Retailer Listing For PS4/Vita Bundle Appears
The long anticipated PS4/Vita bundle might be about to make an appearance. A listing for an “Ultimate Player Edition” points to a July 4 release in Europe.
Amazon France is carrying the listing includes a 500 GB PlayStation 4 and a Vita for €579.99 ($790). A standalone console carries a €399 ($543) price tag. The image carries a screenshot of Infamous: Second Son, but that could simply be a reference to the Vita’s remote play feature and not imply an included game.
We’ve reached out to Sony for comment. We’ll update should we receive a response.

Our Take
As far back as February 2013, we’ve speculated on Sony’s plans to bundle the PS4 and the Vita. With the remote play feature and the growing number of cross-play and cross-buy titles, it makes sense. An official package like this is just a matter of time.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
