Sony’s Brutal Price Hikes Have Bizarrely Made This Ghost of Yotei Bundle the Ultimate PS5 Deal Right Now

Finding a great deal on a PlayStation 5 has become significantly harder since Sony's brutal price hikes just a few weeks back. Yet, quite bizarrely, the price changes have also inadvertently turned a Ghost of Yotei PS5 bundle into a surprisingly strong offering for late adopters of the console. While it seems a tad oxymoronic to say that price increases have somehow made this a much better deal, it's a lot better than you might think. Let me break this down for you. Last year, when the Ghost of Yotei bundle first launched, it was priced at $599.99. That was $50 more than the PS5's previous standard MSRP of $549.99, but still a reasonable $20 saving when compared to buying the game and console separately. Yet, because a standard PS5 is now $100 more in 2026, the bundle's actual value proposition is now leagues better than before: As the bundle includes both the PS5 console and a Ghost of Yotei download code, you are actually saving closer to $120 overall on your purchase. That's also ignoring the fact that this is a highly sought-after bundle, featuring a custom console and matching DualSense controller decorated with artwork of the lands surrounding Mount Yotei. So what’s the catch
