Sony Japan Limits PS5 Pro Lottery to 60-Hour Players
Original: Sony Japan’s PS5 Pro Lottery Requires 60 Hours of Playtime
Sony Japan is holding a lottery to buy the PS5 Pro, but only existing PlayStation owners with at least 60 hours of playtime on their account are eligible to enter. The requirement is aimed at giving the upgrade to active players rather than resellers, and it has sparked debate about fairness and how Sony measures genuine usage.
Why now: The unusual playtime requirement for buying a console is a novel anti-scalper move that people find surprising and controversial.
Rank over time, top of the chart is #1. 8 snapshots from 9 h ago to 11 min ago.
