The PlayStation Store Keeps Listing Games for £10,000

Multiple users are reporting that the PlayStation Store is listing certain games at a £10,000 price point (or even 10,000 of the local currency outside the UK). Currently, the pricing glitch appears to be affecting GreedFall, which is part of this month's PS Plus line-up. The issue was first reported to IGN by Twitter user Andreas K.: On Twitter, The Emerald Archer and Christopher Khan have also reported a £10,000 version of Greedfall, while the issue has also been spotted in European regions, with the pricing swapped for Euros. It's not clear at time of writing what is causing the glitch, nor how widespread it is, but screenshots posted seem to point to it being an issue on the PS4 version of the store in particular - we've been unable to replicate the issue on PS5 or browsers. The pricing glitch has seemingly been appearing since at least the end of last year. Raymond Chan in the IGN UK Podcast Facebook group spotted Dead Cells listed at £10,000, while Garyz on Twitter has seen Friday The 13th at the same price. We've contacted Sony for comment.

However, Sony Interactive Entertainment CEO Jim Ryan has made clear that it will continue to support PS4 with games until at least 2022. If you picked up a PS5 recently, we've got tips on the PS5 hidden features and settings, and a guide on how best to transfer data from your PS4 to your new console.
