There’s just no reason to pay $70 here other than an easier preload and skipping a few extra steps.įollow me on Twitter, YouTube, Facebook and Instagram. ![]() I would probably just save the $10 and deal with the launch day upgrade drama. But it’s no wonder we keep running into confusing situations like this one, one that could play out again later with PS4/PS5’s God of War Ragarok, but I’m not sure Sony has talked about the potential upgrade process for that game yet. The sooner Sony straightens this out and perhaps admits that this was the wrong time for a global price hike of $10, the better, though they may be so committed to that at this point, they won’t reverse it. And even if you do buy games outright off Game Pass, Microsoft has not joined Sony in raising Series X game prices to $70 for their originals. Its generally 100 / 100 / £90 / ¥10,000 less, which could be really. ![]() This is of course, able to be contrasted with Microsoft, which not only offers simple upgrades through Xbox Smart Delivery, but launches all its first party games on Game Pass day one, so there’s no quibbling about price disparities. The absence of disc drive does, of course, make the Digital Edition of the PlayStation 5 cheaper than the full version. So why would anyone ever pay that $10 difference? But here, Horizon is coming out simultaneously on both platforms, and yet the promise of a free upgrade remains in place. As in, a free upgrade to the PS5 enhanced version of Ghost of Tsushima or something. Usually you see free upgrades offered for games that have already been released for a while. This shows how deeply weird the Sony games ecosystem is at the moment. There also may some complications with disc upgrades, where you will always need the PS4 disc inserted, and it could show PS4 upgrades waiting in your system even after you get the PS5 upgrade. ![]()
