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. Last year we saw the standalone PS5 go for as little as AU$649, though on most normal days you can expect to save around AU$40 if you shop around. With the PS5 Pro vying for bucks as well, there's every possibility the PS5 Slim will be subject to even steeper discounts during the course of 2025.

The RRP for the PS5 in Australia is AU$799.95 for the disc model, and AU$679.95 for the digital model. The PS5 Slim has launched alongside its new digital (and more expensive) iteration, with older models now mostly supplanted at the big reputable outlets. The design on these is slightly smaller, shedding 30% of the form factor from the vanilla model.

As for the PS5 Pro, that launched in November 2024 and will set you back a rather eye-watering AU$1,199.95. The stock issues that blighted the PS5's launch hasn't occurred with this mid-gen refresh, presumably because it's prohibitively expensive. Read our PS5 Pro review for a closer look, and to see whether it's right for you or not.

By the way, like the digital PS5, the PS5 Pro won't come with a disc drive, so you'll need to buy the Ultra HD Blu-ray Disc Drive for PS5 to tack onto the side.

If you want a console right now: all relevant retailers are listed below, as well as the respective bundles available.

Australian PS5 stockists

Amazon AU
In stock:
standalone slim console with disc drive | AU$799
In stock: standalone digital console | AU$679
In stock:
PS5 Pro | AU$1,199
As far as online outlets are concerned, Amazon reliably has PS5 stock, and it tends to be a little beneath the RRP most of the time, if only by a couple of bucks. Prices tend to fluctuate, so if you're not happy with today's price, check back tomorrow.

Big W [In stock: AU$799 online; check in-store]

Big W [In stock: AU$799 online; check in-store]
This big Aussie retailer receives stock quite often, but it generally only lasts for a minute or so. That means you'll have to be quick off the mark. Sometimes Big W orders are delivery only affairs.

The Gamesmen

Aussie independent games retailer The Gamesmen gets PS5 stock, so it's another outlet you should keep an eye on: If we get news on stock drops we'll add them to the top of this page.

Sony Online [Available to order]

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.

JB Hi-FiIn stock: AU$799

JB Hi-Fi
In stock:
Standalone console | AU$799
Like other retailers, JB Hi-Fi's stock is for the PS5 Slim, with the vanilla edition now seemingly out of stock.

EB Games [Standard in stock for AU$799.95]

EB Games [Standard in stock for AU$799.95]
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.
