Recently, the US imposed a series of tariffs on goods produced in many countries around the world, most notably China, where a lot of consoles are manufactured. Now, Sony has said it won't be ruling out further price hikes for the PS5.
During a recent earnings call, Sony chief financial officer Lin Tao says "we may pass [tariff costs on] to the price," meaning we could see another price hike on the already expensive console. Sony Group Corporation president and CEO Hiroki Totoki also adds that "whether it is going to be manufactured in the US or not, it needs to be considered going forward."
