Sony to Release the Much-Awaited Playstation 5 Next Year

It boasts of incredible processing power.

Which features can we expect from the PlayStation 5 as it is due release next year? It had been a trend of Sony to update PlayStation with all new hardware after every seven years. Next year will be the seventh year since PS4 introduction. According to the early PlayStation 5 reports from the the reporters of Sony president back in October 2018 it was reported that it is necessary to have successor to the PlayStation 4. The release of PlayStation 4 was in October 2015, but now the release cadence of each successive PlayStation have suggested that we will have a new model next year.

              Is it necessary for Sony to Upgrade?

The introduction of PlayStation 4 took place immediately after Xbox One S improved the ante, which could support 4K video resolution using the Google Stadia cloud gaming service. After Sony realized that, they were making impressive sales they come up with PlayStation 4 for competition purposes. The new games introduced in PS4 played optimally so there was no much improvement compared to PS3. In real sense, there is no significant need for an upgrade but only for improving the console, it will need to build a new device.

              Proof that toward introduction of PS5

The developer kits for PlayStation 5 began appearing some years back, whereby, game makers were given time to make sure that the older games will be able to work on the new software and begin development on new titles. Developer kits presence indicates to us that there are plans by sony to introduce a new device and probably it will be next year based on their trend in the past.

 

              Features of PlayStation 5

Multi-core processor: Newer processors have which offer a lot of power at low power consumption levels been introduced after their current eight-core AMD architecture was introduced. For this reason, without doubt we expect new multi-core processor inside PS5.

GPUs: Due to the improvement in the CPU, there is a likelihood of improvement in graphics performance.

 

The other Chips we expect in PS5 include Trusted Platform Module (TPM) that is common in Windows PCs and T2 in Macs. These chips will allow performance of the encryption services without taxing the other main chips in system.

              Cost of PlayStation 5

The trend of Sony pricing for their devices is unpredictable for instance, PlayStation 3 launched and it cost $1000. Introduction of PS4 after a duration of 7 years when PS4 was $ 549. Due to the stiff competition, they are facing from Microsoft and others, the price should range between the prices of PS4 and PS3, if we acted as gabblers we would set it at $800.
