The cost of the PlayStation 5 is set to go up for Irish customers as Sony attributes the price increase to rampant inflation.
Sony announced the price rise on the PlayStation blog today, saying that it will affect customers in Europe, the UK, Middle East, Africa, Asia, South America and Canada. The US seems to be the one market unaffected by the change.
"The global economic environment is a challenge that many of you around the world are no doubt experiencing," the blog said. "We’re seeing high global inflation rates, as well as adverse currency trends, impacting consumers and creating pressure on many industries."
