The average cost of the PlayStation 5 in November was RUB102 thousand. The corresponding price dynamics can be seen in the Yandex.Market aggregator. At the same time, the recommended price set by Sony is RUB49,000.
The consoles are only available from resellers. The jump in prices is associated with increased demand against the backdrop of the upcoming holidays and the lack of large supplies. At the same time, the minimum price for the console available for purchase is ₽99,998, and the maximum price is ₽113,018.
Against the backdrop of the global semiconductor crisis, Sony plans to cut production of the PS5 in 2022 – the forecast has been reduced from 16 million to 15 million devices. It is expected that the shortage of consoles will last the entire next year and will improve only by 2023.
