PS5 on Rent in Pune: Price, What is Included and How It Works
Share
A PlayStation 5 costs around Rs. 55,000 to buy, and that is before you add a second controller or a couple of games. If you want one for a weekend with friends, a birthday, or the school holidays, renting a PS5 in Pune gets you the same setup for a few hundred rupees.
Here is what a PS5 on rent in Pune actually costs right now, what comes in the box, which model and games to pick, and how booking works.
What does it cost to rent a PS5 in Pune?
These are live listings on Rentux at the time of writing:
| Item | 1 Day | 1 Week | 1 Month |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sony PS5 in Pune (1 controller + 2 games) | Rs. 800 | Rs. 2,000 | Rs. 3,800 |
| Sony PS5 bundle (1 controller + 2 games) | Rs. 700 | Rs. 2,650 | Rs. 5,500 |
| Extra PS5 controller | Rs. 250 | Rs. 850 | Rs. 1,500 |
| Extra game (Spider-Man 2, God of War Ragnarok, GTA V and more) | Rs. 50 | Rs. 200 | Rs. 500 |
| Sony PS4 in Pune (the cheaper older sibling) | Rs. 600 | Rs. 1,500 | Rs. 2,500 |
For a weekend, most people spend Rs. 800 to Rs. 1,100 in total: the console plus an extra controller or an extra game. A full month costs less than 7% of the console's purchase price.
Rent vs buy: the honest math
| Rent for a weekend | Rent for a month | Buy new | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Console | Rs. 800-1,600 | Rs. 3,800 | ~Rs. 55,000 |
| Extra controller | Rs. 250 | Rs. 1,500 | ~Rs. 5,500 |
| 2 games | Included / Rs. 100 | Included / Rs. 400 | Rs. 3,000-5,000 each |
| Total | ~Rs. 1,100 | ~Rs. 5,300 | ~Rs. 70,000 |
Renting for a month costs about what a single new game costs. Buying only pulls ahead if you play several nights a week, all year. For bursts - holidays, parties, one big release - renting is not even close.
What comes with the console
- The PS5 console with all cables, ready to plug into your TV.
- One DualSense wireless controller.
- Any two games from the library - big titles like God of War Ragnarok and Spider-Man 2 are usually available.
More players or more games? Add an extra controller and extra titles when you send your enquiry. You can browse everything on the games on rent in Pune page.
PS5 or PS4?
The PS5 loads faster, looks sharper and plays the latest titles. If your group just wants FIFA nights and the classics, the PS4 at Rs. 600 a day does the job for less. Either way, most PS4 games also run on the PS5, so the game library is shared.
Which games should you pick?
Titles renters ask for most, and who they suit:
- EA FC (FIFA): the default for groups. Easy to pick up, works for 2-4 players taking turns.
- God of War Ragnarok: the best single-player story on the console. Pick this if you have a week alone with the TV.
- Spider-Man 2: shows off what the PS5 can do. Good for a weekend.
- GTA V: still the most rented game we list. Endless, suits everyone.
- Mortal Kombat / Tekken / WWE: for head-to-head nights with friends.
If you are not sure, name the occasion in your enquiry and the vendor will suggest a pair that fits.
How renting a PS5 on Rentux works
Rentux is a listing platform, so it works a little differently from a normal online store:
- Browse the gaming consoles on rent in Pune and pick your console.
- Place a booking or send an enquiry on WhatsApp. This records your requirement and shares it with the vendor network - it is not a confirmed order yet.
- A vendor confirms availability, price and delivery timing with you directly.
- You complete a one-time ID and address registration.
- The console is delivered to you, or you pick it up from a partner store.
Before you book, read the damage policy so you know exactly what happens if something breaks.
Common questions
Do I pay a deposit?
Terms vary by vendor and are confirmed to you before anything is finalized. The one-time ID and address registration is standard across all vendors on the platform.
How fast can I get one?
Same-day or next-day delivery is common in Pune, but weekends and long weekends book out. If you need the console for a specific date, send your enquiry 2-3 days ahead.
What if a controller or disc stops working?
Tell the vendor straight away. Normal wear is expected; the damage policy explains how anything beyond that is handled.
Can I extend my rental?
Usually yes, as long as the console is not booked by someone else after you. Message the vendor before your return date.
Is my TV compatible?
Any TV with an HDMI port works. The PS5 shines on a 4K TV, but it runs fine on a regular HD TV or even a monitor with HDMI.
PS5 Disc, Digital or Slim - does it matter when renting?
You will see three versions of the console when you shop around. For a rental, the differences are small but worth knowing:
- PS5 Disc edition: plays both discs and downloaded games. This is what most vendors stock, because disc games are the easiest to swap between renters. If you want physical games from the library, this is the one.
- PS5 Digital edition: no disc drive, so games come pre-downloaded. Fine if you know exactly which titles you want before the console arrives.
- PS5 Slim: the same performance in a smaller body. Nothing about the games changes.
When you enquire, just ask which edition is available for your dates. Performance in-game is identical across all three.
Tips from regular renters
- Book early for long weekends. Diwali, New Year and IPL final weekends are the busiest - consoles go 4-5 days out.
- Check your HDMI cable and TV port before the console arrives so your first evening is not spent troubleshooting.
- Test everything on day one. Controllers, discs, downloads. If anything is off, tell the vendor immediately, not on return day.
- Take a photo of the setup when it arrives - cables, accessories, condition. It keeps the return simple for both sides.
- Ask about bundles. Console + extra controller + 3-4 games often prices better than picking items one by one.
When does renting a PS5 make sense?
- Weekends and house parties. Two days of FIFA and Mortal Kombat with friends should not cost Rs. 55,000.
- School and college holidays. A month of gaming for Rs. 3,800 beats buying a console that gathers dust in May.
- Trying before buying. Live with a PS5 for a week before you commit to one.
- One game you just want to finish. Rent the console and the title, finish the story, return both.
