Latest Sony PlayStation 5 Game Console Specifications

In light of recent events, all gamers are asking only one question: “Will the new Sony PlayStation game console be released?” At present, it is not possible to answer this question. But not so long ago, rumors about the latest Sony PlayStation 5 game console appeared on the network - the technical characteristics of which are discussed in this article.

Will it come out or not? - that is the question!

If we recall past events, it is worth noting that the predecessors of the popular model were not announced for a long time, but were announced to users on the eve of the sale.

Also, do not forget that the best manufacturer of game consoles, Sony, pleases players with new consoles only when the current version becomes commonplace. And the fact that the fourth PlayStation is already like this is shown by the release of Slim and PRO modifications.

Experts and gamers doubt very much that users will be offered the next version of the mod. It is reasonable to think that the next stage, just the same, is the release of a new functional console. Therefore, it would be appropriate to say that the Sony PlayStation 5 will go on sale very soon.

Rumors that the company will stop producing game consoles should not be believed. The fact is that the popularity of PS game console models does not lose its position in the ranking of high-quality gaming devices.

When will the Sony PlayStation 5 go on sale?

The statistical studies carried out by such a popular company as Macquarie Research, and in particular by D. Tong, make it clear that it is reasonable to expect the release of a new set-top box at the end of this year, and mass implementation only in 2019. This statement deserves due attention. The fact is that it was Damian who previously accurately predicted the release dates of the fourth PlayStation and subsequent modifications.

Not so long ago, information from the research organization Wedbush Securities began to appear on the Internet. Leading analyst M. Pakhter said that the demonstration of the novelty will take place in 2019, and the mass implementation will begin as early as 2022.This interval is shifted by a whole year, when compared with D. Tong's prediction. Which of them will be right, only time will tell.

Based on this information, it is highly likely that the PS5 will arrive in 2019. In any case, it remains only to wait for the statements of the official representatives of the company in this regard.

The history of the release of the Sony PlayStation game console

• PS2 went on sale 5 years after the first version of the console saw the light of day;
• PS3 after 6 years;
• PS 4 was demonstrated 7 years later, in 2013.

If the company follows this sequence, then the release of the new console will occur in 2022, since each model “lived” for a year more when compared with its “predecessors”. But it is far from certain that this trend will continue this time as well.

PS5 Specifications

With 100% certainty, it is worth saying that by the time the new product is released, it will become the most powerful game console and will significantly outperform its rivals in all respects.

At the moment, research organizations predict the performance of the new model at the level of 10 teraflops. This is almost 2 times higher than that of the main rival Xbox Scorpio, which will be equipped with 6 teraflops in its own arsenal.

In addition, do not forget that Sony terminated the contract with Nvidia, which manufactured chips for it, and began a full partnership with AMD. This organization has already shown its own designs and is making an innovative chip with incredibly high performance.

Therefore, the PS5 will be able to run light in 4K resolution and run games at an innovative super-quality level.And game companies need to aim today to develop games based on these characteristics, which will make it possible to make unique games for the PlayStation 5 with unattainable detail and graphics.

New features

It remains only to guess what parameters the new game console will have. If you study the options and improvements described below, and compare them in detail with their predecessors, the following will most likely be demonstrated.

Prefix "All in One"

The company is able to transform the PS5 from a regular set-top box into a system that allows the owner to watch TV like on an Xbox One, or open DLNA streaming to access information on other gadgets from the set-top box.

Streaming via network

PS Now already shows this in a minor size. Streaming game launches in and of itself is a solid theme of "the future." In the future, users will be able to stream their own games over the network, just as it is already happening with movies today. But the main question is whether everyone needs another "black box" filled with "stuffing" near the TV or under it, or the company will launch production of its own TVs with Dual-Shock controllers.

VR

The biggest current gaming trend is VR. The company's mite is the PS VR helmet, which is already compatible with the fourth console. Most likely, virtual glasses will function on the new model. Due to the improved “stuffing”, the company will be able to create even better virtual worlds when compared with earlier models.

backward compatibility

Players still love their old favorites, and of course they'll want the same experience from the PS5.Microsoft showed this and gave Xbox One users backwards compatibility. On a new product from Sony, this option will also be good - there is a possibility that the already valid patent proves this.

What is the price?

There are no specific data. Not a single representative of the company has named any amounts, but proper market monitoring helps in different cases.

In this situation, it will again be logical to make prerequisites for the Xbox One X, since its approximate cost has already been published:

The average price in the Russian Federation is 40,000 rubles.

To make sure that the price of the Sony PlayStation 5 will be about the same, it's easiest to argue from the "nasty". If the company wants to sell the console at a price of about 28,000 rubles, then it will have to abandon the optical type drive, but there will be no advantages on the part of nimbleness, since there will be no funds for expensive spare parts, no matter how trite it sounds.

If the cost is higher (for example, 36,500 rubles), then the Japanese company will have to make excuses. This will not significantly improve the prefix, but it will form a delicate situation when a product of the same degree is sold at different prices. This will negatively affect the valuation of the console, which is why the brand is unlikely to take such risks.

Therefore, gamers looking forward to the PS5 should aim for a price in the $40,000 range.

Where will the innovative PSP5 console be sold?

Sony is the largest corporation, and its consoles are considered the most popular in the market, in connection with this answer to the question: "where to buy a PS5" will be the answer - almost everywhere. This is the advantage of a well-known brand - if they are determined to take it, then 100% will sell it.

Therefore, even before the formal show, it is reasonable to say that the PS5 will show off in the windows of almost all retail outlets. Of course, this does not mean at all that you can buy the original console anywhere, since there are good and bad sellers. Alas, often it becomes clear after the purchase.

What games will be on PS5?

This is one of the most interesting questions. There have been no public statements from game development companies yet. In this regard, with 100% certainty, it is impossible to name even one game that will definitely be released on the PlayStation 5. But, since the release of the console will take place in the near future, it makes sense to assume something.

Most likely, games like Death Stranding, The Last of Us: Part 2 and Days Gone will be on PS5. Probably not as exclusive for demonstrating new items, but as common developments with their predecessor.

In any case, you should not dismiss the fact that their creation will be delayed in time, because of which the release will be carried out together with the new product. This will be a great push for consumers to buy a PS5.

3 Interesting PlayStation 5 Rumors

Portability

Today, smartphones are as important as air, and the mobile gaming segment is valued in the billions.

Taking advantage of the current trend, Nintendo has approved a game plan anywhere through its own cutting-edge console, The Switch. This risky and unique solution still gives the organization excellent profits to this day.

Considering the fact that mobility matches the temporary "spirit", and also given the success of The Switch, then most likely it makes sense to follow the path of the rival and make the new product even more practical.

Some players can dream up, exactly like the artist K.Ten, who drew a line of concepts for the appearance of the PlayStation 5, similar to the Switch that fits in the hand.

At first glance, it looks like The Vita, combined with an army knife from Switzerland. However, it would be interesting to look at Sony's experiment to overtake Nintendo on its own terms.

Is GTA VI a console exclusive?

The next part of the criminal line from the creator of Rockstar Games is invariably the subject of heated discussions. A new rumor has been circulating about the uniqueness of this game for the PlayStation 5.

Blasting News states that Grand Theft Auto 6 is in the making for a Sony release. Release date circa 2022.

Such a statement raises specific doubts, because the site does not make references to official sources. But, even if Sony's deal with Rockstar actually goes through, it's unlikely that the next installment of GTA will absolutely turn its back on Microsoft's console owners.

The 5th part of the crime series saw the light at the end of that generation, just before the advanced modification conquered the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, reaping the benefits of innovative technologies.

But we should not rule out the fact that Sony was able to offer the company something that they did not refuse.

Wireless joysticks with automatic charging

PS became the enemy of cords after the release of the PlayStation 3 with wireless-type joysticks that need to be charged regularly.

As the gaming industry rapidly moves into the wireless "far", it would be logical for the company to improve the capabilities of wireless charging in PS 5's Dual Shock, like most innovative phones. Instead of connecting the joystick to the console, the player will simply put the peripheral gadget on the console and wait for the charge to be restored.

The PlayStation 5 Home website claims that experts do not fully appreciate the advantages of joysticks with wires, which, by restoring the charge, provided the opportunity not to pause the game. In addition, the site predicts impressive changes to Dual Shock while playing on the PlayStation 5, down to the presence of an integrated microphone and a small display.

Conclusion

In conclusion, it is worth noting that the authenticity of the data raises many doubts, so there is no point in completely trusting such information, but all the data sounds very confident and truthful, which is why there is a high probability that this will happen in reality.
