GAMERS are just realising the rumoured PS5 price drop has already become a reality.
Dropping to its lowest price ever in the UK, people can now pick up the disc-based console for an amazing price.

Rumours started swirling that the PS5 price would drop in the UK after the EU saw price reductions between €50 and €100.
It was originally believed that the PS5 price would drop by £75, but now that it is live, it seems to be even more.
The disc-based console has been reduced by £80 at every retailer, and it appears that this will be the standard price moving forward.
By comparison, the digital-only PS5 has not seen a price reduction meaning that it is only £10 cheaper than the standard version.
It is believed that the price has been reduced to prepare for the announcement of a new PS5 later this year.
Microsoft announced that PlayStation would be releasing a PS5 Slim at some point in 2023.
It is rumoured that Sony will release a new type of PS5 with a detachable disc drive, which will fit seamlessly into the console’s look.

The disc drive will potentially also be sold separately, meaning that those with a digital-only PS5 will have an easier method for upgrading their consoles.
It should be noted that Amazon is also offering vouchers for up to £50 off electronics at the moment, which can be used on the PS5 for a further discount.
If you have received an email for a 15% discount on electronics, then you can save a lot more money on your PS5 purchase.
