PS5 vs PS5 Digital Edition: What's the Difference?

The PlayStation 5 Digital Edition is very similar to the regular version of the console, but has several important differences, which you will learn about in a moment.

During the presentation of the new generation of the console earlier this week, Sony also introduced the PlayStation 5 Digital Edition, which has several important differences from the standard console. Many fans and gamers have been waiting for Sony to reveal detailed information about the PS5 hardware, and have also been eagerly awaiting the announcement of new games for the platform. However, the surprise was not the appearance of new games, but the announcement of the PS5 Digital Edition .

Of course, not all details about the improved console have been made public. This is also due to the fact that the company plans to hold several presentations during the summer. But we have collected everything that is known about the differences between these consoles.

The main difference between the PS5 Digital Edition and all existing consoles of our time is that it will completely lack the Bly-Ray drive that was first installed on the PS3 a decade ago. Yes, yes, the owners of this version of the console simply will not be able to use physical media to play their favorite games. This will also affect the price of the console: it is assumed that hthen the Digital Edition will sell for an order of magnitude cheaper than a standard console with a Bly-Ray drive.

Recall that at the moment Sony has not yet officially decided on the price of the next-generation PlsyStation 5 console. At the moment, the PS5 is estimated to be somewhere between $400-500. As we have already noted, most likely the PS5 Digital Edition will be sold a little cheaper.
