The first photos of PS5 ‘slim’ in the wild have emerged

The first photos of the new ‘slim’ version of the PlayStation 5 in the wild have emerged.

Twitter user @phantompainss shared photos on Twitter, stating that they managed to buy one at their military base exchange.

They proceeded to post 10 photos of the console’s packaging – showing that they bought the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III bundle – including a photo of the small plastic stand that’s used to display the console horizontally.

Earlier today Call of Duty account CharlieIntel reported that the Modern Warfare 3 console bundle will be released on November 10, priced at $499.99, the same price as the standalone console’s RRP. This essentially means the game will be bundled with the console at no extra cost.

Sony’s new PlayStation 5 model will launch this November in the US before rolling out elsewhere over the following months. The new model will come with 1TB storage for both editions.

Unlike the current model, those who purchase the PS5 Digital Edition will be able to add a Blu-ray disc drive later, as it will also be sold separately for $79.99 / €119.99 / £99.99.

A horizontal stand will be included with the new PS5 model. A new Vertical Stand compatible with all PS5 models will be also sold separately for $29.99 / €29.99 / £24.99.

Once inventory of the current PS5 model has sold out, the new model will become the only one available.
