PS5 Details Coming Next Week
The Sony Computer Company has finally issued updates on the PlayStation 5, which follows after a public outcry not to release information for security purposes. It’s now known that full details on the PS5 will be issued by June 4th at 4 PM Eastern Central Time. Sony confirmed that their showcase is 60+ minutes, providing insight into their new console & genuine gameplay with unannounced exclusive titles. It’s needless to say that June 4th will be a formidable day in the gaming industries history.
An official release date regarding this console is expected to be announced on June 4th. It’s known that the PlayStation 5 is arriving during the 2020 Holiday Season, with its respective price slated to be drastically expensive. This would fall in-line with the initial costs associated with the PS3 when 1st released. Paying this high cost will award gamers with a console more powerful than the standard gaming computer, it’ll enable for unimaginable games of incredible size to be witnessed and support backwards compatibility with the PlayStation 4.
Jim Ryan, the Chief Executive Officer of PlayStation America, has provided his thoughts on what the PS5 will mean to gamers worldwide. Jim clarified that the PlayStation 5 would represent innovation in the best way possible, creating a franchise that has already been internally established. The CEO mentioned that the potential for their upcoming hardware exceeds anything they’ve accomplished before, with multiple updates to its software operating system already being developed. Through these enhancements, Ryan noted that new methods of accessing thousands of games would become possible. This indicates that backwards compatibility will extend beyond the PS4, reaching the PlayStation3 and PlayStation2. The initial PlayStation cannot be ported over because of its severely old architecture from the late 1990s.
Xbox Makes a Big Mistake
The excitement surrounding this upcoming June 4th announcement for PlayStation has swept over the internet. Sony hasn’t issued information regarding their next console, taking an entirely different approach to their main competitors. Microsoft release the Specifications, Launch Games, and Backwards Compatibility List for the Xbox Series X at separate times. Because of their foolish marketing, it’s expected that their announcement stream will garner minimal attention.
