FULL STORY
======================================================================

The PS5 30th Anniversary Edition may have had its price revealed ahead of an 
official announcement, thanks to a recent leak. 

The report comes from notable leaker billbil-kun, via Dealabs , who states 
that the PS5 30th Anniversary Edition model (specifically the PS5 Slim 
version of the special edition) will cost $499.99 / 449.99. That's a clean 
$50 hike over the standard PS5 Slim model. 

That said, the PS5 30th Anniversary Edition will not come bundled with a disc 
drive. It will, however, come bundled with a vertical stand, special edition 
faceplate, a DualSense wireless controller, a bespoke PS1-style USB-C cable, 
and a set of collectible stickers. 

Dealabs' billbil-kun also suggests that the 30th Anniversary Edition 
DualSense controller will retail at $79.99 (around 69.99). That's a $5 jump 
over the standard DualSense which recently saw a price increase of its own. 

With all that in mind, the price of the PS5 Pro 30th Anniversary Edition 
remains unknown, with no word from Sony nor speculation from billbil-kun. The 
standard PS5 Pro will cost $699.99 / 699.99. If billbil-kun's report is 
correct, then the 30th Anniversary Edition PS5 Pro will likely cost even 
more, potentially anywhere between $749.99 / 749.99 to $799.99 / 799.99. 

The PS5 Pro's price has been a point of contention for many, with plenty of 
gamers balking at the idea of spending that much on a mid-gen refresh that 
may not provide a wholly transformative experience and especially one that 
doesn't ship with a disc drive or a vertical stand. On the other hand, many 
have welcomed additions like PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution (PSSR) for 
better overall image quality and a 2TB SSD for significantly more storage.
