Savings of up to 34% off on the PS5 consoles, DualSense controllers and Sony gaming headsets
PS5 Pro pre-orders have gone live as of 10am AEST on 26 September, but the PS5 Slim might be the console to buy if you aren’t too keen on spending top dollar. Right now on Amazon the digital edition PS5 Slim is down to less than half the price of the AU$1,199 Pro – which is also disc-less – while those holding onto physical media can enjoy the model with the disc-tray included for only AU$675.
Whether you’re entering the current generation, upgrading from your bulky PS5 or grabbing a second console, there’s been few better times to do so than right now. Sony just announced all-new Chroma PS5 Slim covers and Dualsense colourways, and upcoming games like Ghost of Yotei and Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered at its September State of Play presentation. Additionally, games like The Last of Us: Part One, Ghost of Tsushima and Red Dead Redemption 2 are just a PS Plus Extra subscription away. Making the AU$124.95 saving just one reason why it’s a good time to buy a PS5 Slim.

If you’re ready to leave physical games behind, or already find yourself with a massive digital library, the Digital edition PS5 Slim is a no-brainer. You’ll be able to play every PS4 game you own in your PlayStation library, and the lack of a disc-tray means the bottom half of the console is considerably thinner if you have limited space. However, it’s worth remembering that this will mean you’re limited to only buying off the PSN store.
