At this point, most gaming fans are already convinced that PlayStation 5 will be released in 2020. Even though Sony is trying to be more secretive about their plans, several clues prove this is a huge possibility.
Recently, various information leaks have also supported the speculations that PlayStation 5 will be announced and released in 2020. A particular report even specified that Sony will hold an unveiling event on February 2020 to launch the PlayStation 5.
PlayStation 5 release date: Announcement next February to be followed by a retail release in late 2020?
Detailed information has leaked on various platforms such as Reddit, 4Chan, and NeoGAF with the same reports. The information came from someone codenamed “esTowj” who claimed to have received these details from a senior marketing manager of the video game company. Sony purportedly started planning about the so-called PlayStation Meeting 2020 last June, and the PlayStation 5 announcement is allegedly scheduled on Feb. 12, 2019.
Fans are advised to take these details with a grain of salt still. The massive leak might also affect the way Sony would implement its plans such as slightly tweaking the schedules for PlayStation 5’s release.
Meanwhile, the leak also indicates that Sony is inviting several major game developers such as Activision, Square Enix, and Ubisoft. But the company is primarily relying on its own upcoming titles such as “The Last of Us Part 2” and “Ghost of Tsushima” to popularize the event for PlayStation 5 further.
PlayStation 5 specs, price: What to expect
PlayStation 5 is dubbed as Sony’s next-generation console. That means fans should expect nothing less than impressive hardware upgrades that would elevate their gaming experience.
It was already confirmed that the PlayStation 5 will be powered by a custom AMD Ryzen chip with the Zen 2 and 7nm architecture and a Navi-based GPU that specializes on ray tracing support. Another highly anticipated change is the use of SSD instead of HDD for internal storage. The PlayStation 5 CPU is also designed to deliver 3D audio.
As for the pricing, the details remain murky. However, the various speculations and analyst predictions put the possible PlayStation 5 cost between $500 to $800.
