PlayStation 5 Release Date Expected In 2020? More Rumors On Specs And Prices Detailed!
Gamers were more than elated to hear any updates on the rumors surrounding the release date of the much-anticipated PlayStation 5 including its specs and price tag once it is made available to the public.
There are a number of predictions built on the Japanese-based company's trend regarding the release date of its consoles (without mention of a price), which ultimately puts the PlayStation 5 being released somewhere in the year 2020, PS5 PlayStation 5 reported.
The source pointed out that Sony's release date history shows that the PlayStation 5 will have the same accuracy of being unveiled in the same way as its predecessors, which is roughly after 7 years since the launch of the last console.
Fans will remember that the PlayStation 4 was unveiled to consumers on Nov. 15, 2013, and if the source's calculation is correct, that will definitely put the PlayStation 5's release date roughly around November of 2020.
However, there were also reports that claimed that the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One might be the last of the gaming consoles, according to the opinion of Twitch TV Executive Emmett Shear via Crossmap.
The source pointed out the dangers that the PlayStation 5 or Xbox Two could face in the near future as smartphones are becoming more like gaming consoles and the further development of virtual reality technology.
However, the fate of the PlayStation 5 being successful rests on the hands of developers as stated by Sony Entertainment's President Shuhei Yoshida.
"If they still feel that we need more machine power - 'we want to realize this and that and that, but we cannot do it with the PS4' - there's a good reason to have the PS5 so developers can create their vision," Shuhei Yoshida explained according to PC Advisor.
Moreover, the source shared rumors surrounding the console's specs revealing that AMD will still be collaborating with the company in terms of its processing power. Also, the company might also address the growing trend of VR technology and might look in the same direction for its upcoming device in tandem with its own VR technology, Project Morpheus.
In addition, the source also speculated that the PlayStation 5 might come with a price tag roughly around $500, which is the same to most of its predecessors and most notably with the PS4.
