You can also save 5% with PS Plus, netting you an incredibly rare discount.
This 5% extra saving seems to be a new PS Plus perk and is currently on offer to members with an active subscription in the UK. There doesn't seem to be a US equivalent right now, though that might change in the future.
Sony states that the discount is available on "a limited trial basis" until March 31, 2027. The 5% offer is applied automatically at checkout if you're eligible, though it does not apply to pre-order products or leasing plans.
Is this Sony's attempt to compete more aggressively with UK retailers, many of which offer significant console discounts throughout the year?
It seems so, and if this initiative is successful it could roll out to other regions soon.
