The highly sought-after PS5 Slim Digital Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 bundle is currently available at PlayStation Direct for an attractive price of $400. However, this offer is expected to be short-lived. PlayStation has confirmed upcoming hardware price adjustments for all PS5 consoles in the US, effective August 21. This increment will raise the price of the PS5 Slim Digital model by $50, from its current $450 to $500.
Launched in May, this Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 PS5 Slim Digital bundle has consistently provided exceptional value at its promotional price point of $400. Its current estimated value stands at $520. Even for those not primarily interested in the Call of Duty game, purchasing this bundle still translates to a $50 saving compared to buying the console separately. With the impending price increases, these savings effectively double to $100 on the console alone, making the inclusion of Black Ops 6 an even more significant bonus.
A standard PS5 Slim version of this bundle was also released by PlayStation at $450, but it is currently out of stock across all retailers. As a promotional console package, this specific bundle is not anticipated to undergo a price increase akin to the standalone PS5 Slim Digital. Nevertheless, its availability is expected to be extremely limited, likely vanishing before the new pricing structure is implemented.
This PS5 Slim Digital console package comes complete with a voucher for Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, redeemable via the PlayStation Store. Additionally, the bundle includes a white DualSense Controller and essential cables: a USB-C charging cable, an HDMI cable, and the power cord. For users wishing to orient their PS5 vertically, a separate Vertical Stand is required, available for $30. Should you choose the Slim Digital console and later desire to play physical disc-based games, the Disc Drive can be purchased as an add-on for $80. The Vertical Stand remains an optional, separate purchase in this scenario as well.
Updated PlayStation 5 Hardware Pricing Effective August 21
- PS5 Slim – $550 (previously $500)
- PS5 Slim Digital – $500 (previously $450)
- PS5 Pro – $750 (previously $700)
As of now, all three console variations are still available at their pre-increase prices on Amazon. This means you can acquire the PS5 Pro for $699 and the PS5 Slim with a disc drive for $500 until tomorrow, August 21st, after which the new pricing will apply.
