PlayStation 5 Prices In US Increase As Tariffs Begin To Hit
Sony announced Wednesday that it will be increasing the price of its PlayStation 5 consoles in the United States by $50 beginning Thursday.

The new price increase are as follows:

Sony said that accessories for PlayStation 5 will remain unchanged.
