Worse but, the bundle solely features a voucher for the digital model of Horizon Forbidden West. This is smart after all for the PS5 Digital bundle, however that it’s additionally included within the PS5 Disc bundle is an odd alternative, to say the least.
If you’re nonetheless trying for the bundle, you’ll must register for the chance to purchase it from PS5 Direct and almost definitely stand in a queue when it turns into accessible, hoping that it gained’t be bought out by the point your flip comes round. Getting invited to the PlayStation Direct retailer doesn’t assure that you just’ll get the bundle, or the standalone PS5 console for that matter.
