Sony has confirmed the heavily rumoured PlayStation 5 slim, which is due out for this holiday season.

Sony's new slimmed-down PS5 model has been "reduced in volume by more than 30%, and weight by 18% and 24% compared to the previous models," according to the company. The notoriously tall PS5 is now slightly shorter by 33 mm (1.25 inches), and slightly narrower, by 44 mm (1.73 inches). In terms of weight, the revised standard PS5 model is losing 1.3 kg (about 3 pounds).

The smaller PS5 design comes with 1TB storage for the PS5 and PS5 Digital Edition, up from 825GB in the original versions of the console, and the new model provides the option to add an Ultra HD Blu-ray Disc Drive to PS5 Digital Edition.

The latest PS5 model will be available to shop in the U.S. this November at select retailers on Sony's webstore. The slim PS5 with a disc drive will still cost $499.99. The PS5 digital edition retails at $449.99, a $50 increase from the original digital edition.
