This disc edition of the console includes a detachable 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray drive, contributing to its sleek profile when not in use. The console retains its distinctive white aesthetic with a redesigned four-panel layout, allowing for increased customization. The top two panels have a glossy finish, while the bottom two are matte. The new PS5 Slim also features four USB ports (two front-facing USB-C and two rear USB-A), HDMI out, Ethernet ports, and an upgraded 1TB onboard storage compared to the previous model’s 825GB SSD (Solid-State Drive).
In the package, purchasers will find a Sony PS5 DualSense wireless controller, an HDMI cable, and an AC power cable. Although it includes a horizontal stand, a vertical stand is not included and must be purchased separately for an additional $29.99.
The PS5 Slim model is available in bundles at Target and Walmart, featuring Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III (digital download) and Marvel’s Spider-Man 2, respectively. Both bundles are priced at $499 and $499.99, providing added value as the included games have a standalone value of $69.99 each.
