When the price increases for PlayStation 5 consoles went into effect on April 2nd, we weren’t sure when the next time a good discount would happen. Surely, not for at least a couple months, right? Well, now just a few weeks later, Sony’s direct-to-consumer site is offering the slim PS5 console with no disc drive for $399. That’s a whopping $200 less than it costs at other retailers. It wasn’t uncommon to see this price in late 2025, but it’s rare these days.
The particular bundle that’s discounted is just like other slim digital PlayStation 5 consoles. You’ll get a PS5, a DualSense controller, a power cord, and an HDMI cord (the vertical stand is sold separately). However, it also includes some Fortnite cosmetics that you can redeem in the free-to-play third-person shooter. As mentioned earlier, the digital-only console doesn’t include a disc drive, but an add-on can be purchased for $79.99 and attached to it for playing discs, be it a game or a 4K Blu-ray.
