The long-awaited PlayStation 3 will finally go on sale across Europe on 23 March, and will cost 499 euros (£335) for the 20GB version, 599 euros (£400) for the 60GB version
The electronics giant has said that only the 60GB version of the console will be available at launch, with the 20GB model to follow later.
The next-generation console is already available in Japan and the US, where it went on sale in November last year.
The European launch was postponed after problems mass producing parts for the console's Blu-ray disc drive.
When it is released, the successor to the best-selling PlayStation 2 will compete with Microsoft's Xbox 360 and Nintendo's Wii, both of which are already on sale.
Buying a PS3 also gives owners free access to the online PlayStation Network where they can meet and take on other gamers.
For the European launch, Sony has said that more than 30 titles will be available including The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, Motorstorm and Resistance: Fall of Man. Other titles such as Lemmings will be available over the PlayStation Network.
