The PS5 Slim Astro Bot console bundles have surged in popularity following Microsoft’s decision to increase the prices of Xbox consoles. While Sony has yet to announce a price increase for the PlayStation 5 in the US, it seems like a distinct possibility in response to tariffs. Sony raised select PS5 hardware prices in several regions last month, including the UK, following a price increase in Japan last year. If you’re interested in picking up a PS5, now would be a smart time to buy one in the US.

Even without the looming potential price increase, the PS5 Slim and PS5 Slim Digital console bundles are definitely worth considering while they are still available. These bundles are priced $50 lower than the console on its own, and you get a copy of one of the best PS5 exclusives. You’re essentially saving $110 versus buying the console and Astro Bot ($60) separately.
The Astro Bot PS5 bundles released in March. Up until last week, you could find both models at all major retailers. As of May 5, however, the story is much different. Both bundles are available at Walmart and PlayStation Direct, but they are sold out at Amazon, Target, and Best Buy. We wouldn’t be surprised to see Walmart join the other major retailers in being sold out of both PS5 bundles in the coming days.
