On September 10, 2024, Sony officially introduced the updated PlayStation 5 Pro console, which immediately sparked active discussions on the network due to its price — $700. But is the new console really that much more expensive than previous generations?
Mezha.Media editor Oleg Danilov noted that if you take into account inflation and convert the cost of each of Sony's consoles to modern prices, then the PlayStation 5 Pro will not be the most expensive and has quite the usual price.

- PlayStation 3 – $950
- PlayStation 4 – $545
- PlayStation 4 Pro – $530
- PlayStation 5 – $610
- PlayStation 5 Pro – $699
As you can see, although the PlayStation 5 Pro is more expensive than most previous consoles, it is inferior to the PlayStation 3. However, the PS3 had support for PS1 and PS2 disc games and was a popular disc playback device.< /p>
