During an interview with USA Today, Andrew House revealed that “select” models of the PS4 will be receiving a $50 price drop from June 9 to June 17. Additional discounts on software and accessories have also been promised. Some retailers (such as Amazon) are already selling the slim for $250, but this means that the lower price will be available much more widely.
Ahead of E3, House revealed how other aspects of the PlayStation business is doing, which he declared is profitable and going strong. Sony has sold 60 million PS4 units overall, with one in five of those being the pricier and more powerful PS4 Pro models that provide gamers a 4K video experience. Some 645 million hours have been spent gaming on PS4 Pro, Sony says. FIFA 17, Grand Theft Auto V and Final Fantasy XV have been the top titles. To capitalize on the buzz around E3, Sony will drop the price on select PS 4 systems from $299 to $249, between June 9 and June 17, with additional discounts on software and accessories.
