Sony Raises PS5 Standard Edition Price in India Amid Restocking
Sony has increased the price of the PlayStation 5 Standard Edition in India by Rs 15,000, raising it to Rs 69,990. This follows earlier price hikes for the Digital Edition and aligns with global trends of rising PS5 costs. The console has recently been restocked at major Indian retailers, though the Digital Edition's updated price remains unconfirmed. The price increase positions the base model close to previous premium pricing levels, reflecting broader market adjustments.
