PS5 on Rent in Mumbai: Prices, Delivery and What You Get

Mumbai flats are small, weekends are short and a PS5 costs close to Rs. 70,000. That is why more people here rent one for a weekend, a week or a month instead of buying. If you are in Mumbai and thinking about it, this guide covers what a PS5 on rent costs, what comes in the box, how delivery works and when renting stops making sense.

PS5 on rent in Mumbai: current prices

Rentux lists the PS5 in Mumbai in two bundles. Both come with games, so you can start playing the day it arrives.

There is also a standard PS5 listing with Mumbai pricing that starts lower, at Rs. 700 a day. Prices can change, and the product page always has the latest numbers.

What the numbers mean in practice

The per-day rate drops as you rent longer. A single day at Rs. 850 is fine for a Saturday with friends. A week at Rs. 3,000 works out to about Rs. 430 a day. The monthly rate of Rs. 7,550 is about Rs. 250 a day. If you already know you will play for more than four or five days, go for the weekly plan rather than extending day by day.

The two-controller bundle costs about Rs. 140 more for a day, and Rs. 600 more for a week. Choose it if you play FIFA, Mortal Kombat, Tekken or any local co-op game with a partner or friend. If you only play alone, the single-controller bundle is enough.

What is usually in the box

  • PS5 console (check the listing for disc or digital)
  • One or two DualSense controllers, as per the bundle
  • Power cable and HDMI cable
  • Two games pre-selected for the bundle

You need your own TV or monitor with an HDMI port. A 4K TV gives the best picture, but the console works on any HDMI screen.

Adding extra games and controllers

Games are rented separately and cost Rs. 50 a day, Rs. 200 a week or Rs. 500 a month. Popular titles include Marvel's Spider-Man 2, God of War Ragnarok and Horizon Forbidden West. If your friends turn up and you only have one controller, you can add an extra PS5 controller for Rs. 250 a day.

For a longer story-driven game, rent the game by the week. For a party where everyone takes a turn, one day of games is enough.

Is it worth renting a PS5 in Mumbai?

Do the simple maths. A new PS5 costs around Rs. 70,000. A monthly rental at Rs. 7,550 means you would need to rent for more than nine months before you spent as much as buying. Most people do not play that long on one game catalogue, and a rented console does not need a place in your flat when you are done.

Renting makes sense if:

  • You want to try a PS5 before you buy one.
  • You are playing one big game, like God of War Ragnarok, and will finish it in a few weeks.
  • You are hosting a weekend, a birthday or a match night.
  • You are in Mumbai for a few months for work or studies and will not carry a console back.

Buying makes sense if you play every day for a year or more. In that case you will recover the Rs. 70,000 and keep the console.

Delivery and pickup in Mumbai

After you send an enquiry, the Rentux team calls you to confirm the dates and the delivery address. No advance payment is needed to enquire. Mumbai is large, so tell us your area early. Delivery from the south of the city to the suburbs does not take the same time, and your slot will depend on where the console is coming from.

Test the console when it arrives. Plug it in, check the controller, start a game and make sure the picture and sound work before the delivery person leaves.

Which games to start with

If you rent for a weekend, pick games that are easy to pick up and fun for a group. Sports titles and arcade racers work well when friends come over. If you are renting for a week or more and play alone, choose something with a long story. God of War Ragnarok and Horizon Forbidden West each take well over 30 hours, so a weekly rental at Rs. 200 per game is cheaper than a week of cinema tickets.

Ask what the two bundled games are before you book. If you already own one of them, you can add a different game for Rs. 50 a day.

Setting up in a small Mumbai flat

Most flats here have one TV in the living room, and it is often wall-mounted with limited ports. Before the console arrives, check that a free HDMI port is easy to reach. If the TV is high on the wall, keep the console on a table below it with a few centimetres of space on all sides, because the PS5 gets warm and needs airflow. Keep it out of closed cabinets.

Wi-Fi matters more than people think. Your first session will include a system update and possibly a game update, so connect to a strong network or use a LAN cable. If your broadband is slow, start the downloads the night before the weekend session so you are not watching a progress bar while your friends wait.

Tips for first-time renters

  1. Book a few days ahead for weekends. Fridays and Saturdays, plus any match night, fill up first.
  2. Check your TV input. Make sure the HDMI port works and your TV supports 60 Hz.
  3. Ask about the disc drive. The included games are for your use. If you want to bring your own discs, confirm the console has a drive.
  4. Do not sign in with your main account without a plan. Create a fresh account for the rental, or remove yours before returning the console.
  5. Plan the return. Agree the pickup time when you book, and set a reminder so the console is packed and ready.

Quick answers

Can I rent a PS5 in Mumbai for one day? Yes. The one-day rate is Rs. 850 on the standard Mumbai bundle, though weekly plans cost far less per day.

Do I pay before delivery? You send an enquiry first. The team calls to confirm the details and explain payment, so there is no commitment from the enquiry itself.

Which bundle should I pick? One controller for solo play. Two controllers if you play with someone else.

Can I extend my rental? Usually yes, if the console is not booked after you. Ask early rather than on the return day.
