The PS4 will be getting a price drop in India from this week. This isn't all. PS4 games, controllers, and PlayStation VR (PS VR) will be discounted as well. Multiple distributors speaking to Gadgets 360 have confirmed that this is a part of a Sony summer promotion which starts on April 12 and will end on June 15. The PS4 India price is Rs. 23,580 for the 500GB Slim variant and includes Gran Turismo Sport, Uncharted 4, and Horizon Zero Dawn Complete Edition all on disc. There's also three months of PS Plus which gives users access to multiplayer and cloud saves included as well.
While Sony is yet to officially announce these deals, it appears that the PS4[1] 1TB console will also see a discount too. The PS4 Pro however, will keep the same price. The other discounts on games and controllers should not be too dissimilar to what we saw during Sony's Diwali offers[2], with one change. Games that were priced at Rs. 999 will now be Rs. 1,125[3]. Gadgets 360 has requested Sony for comment and will update this story if we hear from the company.
Another addition is the discount on games like Spider-Man PS4[4] and God of War[5] which will now be Rs. 2,499 and Rs. 1,999 respectively. Expect these offers to go live by April 11 or April 12 on sites like Amazon India and Flipkart. Local game stores should have them as well.
That said, the PS4 Slim 500GB[6] for Rs. 23,580 with three months of PS Plus and Horizon Zero Dawn[7], Gran Turismo Sport[8], and Uncharted 4[9] is a great deal. It's made even better when you consider...
