Christmas is coming early to consumers who want to upgrade their gaming device to the PlayStation 4. Sony now offers a PS4 bundle with a free digital game as a treat for its loyal fans.
Sony offers the PS4 console with a free game. The selection is limited to "Destiny," "NBA 2K15," "Far Cry 4," and "LittleBigPlanet 3" as part of the company's "Four Games, One Pick" promo. Those who purchase the console from a retailer will be given an informational code that they need to enter in the PlayStation website.
Gamers can purchase the console from different retailers in the U.S. as it is not offered in other countries. The end date of the promo is still unspecified, but many guess that it will last until Christmas. The bundle costs $400 inclusive of the digital game, thus exchange of the game is not allowed.
The promo is similar to Microsoft's offer back in September when Xbox One consoles were sold with a free game for $400. The promo spiked the sales of Xbox One and reports state that it has overtaken the sales of its rival from Sony.
PlayStation 4 is one of the most wanted gaming devices and a lot of new game titles are being built maximizing every feature of the console.
Meanwhile, PlayStation marked its 20th year by releasing a limited edition retro-style PS4 that was sold out in minutes after its release. The device sports the original gray color of the first PlayStation console complete with the original logo. The limited edition of the console comes with DualShock 4, PlayStation Camera, and vertical stand. The nostalgic appearance of the console attracted a lot of gamers.
Sony sold the device, which is now out-of-stock, for $499 in Sony's website. Due to the overwhelming demand, the PS4 limited edition appeared in eBay with bidding value as high as $22,500.
