Sony has not yet announced when PlayStation 5 will be released and has not even given an indication of a release date for the PS5, but we know that the Xbox Scarlett will arrive sometime during the 2020 holiday celebrations, perhaps in November; and probably the PS5 will also be released in that date.
Video game industry’s future seems to evolve over the next one and a half years, and the first indication of this possibility comes from Xbox’s confirmation of the Christmas launch of Scarlett 2020. Microsoft’s next step in this sector would also land next to Halo Infinite, and logically it was Sony’s turn to move.
PS5 likely to arrive 2021 or 2020?
An article from The Wall Street Journal was published yesterday, recalled and focused on highlighting how Sony had put the console’s focus on the “Gamer Hardcore” so that it had the best possible technical capabilities. One detail that was overlooked is the mention of the PlayStation 5’s launch timeline, which was divided into the following sentence: “The new console, expected at Christmas 2020, will have better graphics and familiar games to distinguish it from its competitors.
PlayStation 5 or Xbox Scarlett, who will arrive first?
In this sense, we remember that a few months ago it was possible to confirm that PlayStation 5 would definitely not land before at least April 2020, which was reflected in one of the Japanese brand’s financial documents. Considering this fact, the information provided now by the Wall Street Journal and the gossip highlighted by the comic book suggesting that the console should not be launched until 2021, it seems at least clear that the arrival of the platform will take place at a moment almost identical to that of Scarlett. So this time it could come to a practically equivalent rivalry, which corresponds to everything seen during this generation. The question is: Who arrives first?
