If you’re in the US and buy a PlayStation 5 console between now and October 20, 2023, you will be entitled to a free PS5 digital game of your choosing. This brand-new deal is eligible for any who will buy or have bought the console since September 20. This could be a great offer for anyone who is picking up a PS5 in the near future (or before Spider-Man 2 exclusively launches on the console), and well worth keeping an eye on.

    Let’s say I’ve got a friend who bought a PS5 back in March, and this friend decided that she wanted to take part in this giveaway.

    What are the pros and cons of this friend purchasing a new PS5, getting her free game (possibly Ghosts of Tsushima), and then returning the PS5 afterward? Because this sounds like a savings of $70 or so once it’s all done…for my friend.

      If this is tied to your PSN there is a good chance it won’t work even if you register a new console. They’ll see you already had a PS5.

      $70 sounds like a lot but probably not worth the potential headache.
