PS5 Pro 30th Anniversary bundle UK price confirmed
We’ve seen on social media that the UK pricing for the PS5 Pro 30th Anniversary Bundle has been confirmed at £959.99.
We don’t think this is that bad considering what you’re getting, including that 200-wuid DualSense Edge…
OK, the queue is moving! We are in the queue and seeing our yellow bar moving down so it looks like the PS5 Pro pre-order train is actually moving! For reference, if you jump into the queue now, your wait time is likely to be over an hour…
30th Anniversary DualSense appears on Amazon UK! Then disappears…
We saw the PlayStation 30th Anniversary Dualsense go live at Amazon UK – it actually happened! But then it disappeared in a flash… Did anyone get one?
UK PS5 Pro Pre-orders should be open now!
OK, it has now turned 10am and pre-orders have been confirmed to be live via PlayStation’s social media accounts. Has anyone had any luck yet? If not, keep trying and be patient – it’s likely to be a low burn for a while as the queue takes effect…
Remember, if you’re not too keen on the eye-watering price of the PS5 Pro or still haven’t got your hands on one of Sony’s latest consoles, then you should still consider the PS5 Slim. It comes in significantly cheaper than the PS5 Pro, at $499.99 / £479.99, but can play all of the same games. Of course, you sacrifice some overall performance and lose out on the newest features, but that doesn’t mean that it’s not a great option for most players.
The PS5 Slim also comes with a disc reader out of the box, which is not present on the PS5 Pro and needs to be purchased separately. Unfortunately, there aren’t that many amazing PS5 Slim deals right now, but you can see where to secure one below.
As well as the regular PS5 Pro pre-orders happening today, remember there’s the PlaysTation 30th Anniversary Collection pre-orders happening today so you could bag yourself a special edition Pro (if you’re lucky as there’s only a select number of them) or a wicked cool DualSense with that excellent retro styling.
It looks like PlayStation Direct in the UK updated their site early this morning to place folks in a temporary waiting room – it’s not quite a live queue though as that has been paused – we think it’ll go live again at 10am and that’s when you’ll be assigned a position in the queue for real and the rolls of the dice begin.
From our estimates, we’re now only about 45 minutes or so away from PS5 Pro pre-orders opening fully in the UK at PlayStation Direct – so the first thing we can give you is this PlayStation Direct UK link to get into the virtual waiting room.
As well as giving you the latest on the stock situation of both the new console and the Anniversary collection we’ll also be sharing some reminders about what makes the machine exciting and what we’re hoping it’ll mean for games going forward.
