PlayStation fans have been organising a financial boycott of Sony's hardware and services, encouraging players to withhold spending on the platform until 30 August. Amid this action, Sony has announced that its new Pulse Elevate speakers will become available to pre-order from 1 September, a timing that has drawn attention given the ongoing boycott calls.

The Pulse Elevate speakers form part of Sony's growing range of PlayStation-branded audio accessories, following products such as the Pulse Elite headset and Pulse Explore earbuds. Details on pricing and full specifications were not included in the available article text, though the pre-order date falls just a day after the boycott's stated end date of 30 August.
