PS5 Pro's Price Draws Gasps Globally, But Would a PC Be Better?

The announcement of the PS5 Pro's pricing has ignited a flurry of reactions across social media platforms, particularly on Twitter (X). Set to launch at $700 in the US, the console's price has become a hot topic due to its significant cost. However, while Americans may feel the pinch, gamers in Japan and Europe are facing even steeper prices.

In Japan, the PS5 Pro will retail for 119,980 yen, which translates to approximately $847 USD. In Europe, the console is priced at €799.99, and in the UK, it's set at £699.99. Considering current exchange rates, $700 would equate to about 100,000 yen in Japan, roughly £537 in the UK, and €635 in Europe.

These price differences have prompted many to consider buying the PS5 Pro in the US and shipping it internationally to save money. While specific pre-order details are yet to be announced, it's expected that the PS5 Pro will be available through PlayStation Direct, Sony's online store, as well as major retailers like Amazon, Best Buy, Walmart, Target, and GameStop.
