Poll: Would You Pay $1,000 for a PS6?

Reports suggest Sony could face production costs of nearly $1,000 for each PS6 because component prices are rising, potentially pushing the console’s retail price even higher. The article asks whether players would pay that much, arguing the prospect highlights concerns that gaming is becoming unaffordable.

The article notes that PS5 prices have risen during this generation, while Sony has also sold costly accessories and software; it says buyers’ willingness to pay would depend on factors such as games, hardware features and backwards compatibility.
