From today, the 500GB model will now cost $349.99 across Europe and £299.99 in the UK. Additionally, the console will drop to $479.99 in Australia, $569.95 in New Zealand, and AED 1399 in the United Arab Emirates.

Sony doesn’t have some of the popular games like Halo 5 or Rise of the Tomb Raider yet, but it does have a broad, extensive library including Bloodborne, Until Dawn and Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection.
