Analyst: Two reasons speak for 450 – 500 dollars
The analyst presents two reasons why it is suspected that the price of the Xbox Series X and the PS5 will be between 450 and 500 euros.
PS5, Xbox Series X: Economic recession
The first reason mentioned by the firm is the economic recession that the economy has fallen into because of Corona and which will continue to affect it.
People have less money and are also not willing to spend much money on new technology.
The analyst also believes that after the recession, the price of the consoles could increase.
PS5, Xbox Series X: Backward compatibility
The second reason is the backward compatibility of the PS5 and the Xbox Series X. Many developers will likely release their games for both the new and the old consoles. Users therefore have no compelling reason to buy a new console. Also because additional hardware for 8K gaming is currently very expensive.
We at MeinMMO also believe that the PS4 will still have a high value despite the imminent PS5 release.
Sony and Microsoft seem to be watching each other regarding the price
It might take a while before we learn the final retail price of the PS5 and Xbox Series X. Recently, it seemed that Sony was waiting to see what price Microsoft would demand for their console – and Microsoft also appears to be waiting to see what price the PS5 will launch at.
