Same price, less storage. Shrinkflation at its finest.
Sony plans to release a new PS5 Slim All-Digital console with an 825GB SSD, reducing storage from the previous 1TB to optimize production costs amid rising expenses. The PS5 Slim Standard with a disc drive will retain the 1TB SSD, and the updated model is expected to launch in Europe first.
Even with the PS4, the bluray couldn’t play the game.
It had to install to the internal drive and download updates
Makes sense, blurays are at like 50MB/s read, at least you could keep the disc and share it
