Sony's recent price increase on PS5 DualSense controllers marks a notable shift in the company's pricing strategy amidst ongoing global economic challenges.
The cost of standard PS5 DualSense controllers has risen by $5, now starting at $75, while the DualSense Edge remains unaffected at $200, highlighting pricing inconsistencies.
Despite falling hardware sales, Sony's price hikes contradict traditional market trends where prices generally decrease over time as component costs decline.
The gaming industry is feeling the impact of economic conditions, as evidenced by price increases from both Sony and Microsoft, with Nintendo remaining firm on prices.
