Standalone white PS4 available in UK later this week
Sony confirmed today that UK buyers can purchase a white PS4 standalone starting this Friday, October 17. Sony Computer Entertainment Europe told VideoGamer this morning that an Amazon UK listing for the game-less, snowy white system was accurate. The retailer currently has the white PS4 listed at the nice, round figure of £351.86. Earlier this year, Sony said the "Glacier White" PS4 would be available separately in Europe at a recommended retail price of 399 euros. [Update: Sony confirmed to Eurogamer the recommended retail price is £349]
Driveclub bundle fills passenger seat with white PS4 in Europe
When European racers start burning rubber on Driveclub's streets on October 8, PS4-less fans will face one of the most timeless questions in all of tech upgrades: white or black? The PlayStation Blog has detailed console bundles for either shade, though what's under the cardboard hood of each box differs a bit. Those enamored with the Glacier White PS4 can steer a matching controller in a bundled copy of Driveclub for €439.99. The Glacier White bundle will appear in France, Germany, the UK, Greece, Israel, Portugal, Norway, Spain, Hungary, the Czech Republic, the Netherlands, Cyprus, Belgium and Luxembourg. Drivers after the standard shade of PS4 can pick up the Gamer Edition bundle, which offers a black PS4, two DualShock 4 controllers, a PlayStation camera and a copy of Driveclub for €499.99. Oddly enough, the Gamer Edition will be a bit more rare than the Glacier White bundle, with sales planned for the UK, Ireland, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, the Netherlands, Luxembourg and Belgium. If this the "Driveclub bundle" concept sounds familiar, a basic, European-only package announced in July will offer a black PS4 and Driveclub for €440. None of these bundles have been confirmed for the States yet, but you can always learn more about Driveclub via our extensive video preview, regardless of which market you're in. [Image: PlayStation]
