PS5 Pro is a powerful refresh of the base PS5 hardware. It's the best way to experience the PS5's large library of must-play games and the current pinnacle of console gaming. However, the eye-watering $699 price tag makes it a machine that will only appeal to the most dedicated gamers.

Sony is preparing to kick off a huge new sale on base models of the PS5 that will see its cost falling below the $400 threshold.

PS5 Slim Digital Edition price drops to $379.99 until December 24. Slim variant retains original PS5 specs in a more compact design. Specific start date for the deal has not been announced at the time of this writing.
