About this case
The plaintiffs allege that Sony raised the price of the PlayStation 5 by $50 in August 2025 while attributing the increase to U.S. tariffs, and that Sony could improperly benefit from tariff-relief funds while maintaining the higher prices. The class action remains at an early stage, and no court has ruled on liability or approved compensation.
