If you see a game or expansion pack you are interested in go on sale in the PlayStation Store, then you may be tempted in taking advantage of the deal.
Before doing so, however, we recommend that to check the price history of the product to see whether or not it was discounted to an even lower price before. This may indicate the price tag may fall even further in the future.
To see how you can check the pricing history of a digital game or DLC, you can check out this guide at Seeking Tech.
Can you check the PS Store price history on the PS4 or PS5?
Unfortunately, there is currently no way you can easily check the price history for a digital product on a PlayStation 4, PlayStation 4 Pro, PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 5 Digital Edition. Although you can use Internet Browser App on your PS4, inputting texts is a cumbersome process with a controller.
Instead, we recommend using a web browser app from a desktop, laptop, tablet or smartphone so that you can easily check the lowest price point for a game or DLC pack.
