The new obsession of collectors has a name. It is called PS5 30th Anniversary Edition and it will arrive on November 21st in an extremely limited way, just like what happened with the PS4 20th Anniversary Edition. But even though Sony officially announced this edition, we still had to find out the official price of the product. Do you think it will also have a special price? Don't worry, it won't be that much.
Where to buy the PS5 30th anniversary
The new console can only be purchased from the official PlayStation online store, at live.playstation.com. This store is not available in all countries, however, it is available in Spain, so you will only have to visit the website as of September 26 to be able to get a unit of the console.
The price is still unknown, but there are already those who have received privileged information about it, and it is that from the well-known leaker billbil-kun, we know that the limited edition of PS5 (the normal one) will have a price of $499, that is, 50 dollars more than the official price of the usual version. That invites us to think of a increase of about 50-60 euros in Europe, so the 30th anniversary version of PS5 would go on sale for around 510-520 euros, taking into account that it is the digital edition without a disc reader.
For that price, you'll get the console, a controller, an optical drive cover, a vertical stand, and some colorful accessories commemorating the anniversary.

The real limited edition
But the interesting thing will be in the PS30 Pro 5th Anniversary Edition. The most powerful model that will hit the market on November 7 will also have an anniversary version. The problem will be that There will only be 12.300 units, and demand is expected to be very high given the sad resale of this type of products.
The price of this model has not been leaked, however, it is expected that it will not suffer a large increase considering that the normal version already costs 799 euros, an extremely high figure for a console.
Chances are, every version of the console and every accessory will be gone within minutes, so you'd better be prepared and plan for a possible scenario where you don't get to buy the console, as that's the most likely scenario to happen. At the very least, you'll have a better chance of getting your hands on the 30th Anniversary DualSense or the 30th Anniversary version of PlayStation Portal, which will also come in the unmistakable PlayStation grey and logo colors.
