Sony has increased the prices of its PlayStation 5 gaming consoles several times in the span of past one year. Most of these price hikes have impacted the global markets. Now, the company has added India to the list as Sony has officially increased the price of the PS5 gaming console in the country.

According to the information available on Sony Centre, company's official online store in India, the cost of the disc-based Standard Edition of the PS5 console now stands at ₹69,990. Earlier, it was available at a price of ₹54,990 on the platform. This marks a jump of ₹15,000 or nearly 28 percent.

However, the digital edition of PS5 is not currently listed on Sony Centre or the ShopAtSC website. So the revised pricing remains unknown for now. It is worth mentioning that Sony had price of the PS5 Digital Edition in India in July 2025. At the time, its price went up from ₹44,990 to ₹49,990, marking a rise of ₹5,000. The company hadn't increased the price of the PS5 Standard Edition in India at the time. So, it is possible that the company not increase the price of the PS5 Digital Edition now. We'll have to wait for the company to update its storefront in India to know for sure.
