I'm surprised I haven't seen anybody mention how this is a price increase for the digital version. This one costs $50 more.
Not only did they increase the price, but they reduced the quantity too! Classic corpo move
Shrinkflation! Sony should be ashamed...
Because is not like the previous digital version, now they are the same but there is an option that includes the CD Drive and one that doesn't include it but can be purchased separately in the future (digital version)
Yeah, but if you don't care about the possibility of having physical discs, it's still a price increase.
If you don’t care about the possibility of having physical discs, price probably isn’t a large factor to you.
I believe this price increase only applies to the US and Japan (where the Digital SKU is around ¥50,000 atm afaict), as far as what's been announced. UK and EU pricing remains similar to the existing one.
Shrinkflation strikes again
