Sony bumps up prices of PlayStation 4 in Canada

If you thought you’d get a better deal by waiting to get your Sony PlayStation 4, then you’re in for bitter surprise. Sony will increase the price of the console by $50 to $449.99. Sony told the Financial Post that the price hike is due to “changes in the market environment.” No specifics were mentioned but speculation is due to the weakening Canadian Dollar.

Sony is also bumping up the prices of some accessories and games. The Dualshock 4 controller and PlayStation Camera are going to be bumped up to $64.99 from $59.99. And the games MLB The Show ’14 and Infamous: Second Son will sell for $69.99 instead of $59.99.
