Where to buy a PS5 in Australia: The new RRP has taken effect, so expect to pay at least AU$919 for a PS5

Nowadays it's easy to pick up a PS5 console or bundle in Australia, whether you're after the standalone disc or digital version, but getting them cheaper than RRP can sometimes be a challenge.

Things have gotten worse for PS5 bargain hunters, because on March 28 Sony announced a third price hike for all models of the PS5. Starting April 2, 2026, the base PS5 disc model now costs AU$999.95, the PS5 digital model costs AU$919.95, while the PS5 Pro is AU$1,399.95.

By the way, the digital PS5 and the PS5 Pro don't come with a disc drive, so you'll need to buy the Ultra HD Blu-ray Disc Drive for PS5 for AU$124.95 to tack onto the side, if you're lucky enough to find one in stock.

This paints a pretty bleak picture for prospective PS5 owners: a base PS5 now costs AU$250 more than it did when it launched in November 2020. So it's probably more important than ever to keep an eye out for PS5 deals in Australia, and that's what this page is all about.

Sony Online
Buying a PS5 direct from the source seems like a no-brainer: it also offers free shipping, and an option to price match with other local retailers.

EB Games
EB Games is another good option if you'd prefer to buy your console at a bricks and mortar store, though their online offerings tend not to see the (admittedly small) discounts seen on dedicated online shopfronts.
