Sony has announced a raft of PlayStation price hikes, increasing the cost of everything from the base PlayStation 5 to the hugely popular PlayStation Portal accessory.

The PS Portal is set to rocket up in cost by $50 / 20, to $249.99 / 219.99 rather than the original $199.99 / 199.99. These changes are only set to take effect on April 2, 2026, though, so there might be just a few more days to pick one up at the old rate and save some cash. If you're in the US, I would recommend heading straight to PlayStation Direct where stock seems plentiful and the price is still just $199 .

For those in the UK, the current best price is over at EE. The telecommunications giant has the PS Portal on sale right now, priced at only 190 (was 199) , for a total saving of 29.99 compared to the upcoming price. Here's everything you need to know.

The last time Sony increased the price of its hardware was in August 2025 , when it stated that "a challenging economic environment" had led to the "difficult decision" of hiking the cost of PS5 consoles by $50.

This time, the company is blaming "continued pressures in the global economic landscape."

"This was a necessary step to ensure we can continue delivering innovative, high-quality gaming experiences to players worldwide," explained Isabelle Tomatis, vice president, global marketing, Sony Interactive Entertainment.
