If you've been considering splashing the cash on a new PlayStation 5 console, you might want to do so now, because Sony is preparing to hike the prices of its hardware by more than $100 next month.
In the US, you can still grab the PS5 for $549 at Walmart before the price increases to $649.99 next month. The PS5 Pro is still $749 at Walmart, undeniably on the pricey side, but it will receive a $150 price increase in just a couple of days, so now's your chance to invest.
In the UK, Argos is offering a £30 discount on the PS5, bringing the console down to £449.99 (was £479.99), which could be the cheapest it is before the price increases to £569.99 in April.
If you want to buy in the more powerful console, the PS5 Pro is now £639.99 (was £699.99) at Argos, saving you £60; a steal if you want to beat the upcoming price hikes.
