Missed Out on a PS5 Sale? Don’t Worry, Target Is Bringing a $449 Deal This Weekend!

PlayStation has been playing its cards right in 2023. After news of Microsoft’s deal to take over Activision Blizzard broke, Sony was worried about their market position. This is because PlayStation’s exclusive and fan-favorite title, Call of Duty, could potentially turn into an Xbox exclusive. However, PlayStation’s attempt to remain in the competition brought an amazing PlayStation July sale to the fans. This sale happened from 2nd to 12th June, giving major discounts on many PlayStation games. 

Sony has planned to continue the trend, with yet another sale in association with Target. Recent news about discounts on PlayStation consoles for those who buy their Sony devices from Target has fans very excited.

Sony is dropping the price of PlayStation 5 consoles sold at Target

Sony PlayStation’s June sale was incredible with so many exciting offers for fans. This sale offered PlayStation Plus subscriptions for a 25% discount. Additionally, this discount was also applicable to members willing to renew their plans. PlayStation also offered all these deals on its official website, store, PlayStation Gear, and PlayStation Plus. Although this sale is over, PlayStation fans need not worry. 

This is because PlayStation 5 consoles are available at an exclusive discounted price at Target. Starting on August 6 and ending on August 12, this sale looks like a jackpot for buyers. This sale will bring PlayStation 5 to Sony patrons for just $449.99 along with DualSense controllers, which are also priced at $49.99. 

The sale list doesn’t end here. Sony is also offering both The Last of Us Part 1 and Marvel’s Spider-Man Miles Morales Edition at $39.99. Sony’s offers on Target surely blew fans’ minds away. In fact, fans are hoping that other retailers will also follow Target’s lead and sell PlayStation 5 devices at a discounted price. 

Will other retailers also follow Target’s lead?

PlayStation 5’s sale price on Target is the device’s debut venture in discount. This discount is a standalone sale unlike PlayStation’s previous offers, where the discounts were only there for bundles.

In the United States, rumors suggest that after Target’s discount, other retailers like Amazon, Walmart, and Best Buy may also place PlayStation 5 devices on sale. However, some rumors also hinted at the company’s plan to release a new slim version of PlayStation 5 soon. Many think this might be the reason behind the discounted prices.
