PS5 Consoles Are Discounted Ahead Of Prime Day

With several upcoming and highly anticipated games leaving last-gen behind, now is a good time to upgrade to a more modern console like the PlayStation 5. More readily available, early Prime Day 2023 specials for the PS5 make it a tempting purchase. At Antonline, the Diablo 4 PS5 bundle is available for $500, but if you don’t want to explore Blizzard’s return to hell, you can get the console on its own for just $440 when you use the ZIP payment plan with the code ZIPTECH.

This special is for the PS5 with a Blu-ray disc drive, so you’ll be able to pop in a game or a film and start enjoying the benefits of this platform right out of the box. The Diablo IV edition includes the hit game, an action-RPG in which you explore a world plagued by demons, but otherwise this is the same console in either deal.

Besides an eye-catching design, the PS5 has a lightning-fast 825GB SSD that can load games within seconds as compared to the minutes that you’d spend waiting to start a new level in the PS4 generation. Games also look naturally better on its more modern hardware, and if you have a 4K OLED TV, the 4K difference is noticeable. Other key features include the impressive Tempest 3D audio technology and the DualSense controller which comes packaged with each PS5.

This controller is one of the most advanced peripherals on the market, and features Adaptive Triggers, nuanced haptic feedback, and an ergonomic design for those long gaming sessions. For your game library, there are several PS5 exclusives to play on the console–including the recent release of Final Fantasy 16–and it’s backwards compatible with almost every PS4 game. A subscription to PS Plus Extra or Premium is also a great route into expanding your collection, as this service features a rotating selection of first and third-party games to enjoy.

“With the PS5, instead of simply releasing a new console with more horsepower, Sony has taken a bolder step to clearly establish that this is a brand-new generation,” Mat Paget wrote in GameSpot’s PS5 review. “The PS5’s console design speaks to this, looking less like a PlayStation and more like an evil megacorp’s cyberpunk headquarters. It’s a brash design that looks nice when standing tall and a little strange when resting on its side, but in either orientation it’s undeniably eye-catching. The next-generation machine is big, bold, and next to stablemates like the PS4 Pro, downright intimidating.”
