amazon has launched a rare sale on the PS5 Pro console, it can now be bought for less than usual at £384.94.
One thing to consider for gamers wanting to spend a lot of cash on a new console is that the Nintendo Switch 2 is on the horizon. Nintendo is selling it right here. Amazon is also selling the Nintendo Switch OLED for £240 if the newest console isn’t in your budget.
If shoppers are eyeing up the PS5 Pro, I reviewed the PS5 Pro when it first came out, and for those who want the best of the best PlayStation has to offer, it might be a tempting buy.
Games look crisper, run faster – all thanks to the new GPU technology that has been added into the more powerful console. However, for the £650 price tag, it’s an expensive buy and only for gamers who really need the best-of-the-best when it comes to performance.
And for shoppers wanting to buy a PS5, we reviewed the PS5 back in 2020 if you ever wanted to know our thoughts. The PS5 is a real powerhouse when it comes to gaming and if gamers have yet to get one, now might be the time.
But it is a older console and might be showing its age in the next few years so consider that if shoppers want to invest their money into a PS5.
