We’ve not even hit the Boxing Day sales in Australia, but Amazon is clearly getting into the giving spirit early with a huge price drop on the PS5 Slim digital edition, bringing it down to just AU$477 – that’s a massive 36% discount!
Impressively, it beats the AU$488 low we saw during the recent Black Friday sales. We also saw the EA Sports FC26 bundle going for just AU$1 more – AU$489 – and in similar fashion, Amazon also has a Fortnite bundle for AU$479. An extra AU$2 for one of the most popular games in recent memory is a sweet deal if you ask me.
Many of Australia’s major retailers also have some stellar discounts on the same PS5 Slim console – JB Hi-Fi has it for AU$479 for example – but Amazon is your best bet for the lowest price. And the retailer will get it shipped to your door ahead of Christmas if you live in a metro area.
Sony PlayStation 5 Slim Digital Edition: was AU$799.95 now AU$477 at AmazonBeating its Black Friday price by AU$11, this is a superb opportunity to grab the PS5 if you’ve yet to get one for yourself. Or, at this price, it makes for a perfect Christmas gift. To reiterate, however, this is the digital edition, so it won’t run physical game discs. Digital copies can often cost more, so you’ll want to factor this in. Grab the Fortnite Flowering Chaos for AU$2 more.
View DealIf you’d rather the disc version of the PS5, that’s also discounted to AU$629 for the standalone console (not quite as good as its Black Friday price), or the same price with a copy of Fortnite Flowering Chaos.
Alternatively, if you want to invest in the more powerful PS5 Pro, you can save 19% on the standalone console, now AU$977 (down from AU$1,199.95).
And, as an added bonus, if you’ve been keen to own the PSVR2 headset, that’s also down to a more palatable price at Amazon at AU$498. It did dip below AU$480 during Black Friday, but this is still an attractive price.
Sony PSVR 2: was AU$649.95 now AU$498 at AmazonIf you’ve been hesitant to invest in the PSVR 2 at its full price, this early Boxing Day deal brings it down to a more accessible price point. Offering a seamless gateway to VR gaming when connected to a PS5, I reckon it’s a no-brainer.
