Amazon has heavily discounted its offering of the PlayStation 5 Digital Edition in the “Slim” console. You can now pick up the iconic gaming device for as little as $569, a 16 per cent discount from its usual RRP of $679.95. As this is the digital console edition, it differs from the original PS5 in that it doesn’t contain a disc drive, so you have to sign into your account for the PlayStation Network and download games directly from the PlayStation store.
There is an ability to play a back catalogue of supported PS4 games on the console so you don’t have to completely replace all your favourite games. The pack comes with a wireless controller and a one terabyte drive. A vertical stand that helps to keep your console upright is sold separately. “Very happy with this PS5. Reasonably priced and delivered promptly,” one Amazon customer commented about the Slim console. “This console is just amazing.
