The Toronto Sun has confirmed that the Playstation 4 console is going to get a $50 price hike, due to “changes in the market environment” in the Canadian region.

A Sony representative confirmed that the price will go up from $399.99 to $449.99, and that the prices of accessories like the Dualshock 4 and the Playstation Camera will increase five dollars each. Games sold within the territory have already seen a price increase to $64.99, while some games like Infamous: Second Sun and MLB 14 The Show are going to retail with a whopping $69.99 price tag.


A 500 GB model Playstation 4 console still retails for $399.99 in the United States, and over one million units were sold within the first 24 hours of its launch between the USA and Canada. In total the console has sold over six million consoles since its debut in North America last year.
