The PS5 launched in 2022 and maintained strict pricing for years, with Sony rarely offering any meaningful discounts even during major shopping events. This marks the first year the console sees genuine Black Friday price cuts, and these deals appear exclusively on Amazon. The PS5 Slim with disc drive drops to $449 from $549, while the Digital Edition hits $399 instead of $499.
Sony is now selling a revised model of the digital PS5 slim in the US that has less storage than the original version. The updated model with 825GB of internal SSD storage instead of 1TB recently went on sale in Europe, but now it's available to buy on the US PlayStation Direct website as well. The revised digital edition console, which Sony says is in the "CFI-2100 model group - slim," still starts at $499.99, even with the reduced storage space.
