After announcing a slimmer model PlayStation 5 (PS5) last October, Sony has now confirmed that the new console revision will be launched locally on Feb 20.
Customers can now pre-order the new PS5 models, with options for the base digital-only console priced at RM2,069, and the one including a Blu-ray disc drive priced at RM2,499.
There are also bundles available that include two wireless DualSense controllers for both the digital (RM2,369) and Blu-ray drive equipped (RM2,799) options.
The console revision features a 30% reduction in chassis size from the original model and a larger 1TB (vs 825GB) internal storage drive, with an option to add on a Blu-ray disc drive to the base digital-only model.
The addition will require the purchase of an RM529 Blu-ray disc drive from the company, putting the overall costs higher than the bundle, though the add-on does not appear to be available on the Sony website as of publication.
Another accessory not on the website as of yet is the redesigned vertical stand, which is no longer included with console purchases.
The company previously confirmed that the stand would be priced at RM149 in Malaysia.
It is currently unclear when both accessories will be available in Malaysia.
