PS5 Fans Thought They Were Getting a Price and Release Date Yesterday

release date November 24th price=$499

Lol man, anyone can say anything on social media.

Hey, I'm an insider too! Price info coming on August 5th! It's totally legit, bro! Believe me. 😝

It wasn’t Amazon Australia. It was Amazon US that made their site live at 8:30pm BST last night.

No news on this until after the next Xbox event in July at the earliest.
They'll be another reveal with some more games and possibly PSVR2, certainly BC news and then pre-orders will pop on the back of the hype.
£350 disk, £299 digital I reckon, with PS4 price drop to £150 or £199 for Pro.

We'll probably learn what wasn't shown from June's State of Play in August's State of Play, along with more games.

i mean it was obvious that they would not steath drop a price and pre order announcement. that news is way to big for it to not be revealed at a sony stream.

They are probably waiting for xbox to fire their gun first.

Who would have thought that a guy named Robert Serrano would have such spicy hot takes.

@Futureshark
350 a pimpdream.. 450 more like

It's all about them likes on social media, where you can literally say any old crap and someone will like it 👍.

@Futureshark £350?! Keep dreaming my boy 😂😂

I think economic factors and covid 19 are having a bigger effect on Sony when it comes to information flow than Microsoft at this time.

Did I just start to watch a Take that video?! How dare you push square! 😂

Why would Sony announce anything before August's state of play. Like at this point it makes no difference if its now or next month 🤷‍♂️ plus any advertising or hype building for PS5 will drown out marketing for Ghost of Tsushima. Sucker Punch deserve to have the limelight for a little while now. After this, major PS4 exclusive software will be done, so that is when the push will come

@EVIL-C Canadian flag checks out. August 5th it is!

Well according to other sources.......... ALL retailers have put Ps5 on there sites............ I am sure a majority of them did that following the Ps5 reveal steam LAST MONTH

@OscarHTX yes if you just use common knowledge that future games of big successes in the past are coming and just keep guessing dates that make logical sense of course someone's going to guess right but that just makes them really lucky and not a "source".

These people who report on their "sources" are just feeding these trolls and making me less interested in reading their "leaks". Maybe vet your "sources" a little better and only report on things from people who have been CONFIRMED industry insiders who've made solid predictions (and been RIGHT!) several times before you start spreading fud all over the internet.

Cause the minute one of you do it the rest of the lazy game sites quote you like it's fact and before you know it the ENTIRE internet KNOWS the day pre orders go live.

SMH

@Futureshark 350? lol its no way near that. i'd say arround £400

I still hope both are reasonable prices, especially the disc-ones. I'm not willing to pay $500 for a new console, and I'm sure others will feel the same, with the fact of what is going on throughout the world (wonderful COVID and job losses). Honestly, I still think they should wait on releases, but it's my opinion. I'm still hoping to purchase one eventually (Yup, I'll have Sony's first then Microsoft's), but again...depends on price. I'm just wondering on if the games are really going to cost $80, or if they'll still just cost $60? Until they announce prices, expect lots of rumors!!!!

Only gullible idiots would have believed this story from a random unreliable twitter.. I fully expect Microsoft to announce its pricing next week and Sony to follow, if they are capable of matching or beating the XSX price of course otherwise they may hold off.

Dear Sony to mark the 5th and 25 years of PLAYSTATION announce like you did PS1

Get the CEO to pop out on a 10 second video and just say £499 and walk off

Simple

@JLPick It's going to be £499 at least and with that I've decided to build a new pc as mine was getting old and was 10 years old. It only cost me £521 to get a new board, CPU, ram and GPU and I'm happy I did it smashes every game I play now

Not going to lie, I bought into the rumors. But in the end it doesn't matter when the price is announced, I've put my money aside since the reveal event and as long as the price isn't something insanely stupid like $700, I'll be there to pre-order.

maybe because sites like this "reported" it

I think they will reveal the console price and release date in early August at their next state of play. I predict the regular ps5 model will cost 500$ and the digital ps5 model will cost 400$. I think Sony will take a loss on the digital model to try to get more people to buy the digital games.

@Nakatomi_Uk They need to wait for Sega to announce their price first.

I think both Sony and Microsoft will announce prices in late August. I think it'll go like:

Microsoft does the Series X event next week focused on games

Sony does another games focused State of Play in early August

Microsoft announces Series S, the price for both Series S and Series X and more games during the digital Gamescom at the end of August

Sony announces the PS5 price a day later which undercuts Series X and the PS5 digital edition is same price as Series S

Played the trick two of my co-workers told them both I said "I just read online sony have given a release date for the ps5, its out November 23rd for 399 for digital and 499 for the disc version" got them both going i felt cruel though haha.

Called it. There’s no way Sony will just make an announcement for this out of nowhere. They have to build it up. Make an announcement prior to the announcement. And we don’t know Other than Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales what will launch with the PS5 yet. And the OS of course.
