Sony PS5 and PS5 Digital Edition prices announced, India launch on November 19

After Microsoft released all details on the Xbox Series X and Series S, it was only a matter of time until Sony did the same. Today, we have all the prices and release dates for the PlayStation 5 generation consoles. Sony is coming up with the PS5 and PS5 Digital Edition at two different prices. Moreover, the consoles will go on sale starting November 12 in select countries, followed by a global release on November 19.

Sony tries to fend off against the Xbox duo with a clever pricing strategy. The flagship PS5 with its Blu-ray player will set you back by $499. This is exactly the same price as the Xbox Series X. The PS5 Digital Edition without the Blu-ray player costs $399, which is almost a $100 more than the Xbox Series S. However, the Series S is a downgraded console whereas the PS5 Digital Edition has the same hardware as the PS5.
