Sony's throwback PS5 Pro bundle sells out just as quickly as fans find out how much it actually costs
Pre-orders are rolling out across the globe, leaving many to wonder how much the 30th-anniversary bundle costs in the US
PlayStation 30th Anniversary Collection pre-orders are going live worldwide today, including a bundle that contains a rather retro-looking PS1-themed PS5 Pro and more. So, what are we looking at regarding price? As revealed through Sony's website - if you're lucky enough to pick one up - the 30th Anniversary bundle for the PS5 Pro costs $999.99 in the US, £959.99 in the UK, €1099.99 in Europe, and A$1,199 in Australia bucks.
We had to wait and see how the bundle would cost in America as pre-orders first went live across the UK, Europe, and beyond. Fans speculated we could have been looking between $1,100 and $1,200, though thankfully, Sony decided to be kinder than that.
If the UK sale has taught us anything, though, it's that you'll want to be swift. Sony previously revealed that the PlayStation manufacturer is only making 12,300 units of the limited edition PS5 Pro console globally. And, wouldn't you know it, they sold out within minutes here in the UK. Dare I say, it'll probably be something similar in the US.
As for the bundle itself, you're getting - if you're lucky to pick one up before it sells out - a limited edition version of the PS5 Pro console, DualSense Edge wireless controller, DualSense wireless controller, charging station, and more. If you're looking for the 30th Anniversary Limited Edition controller on its lonesome, that's $79.99, €79.99, or £69.99.
The standard PS5 Pro, meanwhile, will be released on November 7 and will cost $699.99, £699.99, or €799.99.
Good news, normal PS5 Pro pre-orders and PlayStation 30th Anniversary DualSense controller pre-orders are also going live right now.
