Global Backlash Over PS5 Pro Pricing
International Price Differences Spark Gamer Concerns
The PS5 Pro's pricing announcement has generated considerable buzz, particularly on platforms like Twitter (X). The $700 USD US price point is causing significant discussion, but the cost is even higher for gamers in Japan and Europe.
Japanese consumers will pay 119,980 yen (approximately $847 USD), while the European price is $799.99, and £699.99 in the UK. These prices significantly exceed the equivalent cost based on current exchange rates, leading many to consider importing the console from the US to save money.
Pre-order details remain scarce, but the PS5 Pro is expected to be available through PlayStation Direct, and major retailers such as Amazon, Best Buy, Walmart, Target, and GameStop.
