PS5 Release Date NEWS: Sony PlayStation shock admission before the next generation

PS5 News – Sony learns mistakes

As any fan of Sony PlayStation knows and remembers, the transition between PS2 and PS3 was one of the most difficult times for the console giants.

But a delayed launch and an exorbitant price the PlayStation 3 took a step back and gave Microsoft the advantage with their launch of Xbox 360.

Shuhei Yoshida, of Sony Interactive Entertainment Worldwide Studios, it's maintained with Eurogamer at Develop in Brighton. promised that future PlayStation consoles would no longer make the same mistakes.

"Ken [Kutaragi] was a great engineer – the team that worked for Ken was so motivated, he was a great source of motivation, that he used video games as a springboard to realize his vision. and his dreams – he wanted to become the next Intel or something.He always tackled the development of gaming systems, up to the PS3 – they are working on a system on their own, "said Yoshida.

"And we did not have access until it was done." He trusted the developers – whatever he did, the best developers would be able to work on it and understand it. did not see the need to involve game developers in the design of the system – that's how the PS3 was made. "

" It's human nature Yoshida adds, "People make mistakes, I do not know why, we're all human – we PS4 is doing so well, but we do not forget why we are here now. "

The suggestion, perhaps, is that by not including the developers in the process of building the new machine, this has created more work for those but as we l & # 39; 39, learned Digital Foundry, Mark Cerny, who was once the PS4's chief architect, was again "talking to the developers about their needs for the next PlayStation." [19659007] Sony does not seem to be reliving the same mistakes that they have made in the past.

Introduction – The Sony PS5 is a real and fast approach, that we know for sure, forever changing like the sands of time and until that We will know the exact details of the next move of the gaming giant.

But what is clear, is that in the last three or four months, the discussions of the Industry around the PlayStation 5 (as well as Xbox Scarlett) have become unprecedented. This is indicative of rumors that the PS5 development kits were out in the wild, but this suggests that we are now nearing a critical point in the PS4's life cycle.

with a canon charge of excellent PS4 exclusives yet to come, the console begins to slow down (very) slowly.

E3 2018 has failed to yield any kind of announcement on the Sony PS5 console, but we could imagine that they will not be able to avoid it. 39, next year to E3 2019.

As such, we expect that information, leaks, specifications and even "will start coming thick and fast in the next 12 months

For the moment, however, we have details, predictions and industry analyzes that you can review, and we will update them every week.

All this and well still others are under the gallery, for those who wonder Concept images of the French designer Joseph Dumary

PS5 Release Date – When will the PlayStation 5 arrive?

This is probably one of the most important questions asked by console owners, but also in fact, r We know very well that Sony is developing a new PS5 console, as confirmed Shawn Layden, who is, for those who do not know, president and CEO of Sony Interactive Entertainment America (SIEA) as well as President of SIE Worldwide Studios.

Layden confirmed in an interview during the E3 2017 that the PS5 arrives, but the console too "will probably be sometime"

And more recently PlayStation CEO John Kodera told investors that the PS4 "was entering the final phase of its life cycle" after five years of play.

That's why we think that an announcement will probably arrive at E3 2019, with a view to the release of PS5 by Sony in 2020.

PS5 Release Date – Why 2020?

Overall, 2020 appears to be the accepted date that most industry experts and analysts believe that Sony will launch a new console.

In addition, the source and prediction that we are inclined to believe most comes from Digital Foundry.

The Eurogamer website is well known for its deep dives in game performance to see exactly how they work on a console and they are, in our opinion, some of the best technical experts when it comes console game

So when they write a story titled "PlayStation 5: when can Sony really provide a generational leap into power?

For those who do not want to read right now, the prevailing opinion of history seemed to suggest that it would be crazy to assume that Sony would release a new console anywhere before the T4 2019, but that a version 2020

PS5 Price – How much would cost the console PlayStation 5?

Again, we can not say with certainty without a cast advertisement from Sony. But based on previous versions, it is more than possible to make an educated and credible guess.

When the PlayStation 4 was launched in 2014, it was available for £ 349 in the United Kingdom and $ 399 [19659048] in the United States.

Fast forward a few years to the time when Sony launched its most powerful PlayStation 4 Pro and it was also launched at the same price as the original PS4, at £ 349 in the United Kingdom and $ 399 in the United States .

We believe that it is here that we will see the launch of the PS5, with the PS4 Pro becoming the default PS4 model at a reduced price of £ 259 in the UK and $ 299 in the United States

It also seems that the serious mistake made by Sony that burned a lot of fans with the overpriced PS3 launch price of £ 425 in the UK and $ 499 in the United States has also been learned.

So, we hope you have won Do not pay a penny of £ 399 for the PS5, if it's closer to £ 350

PS5 Games – What new titles could we play at launch?

The PS3 in the PS4 era gave us our first true taste of multi-platform releasing games. And wisely too. Both The Last of Us and GTA 5 came out near the end of the PS3 console's lifecycle to arrive at the PS4 with even greater visual fidelity.

And we suspect that the jump between PS4 and PS5 will cause much more transgeneration of the games that come out on PlayStation 4 before releasing a new version with more graphic extras on the PS5.

While we can not say for sure which games will come on PS5, there are some that we can offer. to come to the next console, as well as some annual releases which we doubt will miss either.

The games we think of are:

• Death Stranding
• Ghost of Tsushima
• Cyberpunk 2077
• Call of Duty
• FIFA 2021 on PS5
• PES 2021 on PS5 [19659062] Final Fantasy 7 Remake
• Starfield
• The Elder Scrolls 6

Call of Duty 2019 Index

An Employment List for the Next Call of Duty Infinity Ward may have given a clue about the release date of the upcoming Sony console

The reason is largely due to the list implying that the role of the work suggests that gambling is developing for many

According to the job list of SelectMinds recruiting site, Infinity Ward hires a temporary narrative writer to work on a game " new, exciting, unannounced "who is developing" platforms n ext-gen multiple. "

To be clear, the list does not explicitly say that it is for Call of Duty, but since Infinity Ward n & # 39; has not developed anything apart from Call of Duty games, you'd be surprised if they hire for anything else.

At this point, it is generally believed that any next generation system, for both the PS5 and the next Microsoft Xbox, would arrive at the earliest in 2020

The implication is therefore that either next-gen consoles arrive much earlier than everyone else anticipates, or Infinity Ward are not ] developing the game Call of Duty the following year, but the following year

The only problem with the latter, it is that in general, the developers of Call of Duty are working on three year cycles, next year being the turn of Infinity Ward.

Similarly, the only way this could change, in our mind, is if a new developer is lined up p for a new annual release of Call of Duty. Who knows, maybe Raven Software, who worked on the Modern Warfare Remaster, might be up to it. Only time will tell …

PS5 Top Compatibility – Do PS4 Games Work?

The current PS4 console uses an AMD accelerated processing unit ), built on the architecture of x86-64 machines

Now it is hypothetical, but if Sony uses this same architecture in the next PS5 console (which seems, probably) there is a good possibility that the machine could offer a backward compatibility feature with PS4 titles

PS5 Backward Compatibility – Will PS3 and Old Games Work?

] This seems more improbable since the same architecture does not support this feature.

We believe that going forward, it is more likely that Sony will continue to push its digital service PS Now which c currently offers over 650 games covering different PS2, PS3 and PS4 systems. 19459007 19459007 19459007 Currently, PS Now works as a streaming service on PS4 and PC. But, if we believe the rumors, PS Now could move to a new system that also allows to download games for an offline game. This comes from an anonymous source of Kotaku UK who claims that the new feature will be launched in September

During the E3 2018, Gamespot had the opportunity to speak with Eric Bright, Head of GameStop Merchandising. was quick to talk about the potential of the next generation of consoles.

Specifically, Bright was quick to suggest that the launch of the new PS5 and Xbox console in a couple of years will see another huge increase in sales, which he has described as a "food frenzy".

Bright also cited the recent launch of Nintendo Switch as an example, highlighting how the company was selling faster than the consoles.

"When is always the big question Phil Spencer announced that they were working on a new Xbox, what everyone expects of me when, I do not know, I honestly do not But as every material transition that occurs – and GameStop has gone through a lot in the past – it's a great time for us. "

" It will be a food frenzy that I'm going through. " Expect to generate huge traffic in our stores, "concluded Bright

However, it will be interesting to see if store sales will be affected in the long run, especially with the conversation around consoles becoming less dependent on physical media and record players.

A week of investment company Piper Jaffray, written by analysts Michael J. Olson and Yung Kim, suggests that the market for physical play declines at a rate of about 10 points per year.

The ra pport also points out that profit margins significantly increased for publishers if consoles became 100% digital because distribution costs would be (virtually) eliminated.

"We believe that it is certain that video games will be ~ 100% digital in the comi.We think that 2022 is a realistic expectation, say, Olson and Kim.

Although we doubt that the next generation of consoles will completely remove disk drives, we would not be surprised if the PS5 and Xbox Scarlet begin to usher in a new digital wave for consoles, focused on a focus on streaming platforms such PlayStation Now and Xbox Game Pass initiatives.
