Sony’s PS5 digital and normal editions are now available. The PS5 digital is available for $499 and the regular version with a disc drive costs $629.

You’re able to buy the next-gen console from retailers like Best Buy, Walmart, The Source, Amazon Canada and London Drugs. That said, stock is limited and both PlayStation 5 models are selling in a matter of minutes. Keep tabs on MobileSyrup to see when the console is back in stock.

This isn’t the only Toronto-themed next-gen console marketing we’ve seen this week. On Tuesday, Xbox had a 40-foot-tall (about 12 metres) Xbox Series X floating on the city’s harbourfront.
