Sony is still being reticent about the development of PlayStation 5 leading the gaming community to look for other sources of information. At the moment, one leaker has emerged amidst Sony’s silence who has a history of correctly predicting events that have yet to take place, TheNerdMag reported.
The leaker in question is Reddit user RuthenicCookie who said that Sony will not be attending E3 2019 even before the company announced their absence. What’s more, the leaker also predicted that EA and Bioware’s “Anthem” will be a bug-filled mess before the launch, which was also right on the money. As such, RuthenicCookie’s claim that the PlayStation 5 will run at a 4K resolution on 60 fps should be subject for discussion, at the very least.
Regarding the release date of the PlayStation 5, there’s still no news on the front either. However, several publications are speculating that it will come out in 2021. The assumption stems from the analysis report done by Rakuten Securities.
In a nutshell, the report argues that Sony’s decision mainly revolves around the declining life cycle of the PlayStation 4. With “The Last of Us Part 2” and “Ghost of Tsushima” expected to come out in 2020, the company doesn’t want the PlayStation 5 to compete with its predecessor regarding sales performance.
This is especially true since the PlayStation 5 is reportedly going to have a backward compatibility feature, which means it can run titles designed for the previous systems. With both games above expected to be enticing purchases for gamers who still don’t have a PlayStation 4, Sony wants the console to push for one last run before finally winking out and passing the torch.
It was initially thought that PlayStation 5 will come out in 2020 due to the major shakeup within its upper echelons but that speculation appears to be off the mark. Hopefully, the development of this next-generation console goes swimmingly as the system is one of the most anticipated consoles that gamers have been waiting.
