PS5 Pro 30th Anniversary price revealed: here's how much Sony's ...
???? The PS5 Pro 30th Anniversary price has finally been revealed
???? It costs $999.99, which is cheaper than many were expecting
???? Sony hasn’t marked up the bundle as much as we thought
???? It also means US gamers have gotten the best deal overall
Even though we’re close to PlayStation 5 Pro pre-orders going live, Sony has chosen to keep the PS5 Pro 30th Anniversary price a secret. However, we’ve finally found out how much the console costs after getting a hint when the coveted console went live in other countries (and quickly sold out).
The price of the PS5 Pro 30th Anniversary isn’t cheap, that’s something we already predicted. The standard PS5 Pro costs an eye-watering $699.99, which makes it the most expensive console Sony has ever made. And with only 12,300 units of the retro-themed PS5 Pro being available, Sony knows that it can charge a little extra on top due to how high demand will be.

A quick peek inside the PS5 30th Anniversary bundle also explains the price. Those lucky enough to get the console (make sure you don’t miss the PS5 Pro 30th Anniversary pre-order time) will get a PS5 Pro, a DualSense Edge, a DualSense Charging Stand, a Vertical Stand, a Disc Drive Cover, and exclusive extras. Priced individually, altogether you’d have to pay $959.99.
As mentioned earlier, the PS5 Pro 30th Anniversary Edition was £959.99 in the UK, AU$1,649.95 in Australia, and €1099,99 in Europe. Sony was unlikely to sell the console for $959.99 in the US, though it’s been surprisingly reserved in its final decision.
The PS5 Pro 30th Anniversary price is $999.99. That’s actually lower than many predicted, as it seemed like the bundle would exceed $1,000.
A quick currency exchange check showed that the console’s US price averaged between $1,135 and $1,282 when you convert the UK, Australian, and European prices. The PS5 Pro 30th Anniversary price only being $999.99 means US consumers have got the best deal out of every country.
