Time is ticking until the Sony event on 5/4/20. Most likely we'll see a price at the end of the press conference.

What is the price and why?

$499. Sony knows they can't launch a system at $599 again. Even if that means they gotta take some losses they're gonna do it.

Why do you think its likely? They already said this is one in a series of events. While its possible they announce the price here... they might just wait in this game of chicken vs Microsoft.

I wouldn't bet on a price reveal next week, sounds like it's going to be a software showcasing.

At any case, it's either 399$ or 450$, 499$ is possible, but I think they're going to go with a lower price point.

£450 to £499 I think, it cannot be over £500 unless it is for the upgraded version with bigger SSD and or VR, I want to know more about the VR for the PS5.

My gut says $499, but that's also probably my limit on what I'd spend for a PS5 on day one...

Jim Ryans statement about value in that article makes you think it won't be $399, I have said from the start I think both will be $499 and nothing so far has shown that to be in doubt.

You'll buy it at any price! Even if you have to get a second job at Burger King furlough payment in lieu of new jobs existing right now to afford it!

$500, same as XSX

People are going to be pissed if Sony doesn't announce the price next week!

499.

I don't think you'll see price next week. There'll be a series of announcements over the summer/autumn, that will probably come later.

$449 seems like a weird price.

$499 seems the most likely. I don't care if its $599 but less is obviously better.

$499

The SSD and cooling will jack the price up.

I'd be surprised if they went above $399. It's not 2000 anymore. The real money is in long-term subscriptions like Xbox Game Pass and PS Now. I think both companies would be willing to let their consoles be loss leaders, especially with how the pandemic has accelerated the acceptance of digital sales (which are generally more profitable than physical sales).
