Possible leaked PlayStation 5 price would set new high mark, but it's likely not real

Video game enthusiasts may have felt a tremor in their wallets when a potential price for the upcoming PlayStation 5 console showed up online Wednesday. Spotted on the site hotukdeals.com U.K. listing for a PS5 system with 2 Terabyte hard drive priced at £599 (about $765). Sony has said the PS5 would arrive this holiday season – it's in a race and battle for mind and market share with Microsoft, which is also launching its Xbox Series X during the same time period. At Forbes.com, contributor Dave Thier quickly suggested that he "would not take this placeholder price all that seriously," expecting that even a $599 PS5 would be "a huge problem for Sony, especially if Microsoft comes in at $499."
