Also, PC gamers are generally way more willing to go "meh" and wait for price drop.

Steam has the same sales provision as PlayStation, Nintendo or Xbox Store. There are no additional license fees on consoles.

30% for Playstation, but Microsoft has some very indie friendly policies- at flat $3,000. So they SHOULD be the cheapest venue, though I believe those savings get translated into their gamespass.

Competition.
If you buy a game for Playstation there is only 1 market. If you go find a physical disc somewhere on sale then you'll get it for that price... but on PC you've got a dozen popular marketplaces and ebay steam keys and humble bundle and Fanatic.
Usually you can get a new release for $40 or less within' a month or two of launch if you do you're diligent.

There ARE marketplace fees. 30% for Steam, 20% for GoG, 30% for Epic unless it uses the Unreal Engine then there's a slight discount.

Yes, this is some companies following suit with Sony. Like I said, we are going to see the 70$ become the default pricing as Microsoft adopts this standard as well.

i have seen some pc games priced at $70. So im not too sure its the "service" setting the prices. MW2 for example is $70 for all systems

But Sony tries having the "we are for the gamers" personality lmfao

It is the price Sony decided on their PS5, nothing else. Sony takes just as much as Steam, as does Microsoft on Xbox. I believe Microsoft will be following Sony in the new pricing, which means we will probably see price increases on Steam.
You can see it on Horizon Forbidden West. The PS4 version was $10 cheaper than the PS5 version - 60 compared to 70.

Top 5 games of all time, and while I can’t remember why, I’ll defend that deceleration with my life.
