Leaker and concept designer Ben Geskin shared images of the PS5's store page on Amazon France. These images put the prices at €499 for the standard PS5 and €399 for the Digital Edition, which converts to $565/£447 and $452/£358 respectively. The store page for the PS5 currently lists the price information as "currently unavailable," but we still have Geskin's screenshots to go by.

If there's no Lockhart, I think it forces both PS5 & series x into the $400-$500 range, regardless of what they cost to build.

MS is in a good position and will wait for Sony to price their systems first.

Maybe. Although if they're going to launch Lockhart this year, they're going to need to announce it at some point... and the Lockhart story doesn't make much sense without a price attached to it. I suppose it's possible that they might announce it just before launch, like Sony did with the Pro... but mostly I expect they'll announce console hardware at least 6 months before launch... btw, we're already within that 6 month window, so my expectations are already shot.

Honestly I'm not sure where these Lockhart rumors are coming from at this point. It seems like they should be alot more solid by now, so I'm kindof thinking Lockhart won't be a thing at all.

That means pricing is 549 and 449 which would be extremely competitive.

Chuck · Jun 16, 2020, 11:30 PM

No matter how powerful the new Xbox is, it's still hard for me to be excited about it since it has absolutely no exclusives.

Heck, I have a relatively middle of the line 5700XT and it's already powerful enough for most games at high quality. Why should I care?

If the PS4 is an indication, the PS5 will be well worth the price of admission. Sony's exclusives are second to none.

KAC · Jun 17, 2020, 11:59 AM

XSX is great if you are like me who wants to sit back and relax and bone some games on free Xbox game pass.

Yep, that puts it into my willing to buy price range. I might wait a few months for a couple of system updates to drop, but I'll get one.

Agreed. All the games that I just have to have are PS. Heck, if the PS5 turns out to be that satisfying I probably won't even upgrade my ancient desktop.

**SirBaron** · Jun 17, 2020, 12:59 PM

I already have a 4K blu-ray player, and all my PS4 games are digital, so for sure I'll be going with the discless version.

I really hope Sony releases a Pro version in 3-4 years as well, I want midgen refresh to be the new norm.

**SirBaron** · Jun 17, 2020, 01:52 PM

Horizon coming 2021, so I imagine maybe we get Ratchet and possibly Gran Turismo this year, or maybe Ratchet and the Spiderman game.

Shame, Horizon is what I want the most.

Lazy8s · Jun 17, 2020, 07:06 PM

I told my wife about the PS5 tonight. She informed me I'm getting one

HZD was one of my favorite games ever, and I wasn't even aware there was a sequel incoming lol.

Yes, I've been living under a rock lately

I really hope developers use more often a 30fps high visuals/60fps performance mode on most AAA games.

For me the thing holding me back from going full console is 30fps sucks, especially if the game has bad frametiming, or goes below 30fps.

Nioh 2 and a couple of others I saw added an option to switch between 60fps or visual fidelity, whatever that means lol. I don't know how common that is as I don't buy many games, but for me the 60fps looks just fine. I agree, and I hope we see that in more games going forward.

Update: Amazon France has confirmed to TechRadar that the image being circulated with the PS5 price and release date is a fake, and not from its website. "The screenshot showing a PS5 product page on amazon.fr with a price of 499€ and a release date on November 20 is a fake and is not coming from our website," an Amazon France spokesperson told us. So, that's that.

what is the chance do you think the digital edition will be able to use a external USB blu ray drive

That usually means 4K or 1080p on PS4 Pro. Hopefully with PS5 the only choice is 60 fps AND visual fidelity

It really doesn't seem that much bigger than the XBox to me. Remove the base and its close. Then the top portion is just fins for design only. The core of the system seems to be a similar size. The side profile looks much wider though, I suppose. But again, those white fins stick so far out past the black body of it.

KAC · Jun 19, 2020, 11:03 AM

How a Japanese gay put this in their box?

**Cyko** · Jun 19, 2020, 12:49 PM

So when does this thing go up for pre-order?

**SirBaron** · Jun 19, 2020, 03:10 PM

I don’t know why they made the fins so much longer than the machine, such a waste of space. Also looks like it was designed by Netgear.

Nascar24 · Jun 19, 2020, 03:42 PM

Can’t say I like the design, forget laying it down or stacking your consoles with this thing

There’s no vents on the top, how the hell am I going to put the series x on top of this POS design? When you have every console known to man you stack them.
