We’re about to gain access to even more retro classics on Switch (and several other platforms) come January. The Top Racer Collection features remastered SNES racing games to play, and it’s set to launch on January 11, 2024 on Switch, PS4, PS5, Xbox One/Series S|X, and Steam.
With the new PS5 model, the Digital Edition is getting a $50 price increase

With the launch of the new PlayStation 5 model, the price of the Digital Edition console will rise by $50.
Sony announced on Tuesday that it plans to launch a smaller PS5 model in November in the US, before rolling it out to other regions in the following months.
Like the launch model, the new one will be available in two forms: a standard one featuring a disc drive and a Digital Edition without one.
The price of the new PS5 model and the old one will be the same in the UK and Europe.
However, the new Digital Edition console will be $50 more expensive in the US, where it will cost $449.99 instead of $399.99.
And the price of both new PS5 editions will be more expensive in Japan, where peripheral prices are also increasing this month.
It’s worth noting that the new PS5 model will come with a 1TB SSD, offering more storage space than the launch model’s 825GB SSD.
Sony said that once inventory of the current PS5 model has sold out, the new model will become the only one available.
PS5 standard edition price (launch model)
$499.99 / €549.99 / £479.99 / ¥60,478 (tax included)
PS5 standard edition price (new model)
$499.99 / €549.99 / £479.99 / ¥66,980 (tax included)
PS5 Digital Edition price (launch model)
$399.99 / €449.99 / £389.99 / ¥49,478 yen (tax included)
PS5 Digital Edition price (new model)
$449.99 / €449.99 / £389.99 / ¥59,980 (tax included)
Unlike with the current model, those who purchase the PS5 Digital Edition will be able to add a Blu-ray disc drive later, as it will also be sold separately for $79.99 / €119.99 / £99.99.
A horizontal stand will be included with the new PS5 model. A new Vertical Stand compatible with all PS5 models will also be sold separately for $29.99 / €29.99 / £24.99.
