A Swedish retailer has listed the upcoming PlayStation 5 on its website for pre-order and customers are describing the listed price as "eye-watering" and a "heart attack".
Swedish customers can pre-order the newest PlayStation model from Media Markt for 9999 Swedish Krona, or about NZ$1580.
This price is a lot higher than the price of any gaming console ever.

Sony has a history of expensive pre-order prices on its consoles. In 2007, the PlayStation 3 made headlines because of its expensive launch price, retailing in New Zealand for NZ$1200 for the 60GB model.
