The day that almost all PlayStation fabs have been waiting for has finally arrived as Sony will be launching its next-gen gaming console on 16th September. Announced via its official blog, Sony will be hosting the event from 1:00 PM PDT and they have written:
“Before PlayStation 5 launches this holiday, we wanted to give you one more look at some of the great games coming to PS5 at launch (and beyond!).
Our next digital showcase will weigh in at around 40 minutes, and feature updates on the latest titles from Worldwide Studios and our world-class development partners.”
Apart from announcing the game that are coming to PS5, we could expect Sony to announce the pricing of the next-gen consoles as Microsoft has amazed the world with both of its Xbox Series S and Series X at an attractive pricing of $299 and $499. So, Sony can actually take a price cut to counter Xbox somehow and bring more exclusive games as well.
Already, Sony have given a chance to their existing users with ‘US-based address’ to pre-order and reserve a PS5 console as Sony claims there’s a limited quantity of PS5 available. However, it will be interesting to see how Sony counters Microsoft’s lucrative Xbox Game Pass Ultimate and Xbox All Access program on 16th September.
Like the Microsoft Xbox consoles, the Sony PS5 will be powered by AMD hardware and here’s what you can expect from it:
- Key features: Up to 8K resolution, 4K games at 60 fps, ray tracing, fast-loading SSD, up to 120 frames per second.
- Specs: 8-core 3.5 GHz AMD Zen 2 CPU, 10.3 teraflop AMD RDNA 2 GPU, 16 GB GDDR6 memory, 825 GB custom SSD
- Key games: Horizon II Forbidden West, Spider-Man: Miles Morales, Demon, Souls, Gran Turismo 7, Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart, Sack Boy A Big Adventure.
- DualSense Controller: A new design and two-tone look, reduced weight while retaining a strong battery inside, new adaptive triggers into the L2 and R2 buttons, a new ‘Create’ button
