New reports are claiming that Sony is creating the perfect bundle for gamers this holiday season. According to VG 24/7 Sony Computer Entertainment has plans to release a hardware bundle containing the PlayStation 4 as well as PlayStation Vita in time for the upcoming holiday season. Inside Gaming Daily also reports these claims regarding the PS4 bundle being released by the end of 2013, they also report that an anonymous source claims the bundle will be sold at an asking price of $500.00.

Currently, the PS Vita retails for $249.99 in North America. And obviously we do not yet know what the PS 4 will be sold for but if these rumors are to be believed the bundle will offer consumers a real saving when compared to buying the two devices separately. Consider the current price of the Vista, if a gamer was to purchase the portable device and then later purchase the PS4 it would probably cost them about $650.

Sony is really pushing the purchasing of the bundle, while also insisting on the connectivity between PS Vita and PS4. The PS Vita can play all PS4 titles through its "Remote Play" option. Sony also stated that Vita could also be used as a secondary screen for select games, for example, users can use the Vita to display maps or for inventory management.

Other reports have suggested that Sony originally intended to release the PS 4 bundle with the system's re-designed camera. However, the plans for the new PS 4 camera have now allegedly been scrapped due to Sony's attempt to keep the system price low. iDigitial Times thinks that Sony may introduce a PlayStation 4 bundle featuring the new PlayStation camera on/after the PS4 release date.

And while it is still unknown when exactly Sony will announce the release date of the PS 4 and PS Vita bundle, it could be at the Sony event at Gamescom on August 20.
