\u201cAs of May 1, we have adjusted recommended retailer pricing for our consoles and controllers worldwide. We also expect to adjust the pricing of some of our new, first-party games starting this holiday season to $79.99. Those titles purchased on the Xbox Store have the benefit of Xbox Play Anywhere, allowing players to buy once and play on console and PC at no additional cost,\u201d the company wrote in an announcement<\/a>.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe understand that these changes are challenging, and they were made with careful consideration given market conditions and the rising cost of development. Looking ahead, we continue to focus on offering more ways to play more games across any screen and ensuring value for Xbox players,\u201d they added.<\/p>\n
Sony has yet to increase the price of the PS5 in the US, but they themselves have already increased the price of the PS5 in Europe, Australia, New Zealand and other parts of the world<\/a> more than once.<\/p>\n
