Update: Amazon UK told IGN that the price listed on the website was “an error.”
Original Story: A lot of new listings for PlayStation 5 and PS5 games just went up on Amazon UK that pretty much confirm titles coming from developers like Konami, 2K Games, Rockstar Games, etc. As for the console, we may have our first clue at the PlayStation 5 price.
According to the now-deleted online listings from Amazon UK, the 2TB PlayStation 5 price is £599 which is roughly $764 USD. But, there’s one thing worth noting. Sony has already revealed that the new PlayStation 5 console will have 825GB storage space, so this pretty much confirms that the price shown in the listing is indeed a placeholder price.

Even if they want to double the storage capacity, that would be 1.65TB and not 2TB. Wario64 on Twitter also pointed out that the price for a 1TB PS5 console is also £599. Keep in mind that these are placeholder listings that have a 99% chance of having incorrect details.
