If you're looking to upgrade to a new console and save some money at the same time, and make the most of an older PlayStation console you might have lying around, you won't want to miss PlayStation Direct's exclusive trade-in offer.

With PlayStation's Back Market, you can save up to $150 / £150 when you trade in your PS4 for a PS5 or PS5 Pro. You can make the most of this in the UK via that region's direct link and page too.

All you have to do is get your PS4 valued, ship in your device for free, and get the money back for your PS4 trade-in. If your console is in good condition, you can get up to $100 / £100, as well as receive a $50 / £50 voucher towards a PS5 or PS5 Pro purchase.

This means you'll save $150 (£150) in total with PlayStation Direct's offer.

Today's best PS5 trade-in offers

PlayStation PS5 Pro
PlayStation PS5 Pro: was $699.99 now $549.99 at PlayStation Direct US

The PS5 Pro is the best version of the PS5 you can buy right now. With its all-new performance capabilities and PSSR technology, this console is your best bet.

UK Price: £549.99 with maximum trade-in offer

PlayStation PS5 Slim
PlayStation PS5 Slim: was $499.99 now $299.99 at PlayStation Direct US

Although almost five years old, the PS5 is still a brilliant console if you're looking for the cheapest option.

UK Price: £329.99 with maximum trade-in offer

PlayStation PS5 Digital Edition
PlayStation PS5 Digital Edition: was $449.99 now $299.99 at PlayStation Direct US

The PS5 Digital Edition is a lot like the PS5, it's on the cheaper side, but won't offer the console's 4K Blu-ray player.

UK Price: £239.99 with maximum trade-in offer

The PS5 Pro boasts all-new improvements to the original PS5, offering enhanced visuals and performance thanks to Sony's new Playstation Spectral Super Resolution (PSSR) AI-upscaling technology.

If you're not too fussed on super enhanced graphics and performanced, the PS5 Slim is still a great alternative. Even today, the console offers a brilliant current-gen gaming experience, is backwards compatible with a ton of PS4 titles, and is generally a good choice if you're a fan of physical media.

Then there's the PS5 Digital Edition, which has all the same components as the Slim, although it doesn't feature the handy disk drive, meaning you won't be able to utilize the physical media you already own.

If you're still unsure about which console to buy, check out our PS5 vs PS5 Digital Edition and PS5 vs PS5 Pro comparison guides.
