PS5 Goes for the Kill with New Discounts in Europe | Push Square
Sony is still aiming to ship an impressive 25 million PS5 consoles this fiscal year, and it’s got a little over a month to achieve the milestone. Right across Europe, it’s currently discounting the price of the remodelled PS5 Slim, where in Italy you can get savings of up to €75 through 25th February. That makes the system €474.99 as opposed to its usual €549.99.
A similar “flash sale” is being offered in France, with some retailers creating their own doorbusters all the way down to €449.99. While nothing official has been announced at this stage, we wouldn’t be surprised to see similar deals roll out right around the world as the Japanese giant looks to take total control of the current console generation.
Assuming the company can achieve its goal of 25 million units shipped, it would set a new record for PlayStation consoles, when the PS1 managed 22.6 million units in a 12-month period over 25 years ago. Do you think it’ll get there? Let us know in the comments section below.

Stop… it’s already dead!
Awesome, kill it with fire!
Well, last year was big for games and whet people’s appetite for PS5 and this year seems just as strong (if not stronger).
It would be mighty impressive to see 25 million sold this year. But I doubt it will kill off Xbox though. They’re gonna be sticking around.
I can see that Sony is preparing to release PS5 Pro at
