The PS4 Pro price cut is announced for Japan this month

The official Japanese PlayStation website has revealed an upcoming price drop for the PlayStation 4 Pro 4K compatible. As of October 12, 2018, the powerful console will go from a retail price of 44,980 yen to 39,980 yen. It's about $ 50, although the numbers do not translate to 1: 1.

This price drop seems to be universal. In the same ad, it was also noted that the PlayStation 4 Pro Kingdom Hearts III The price of limited edition sets will be down, able to adapt to consoles. He also stated that there was some kind of bonus in relation to the release of Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 as it launches the same day of the price decline.

Finally, the Glacier White model of the PlayStation 4 Pro is also part of the announcement. In Japan, this color variant was only available in limited edition in early March 2018. Along with lower prices, the PlayStation 4 Pro Glacier White will become available in a standard capacity.

This announcement is only for Japan at the moment, with no price reduction on the PlayStation 4 in North America. However, as we enter the fall season, it means that we are approaching Black Friday, so never say never. The timing of these things does not always align, so watch PlayStation Lifestyle for any updates.
