Thank you to all our fans for your passionate support over the past 24 years, which made all of this possible.

As translucent colors are always a fan-favorite, this is a great opportunity to bring this color to the PlayStation 4 Pro system as a ‘thank you’ to our fans. To celebrate this exceptional milestone, we are announcing today a global release of the 500 Million Limited Edition PS4 Pro, featuring a translucent dark blue console shell and matching DualShock 4 wireless controller, PlayStation Camera, Vertical Stand and mono headset. This PS4 Pro also comes with a massive 2TB hard drive for you to store tons of games, apps, videos, screenshots and more. It will be available for $499.99 USD (MSRP) / $639.99 CAD (MSRP), and will be limited to 50,000 units worldwide.

In addition, each system will have a commemorative copper plate on its front, with its limited edition serial number etched on. And, for the very lucky few who can get them, we have a few ‘extra special’ hardware units with serial numbers that commemorate important events in the history of PlayStation. Keep your eyes peeled for these ‘extra special’ serial numbers like 09995 (U.S. Launch Date of the original PlayStation – September 9th, 1995), 01115 (U.S. launch date of PS4 – November 15, 2013) and 01013 (U.S. launch date of PS VR – October 13, 2016).

  • Where can I buy one in the US? The Website listed doesn’t offer much help! In the UK pre orders open on the 14th.

  • what are the listed retailers? I can’t find where to even buy this..

  • it doesn’t say which retailers. so like how am i supposed to get it.

  • Estoy interesado en adquirir la ps4 pro y justo anuncia esta super edición, gente, díganme por favor en que tiendas van a estar disponibles! Quiero el mio!

  • For everyone asking about pre-order and retailer links: August 24th.

  • The pre-orders for this in Australia have come and gone in an instant and there are already units up for resale on gumtree/ebay with a $1k markup.

    • can you send a link so we can verify your claim?

    • Got a response awaiting moderation probably because I posted a link but just look on gumtree au and search for PS4 limited edition there was like 3 on there last time I checked.

  • I looked on the ps.com site and didn’t see anywhere a list of retailers that would sell it! Does anyone else see it? Thanks!

  • It looks cool but 500?
    I just don’t got the cash to spend on this
    Plus I’m happy with my gold taco bell ps4 :)

  • There is a guy on YouTube saying that in the UK, you can pre-order them on 8/14 at 10a.m. He even lists several UK retailers that you can pre-order one on… (Amazon.co.uk, Game.co.uk, smythstoys.com, ShopTo.net, Curries PC World and Very.co.uk) I’m in the U.S. WHEN CAN I PRE=ORDER ONE? Nothing on Amazon yet. I’m shocked there isn’t more info about buying one! HELP!

  • “The limited edition PS4 Pro will be available on retailer websites starting August 24 – check out the PS.com page for the list of participating retailer websites in the U.S. and Canada.”
    I went to PS.com and there is no list of participating retailer websites in the U.S. All I want to do is pre-order one. I’d pay 1k to just pre-order one. Someone please tell me if there is any way to pre-order or reserve one.

  • You guys don’t list any retailers, but that’s cool. Just send it direct to my residence. Throw in the headset, too. Thanks, Sony.

  • This looks great! To all those that don’t like it, please tell all your friends not to buy one, that will increase my chances of getting one myself ;)

  • I don’t see a list of retailers or websites. Anybody having the same problem?

  • Will there be a pre-order for North America or what retailers are carrying this do I have to go in store or is it only website purchase?

    I really hope we could go wait in line at a store because when you order online websites tons of corruption goes through with all these bots and crap scalper hackers. I’m sick of ordering online goddamn scalpers suck!

  • Sony,
    What’s up, where are the list of retailers in the U.S.?
    I NEED this Pro in my bedroom ASAP…

  • Where is the retailer list?
    I need it asap

  • im pretty sure amazon right?

  • Already seeing these on eBay, it’s a bit annoying to see scalpers picking these things clean. Wonder how many actual fans will be able to get their hands on this before they do .):

  • Oh yea i gots to have that,this should be my last ps4 pro lol hopefully

  • 50k worldwide? Lame. How about 100k worldwide… at least. They are all going to end up on eBay for a million billion dollars. Another limited edition system most people will never get.

  • I can’t wait

  • great I love it, but if the demand is high enough, please release a version identical to this, just without the “limited edition) aspect, I’ve been waiting for these translucent cases to be released in u.s., and I understand you’re playing on the collector mentality, to push some corporate profit threshold due to a dip in the continuous units sold, but I want one… blue, translucent, (i care not for the limited edition aspect)
    anyway, I may have said some rather troubling things, but Sony… I love you, and I want you to be better than going down the “limited edition” route
    i wish you the best

  • This limited edition pre-order was a sham, the only sites offering the system were UK based which is obviously now all sold out at 7:56 AM here in Pennsylvania. Most of the UK systems will be resold at super high markups. Thanks Sony for making a celebration that should have included all of us a huge streaming pile…

  • idk get why they just dont release Preorder dates for each region !!!!!!

  • Yaassss! Managed to pre-order and pay for 2x of these consoles. 1x i will use (maybe sell as soon as next gen is out) and the other will remain sealed and added to my console collection.

    Also if there any South Africans wanna get hold of 1 pre orders are live on BT games store…

  • So it says “a list of retailers are available at PS.com” on the release they had, however when you click the hyperlink it just sends you to the other release talking more in depth about the 4K system without ever actually telling you where it will be released… and when it will be available specifically, like 6am EDT or something?

  • Sony this so dumb why cant you post anything that will let us know pre-order dateskr retailers list !!!!!!

  • I want one, pack it to carry!

  • It’s less then the jailbroken ones but im definatly getting this i’ma get an extra one to donate it to a charity

  • neeeeed!!!

  • Like the new look but I’m still a little confused. Your thanking me for buying your products by selling me another? Is this a Microsoft joke?

  • That’s a sweet looking machine, I want one

  • yes!!!!!!!! where can i buy one…..

  • $500 is a good deal, and those crying that it should be $400 are just cheap, lol…

  • It looks amazing I’m an big fan of how Sony puts a twist on how they make there products much love to Sony I will forever be an big fan of the company and the industry forever.

  • Wish I Had A PS4!!

  • All of that bling but still no 4k disk drive upgrade.

  • Can i please get one>.I don’t Have Playstation At All..Someone Donate to Me Jimmy Lumpford For A Playstation..Thank You Pass On..Thank’s Again..

  • That’s all very good. But when are we going to be able to change our displayed names?

  • LOOKS AWESOME really want one but sure can’t afford it but congrats on selling 500 million systems keep it up

  • Donate one just one ill tattoo sony rocks on my forehead while maybmaybe not there if i wanta keep my job lol but if u can at least thing about it :-)

  • I am confused can we pre order this or do we have to wait until August 24th to order this online or what. Like how can i get a guarantee one what do I have to look for?

  • This is worth buying with 2TB. Definitely! When is it available?

  • Awweeeyeaahh!!

  • this is good

  • What a waste of money why are they still making these things and with hard drives? at that price it should have like a terabyte SSD, or at least 500 gig SSD. Yeah they need to make then compatible to connect multiple internal or at least external ssds and to run them in RAID Mode. Or add m2 sockets for tiny M2 socket ssds

  • Can you clarify on the date? Looks as though they sold on Amazon UK. Will there be pre-orders before or on the 24th. Or will all consoles go ok sale on the 24th?

  • You can pick up a 2TB storage at Best Buy and convert..

  • It’s absolutely beautiful! I’d love to preorder one, but the only place i saw to do so was Amazon UK’s website, and I barely missed that oppourtunity. Should I watch the US website and be ready midnight on the 24th, or is there another place to watch for a preorder?

  • They didn’t show persona 5 in the trailer
