Sony PlayStation 5: everything you need to know about the upcoming new-generation console

As the years went by, fans of Sony PlayStation from different parts of the world have been awarded: in 2019, the Japanese giant electronics manufacturer announced the launch of its new console. Now it is 2020 and in this period of time the news has already overgrown with lots of rumors and speculation. How much will the new Sony console cost? When will it be finally launched? What games will you be able to play on the console? What are its technical characteristics? These and many other questions are a pain in the neck for many console gamers in all Russia. Today you are going to find out the latest information about the fifth Sony console.

Date of the Launch of PlayStation 5

Unfortunately, at the moment nobody knows the exact date of the launch of the news console so it would be misleading to write about any specific time. However, there is something to discuss: the company approved that the console will be hit the market at the winter holiday period. It is likely to appear on show-cases at the time between October and December 2020. It would be logical due to two reasons. Firstly, this is the time of the launch of Xbox X. Secondly, it is a tradition to launch new Sony consoles in November. So, there are more than enough premises to launch the consoles in November.

How Much Will PlayStation 5 Cost?

Currently, Sony has said nothing about the price. Perhaps, the thing is that they have not decided how much their console should cost. We know for sure that the cost of the new console may be even bigger than Xbox X. Anyway, the CEO of Sony Interactive Entertainment dropped a hint in his interview that were not going to focus on trying to fix their price according to Xbox. So, it may happen that Sony fans will have to loosen purse strings for Christmas Eve.

It is not surprising that this halo of secrecy around the price of the new console has led to lots of rumours about its real cost. And even though there is a lot of heresy among these leaks, some of the suppositions seem to be plausible. For example, one of the leaks states that the console will cost $499 in the North America. And it would be great to be true as this price is only $100 more than PS4 and PS4 Pro at the market launch.

But we should understand that this price is may just be a way to give out desirable for valid. In fact, according to Bloomberg, Sony will not launch as many consoles, as the company did with PS4, even though there is no problem in manufacture in comparison to the situation in 2013. It makes us think that the Japanese already know that the demand for their new device will not be high so they do not hurry to fill the market with it. Another argument for the high price for PS4 is its hardware. It is not a secret for anyone that the Japanese are going to provide the new Sony with top filling and it is pricey.

How Will PlayStation 5 Look

The new console will definitely stand out against its predecessors: curved milk-white shapes with black speckles and blue lightning against classical black boxes. By the way, there will be two versions of the console: one with 4К Blu-Ray drive, and another one – more compact, lacking any drive.

PlayStation 5 Hardware

The main outstanding feature of PlayStation 5 hardware is SSD storage that has already become long-awaited. Its presence will make it faster to start a game but also it will make it possible to run vast open worlds. Thanks to the higher capacity of SSD, storage using will also be optimized: not it is possible to download the data right from the данные можно будет загружать прямо из solid state drive instead of random access memory. It will mean that the gamer will see less downloading of textures and short time of starting games. Also the console must come round after the standby mode faster. But that is not the end: now the gamer will be able to set the components of the game that are necessary for them. For example, those who like playing on the net will be able to start something like Death Match without downloading the game on the disk. Also you will be able to continue the game from the checkpoint without the need to run the whole game.

Verdict

PlayStation 5 must definitely be interesting and different from any product that has been launched before. To say the least, you should take a look at the new Sony device only because of the appearance of SSD in a console and selected downloading of the components of games.
