New PS5 disc drive stock arrives in the UK as Currys raises price to £109

videogameschronicle.com

New stock of the PS5 Disc Drive is arriving in the UK, with Currys now selling it for £109, up from the standard price of £99. This price increase is specific to Currys, as PlayStation Direct still lists it at £99. The disc drive has been largely sold out at major retailers, leading to inflated prices on eBay, where listings range from £150 to £250. The drive was initially available when the PS5 slim model launched in 2023. The price rise follows the announcement that the upcoming PS5 Pro will not include a disc drive, making the add-on more sought after. Meanwhile, the PS5 Pro console itself remains available, with some sellers reportedly losing money due to low demand.
