On twitter, The emerald archer and Christopher Khan also reported a £ 10,000 version of GreedFall, while the problem also was seen in European regions, with prices exchanged for euros.
It is not clear at the time of writing what is causing the failure, nor how widespread it is, but the screenshots posted seem to point to this being a problem in the PS4 version of the particular store – we were unable to replicate the problem on PS5 or browsers.
The price gap appears to have been appearing since at least the end of last year. On December 27, Raymond Chan on the IGN UK Podcast on Facebook spotted Dead Cells listed at £ 10,000, while Garyz on Twitter saw Friday the 13th at the same price Last week. We contacted Sony for comment.
In other PS4 news, Sony Japan today announced that it will discontinue all PS4 Pro models, and all but one PS4 Slim model, in order to manufacture more PS5s. However, Sony Interactive Entertainment CEO Jim Ryan has made it clear that he will continue to support the PS4 with games until at least 2022.
