Sony has announced a partnership with tech leasing service Raylo to introduce a PlayStation 5 rental program in the UK under its new Flex initiative. This program allows customers to lease PS5 consoles and accessories with no upfront costs, offering both a flexible monthly rolling plan and fixed-term options.
The rental plans vary in price depending on the duration, with the rolling monthly plan being the most expensive. However, customers can opt for 12, 24, or 36-month lease terms at lower rates.
Available Hardware and Starting Prices:
- PS5 Digital Edition with one controller – from £10.99/month
- PS5 Digital Edition with two controllers – from £13.49/month
- PS5 Slim – from £11.99/month
- PS5 Pro – from £18.95/month
- PS Portal – from £6.49/month
- PS VR2 – from £18.49/month
- DualSense Edge Wireless Controller – from £7.99/month
Full pricing details for each plan are available on Raylo’s website.
Sony has clarified on its support page that these are rental agreements, meaning customers do not own the consoles. At the end of the lease, options may include returning the device, upgrading to a newer model, or purchasing it—though this is subject to Raylo’s discretion and pricing at the time.
This initiative provides an alternative for gamers looking to access PlayStation hardware without committing to a full purchase, catering to those who prefer flexibility in their gaming setup.
