The Daily Moot: PlayStation 5 Price & Release Date Revealed
News Picks
The big day is finally here. During today’s PlayStation 5 Showcase livestream, Sony revealed the price and release date for the PS5. The next-gen console war between PlayStation and Xbox has been raging on since the consoles were first announced at the end of last year, and has been the de facto gaming storyline of the year for 2020. Now console fans around the world finally have all the information they need in order to make their ever-important decisions this holiday season. In alignment with Microsoft's approach, Sony will also be offering 2 distinct versions of the PS5 on launch: the “Ultra HD Blu-Ray” PS5, which costs $499, and the diskless PS5 Digital Edition, which will be available for $399. In comparison, the Xbox Series X will also cost $499, but the digital edition Xbox Series S will be available for $299, a full $100 cheaper than Sony’s offering. With that said, regional pricing will vary, so be sure to double check how much the console costs in your local currency so that you can plan accordingly.

In terms of release date, the PlayStation 5 will arrive on different dates depending on where you live. The United States, Japan, Canada, Mexico, Australia, New Zealand, and South Korea will all be getting a November 12 launch, whereas Europe and the rest of the world will have to wait one extra week for the global rollout on November 19. In comparison, the next-gen Xbox consoles are set to launch worldwide on November 10.

The PlayStation 5 livestream event didn’t just reveal information about the price and release date, it also showcased several of the console’s upcoming games. Some of the games that got sneak-peek coverage include Devil May Cry 5, Final Fantasy XVI, Five Nights at Freddy’s Security Breach, Hogwarts Legacy, and a new God of War title. Sony also confirmed that Marvel’s Spider Man: Miles Morales, Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War, and Demon’s Souls will all be available on launch.

The future is finally here. Which side are you taking?
PS5 IS ALREADY SO MUCH BETTER THAN THAT OTHER SYSTEM WHICH I WILL NOT NAME 😤
Edit: 1000000% preordering tomorrow! Who's with me?!No it’s not better than the Samsung washing machine wdym?
Okay, you’ve got a point, PS5 will be the SECOND best console
Big Facts
I gotta disagree with that one
I can't wait to use my Samsung Fridge....
i can't wait for the Rgb toaster from Razer to come out
me too im hyped
Well let's do a *realistic* comparison...
Either router or Xbox PC/Samsung fridge
which would I choose?
well if you play on a router then you have better ping, PS5 is the obvious answer here...What about the Samsung washer and dryer combo?
I unironically have a Samsung refrigerator, washer, and dryer lmao
You know how inefficient that would be, that would be like when its washing you're running good, but then when its drying your hardware is fried
When it’s drying switch over to the dryer
what?
It’s like 2 consoles in one. When you’re washing, you use the washer, and vice versa
So which girl is buying me the Ps5?😂😂😂 all jokes boys
Let’s go boys it’s finally here. We finally know the cost!!!

im one of the few who dont belive in console wars. why? because I can afford both consoles majority who believes in console wars cant. no offense to those who can but still choose sides .Thats still a nice looking router.
i want it with the ahegao custom
Wdym ahegao
look it up? its nsfw tho
Print it out and glue it onto it
good idea
we all want it with the ahegao custom
oh ffs
guys remember that the series s will have worse specs. it makes sense for the digital ps5 to cost more
Can’t wait for the new kfc console
Oh, just one story today, ok
Play station got better exclusive than Xbox
Xbox doesn’t have any exclusives anymore (all on pc), so even if the PS exclusives were hot garbage, they would be better than what Xbox has
well. ik what im saving for B)
Well, I know I won't have that kinda money :|
