As we enter 2018, those dreaming about a PlayStation 5 should feel a little closer. With the PS4 console family all but concluded, Sony will begin to explore what comes next. Of course, the PS4 isn’t about to become redundant, far from it. However, technology moves ahead faster in the world of today, and it would be totally wrong of Sony not to be thinking about what can come next.
It makes sense that Sony will already be contemplating a PlayStation 5. Sony isn’t a company that likes to confuse consumers with a gimmicky new name. Cough, cough, Microsoft. Yes, I think you’ll find brands out there that try this, and it doesn’t generally go down well. Thus, expect Sony’s next console to be named the PlayStation 5. The price isn’t decided as yet and you can expect many coupon codes to become available from a variety of retailers near to release, allowing you to grab a discount.
Sony has, and continues to be busy with the PlayStation 4 brand. They’ve introduced PS VR, the PS4 Slim and the PS4 Pro. They’ve taken the PlayStation 4 and upgraded it and introduced virtual reality for owners of the console. These big moves have certainly taken much of Sony’s energy. That’s not to mention the impressive exclusives that continue to be pumped out.
With that all said, it seems Sony’s attention can probably now focus away from hardware, at least within the cycle of the PS4. It’s all about exclusive games for Sony, bringing out the very best from the world’s best-selling console – the PlayStation 4.
The PS4 was released back in late 2013, meaning that the console has enjoyed roughly four years of its product life. Sony’s introduction of the PS4 Pro has helped to extend the products’ life.
When it comes to a PlayStation 5, it won’t be a small upgrade from what the PS4 Pro can offer. The PS5 will be a large leap, bringing far greater entertainment opportunities for gamers and fans alike. With the PS4 brand continuing to sell extremely well, there will come a time when a large upgrade becomes apparent.
2018 brings with it new possibilities, technology advancements can change things dramatically. One thing is clear, we’re certainly closer to seeing a PlayStation 5 in 2018 than we were prior. Thus, raise your excitement levels a little and await juicier PS5 rumours, news and concepts.
Wheres TWISTED METAL
“With the PS4 console family all but concluded” Really… PS4 Pro just came out like a year plus ago so I don’t see a new playstation for at least another 2 to 3 years. “it seems Sony’s attention can probably now focus away from hardware” I don’t think so, hardware equals software sales so a company would not stop pushing for the very things that helps them sell more games especially when they are still manufacturing this consoles I think they want to get them out the door. The point of software is to move hardware.
Sony fans like you are desperate for one so please stop making a ass of yourselves hahahhaahaha there is no power greater then X …………………..not that Soupstation4 or Pro trash hahahhaahha
Numbers dont lie. Maybe you should set up protests so you guys can help sell systems for them. Their gonna need all the help they can. Hahahahaha. The X bombed terribly. Yet still more people have the base and S versions so in reality…. You figure it out lololhahahahahahahahloooooollllllhehehehehehehe. Moron
I own an Xbox One X and still have an Xbox One S GoW Edition, so what are you talking about, I’m can afford to own both a PS4 Pro and an Xbox One X I’m not 12 years old and have to beg my parents for one or the other and after have to go online to justify the one console I own (Though a lot of you kids do come on here fighting for a console you don’t have and can’t afford and your parents won’t spent $500 for one).
