New PS5 Slim Model Available in Europe and US; Releases on November 29 in UK
Sony's PlayStation hardware revision, the PS5 Slim model, is available now in various European countries as well as the US.
We did know that the model would be arriving somewhere this month, and we had already seen some hardware bundles with the new model, including the Spider-Man 2 Slim bundle. An exact release date when Sony started to roll out the new model wasn't confirmed just yet. Luckily, those in the US and Europe can now get their hands on the slimmer model. In France, the new PS5 model was released today, and it's already available in PlayStation Direct stores in Germany and The Netherlands as well. In the US, the new model can also be ordered through Sony's official store, and it will likely show up at retailers as well.
