PS5 release date: when the PlayStation 5 arrives? Latest news PS4 and Xbox One | Game | Entertainment

Nobody knows exactly when the release date of the PS5 will be set, outside the headquarters of Sony.

It remains a hotly debated topic, with what the PlayStation 5 will offer in terms of features.

And the rumors about the PS5 are many, although we are still years away from the release of a new PlayStation.

But we know something about the new console that will be different from the PS4.

Sony no longer provides portable devices compatible with the PS5.

It has been confirmed that PS Vita, the latest technology giant's business in the handheld market, ends its production in Japan.

This will not happen right away, but the manufacturing will be completed by the end of next year, completing PS Vita's support cycle.

This does not mean that there will be more games for some regions, but it will definitely end the hands-on experience for Sony.

And Sony PlayStation went so far as to say that they were no longer planning to produce a sequel to PS Vita.

This means that the PS5 will not be in the form of a Nintendo Switch, which means there will be no support for the PS5.

Hiroyuki Oda, vice president of Sony Interactive Entertainment, told Famitsu: "We currently have no plans to announce a new portable device.

"As for the PlayStation Vita, we will continue production until 2019 in Japan. The expedition will end.

It is logical that Sony wants to put an end to PS Vita, after a long time on the market.

The system has never reached its full potential and has not been able to obtain third party support to move to the next phase of sales.

However, there were still hopes and persistent rumors that Sony could try again, following the success of the Nintendo Switch.

But with the PS5 expected to hit the markets by 2020-2021, it is clear that it will not happen with a PS Vita 2.

Meanwhile, work is underway to provide something that can compete with its competitors, Xbox having to launch another console at about the same time.

And it was recently revealed that AMD is involved in both the Scarlett project of the PS5 and the Xbox.

In a new interview, President and CEO of AMD, Lisa Su, revealed more details about the upcoming generation change and the position of his company.

"We are working with Sony and Microsoft on the consoles," Su said.

"They both have their specific secret sauce that we help them do. "

Microsoft itself sees cloud gaming as its next big challenge and AMD could participate.

Another interesting piece of information for owners of PS4 and Xbox One is the future of PSN.

The latest rumors suggest that Sony is looking to make significant improvements to the PlayStation Network for the release of the PS5.

It is fair to say that the PSN is not without problems and that the technology giant wants to improve.

The PS Plus subscription service has become an important part of Sony's plans and he hopes to develop it.

And what's better than doing it by offering a PSN upgrade with the PS5.

Windows Central writer, Jez Corden, shared information online that suggests that a large infrastructure update is under development for the platform.

No detail has been shared, so it's hard to say what that might imply, but it does mean that Sony is working on plans far from the PS5 architecture.

Sony should not make a big announcement on PlayStation in 2018 regarding its next hardware line.

In fact, PS5's release date news might not even go down in 2019, depending on what Microsoft has planned.

The latest estimates predict that 2020 will be the most likely time for the PlayStation to replace the PS4 and PS4 Pro console line with something new.

This is based on how Sony has talked about their upcoming projects and the plans they have for the current generation.
