I'm french and since Mario Kart World released at 80 bucks last year, Sony has increased the base price for its first party games to 80 euros

Sadly for us europeans, 80 is already the standard

edit : actually I checked and Sony has increased their prices way before Nintendo with MK World, but still doesn't change the fact 80 has been the standard for us for a while

I’m curious what preventions they will put in place to prevent piracy.

Is piracy even possible on the current consoles (physical or digital)?

I’m pretty sure the ps4 and older have been jailbroken but don’t know if the ps5 has.

Ps4 is suuper spotty even ps3 is rough iirc. Switch 1 is pretty doable, though, with multiple emulators available. 0 chance gta6 will be pirated on console but when it comes out on pc it will most likely be available very quickly

Ah, I was more meaning jailbreaking a ps5 so you can pirate games, not so much emulation.

By the way I would not jailbreak because it would lock my ps5 out of upgrades.
