Sony has once again increased the prices of its popular gaming consoles, including the PlayStation 5 and the PlayStation 5 Pro. The latest price revision affects several Southeast Asian markets, while Indian gamers have been spared—for now.

The new pricing will come into effect from May 1, 2026, and applies to countries such as:

• Singapore
• Malaysia

• Philippines
• Vietnam

Why Is Sony Increasing Prices?

Sony has cited global economic pressure and rising production costs as the main reasons. Similar price hikes have already been seen in regions like the US, Europe, the UK, and Japan.

What About India?

For now, there is no price change in India, which is good news for buyers. However, given the global trend, a revision cannot be ruled out in the coming months.

Should You Buy Now?

If you’re planning to buy a PS5, this might be a good time to act. Global price hikes often eventually impact other markets, including India.
