How it compares in PlayStation 5
Across the 31 rated playstation 5 products we track, the typical score is 4.6 out of 5. This one sits at 4.2, which is in the bottom quarter of the category. That does not make it a bad buy, but there are better-rated alternatives on the same shelf, so it needs another reason to earn your money.
It carries 178 ratings against a category median of 1,118. That is a thin base by the standards of this category, so treat the score as provisional: a handful of extra reviews can still move it either way.
On price it sits in the upper third of a category running from £6.79 to £553, where the midpoint is about £39.99. Paying above the category norm needs a reason beyond the rating, because the score alone does not justify the gap here.
