Sony finally unveiled the price and release date of the Playstation 5

It felt like it took forever to actually get a first look at the Playstation 5 and what the system even looked like.

And then, even after we did, we had no idea how much it would be or even when it would be available for pre-orders or in stores. Now, we actually have a bit of information to work with. There was no pre-order date given, but we officially have a price and release date for the Playstation 5.

Sony officially released all of the information we’ve been waiting for on the system during a Playstation event they hosted on Wednesday afternoon.

The standard edition comes in at $499, matching the price of the X Box Series X. The digital only version of the system comes in at $399, which is $100 more than the X Box Series S.

It all drops on November 12.

Now we finally know. All that’s left to give us is a pre-order date. Get on it, Sony.
