The console would be launched in the last quarter of 2020 at a price of nearly $500. Recent leaks are making sure that we will see the presentation of Sony’s new console, PlayStation 5, in February 2020, and before that we will learn more details about their upcoming games, including The Last of Us Part II.
A possible leaked email from Sony would have revealed the date of presentation of the PlayStation 5
In recent months, a number of reports predicted that the company was preparing a major presentation event, but there is still no official date. According to a filtered Sony email published on NeoGaf and collected by GamesRadar, the product will be launched worldwide on February 12, 2020. The document does not explicitly mention PS5, but the description makes it clear that they will show “The Future of PlayStation”.
On April 16th, Sony surprisingly unveiled the first features of its next-generation console, the PlayStation 5, and introduced the SSD storage system, which significantly shortens loading times. However, there are still many details to know, including the design of the hardware, its puzzling price and the catalog of launch games.
The leak ensures that some of the industry’s leading publishers, such as Electronic Arts, Ubisoft, and Activision, will have a place at the conference to present their next-generation titles. It also mentions that Sony could take the opportunity to introduce the second generation of its virtual reality glasses, the PlayStation VR 2.
The Last of Us II release date conformation
From the details that have come out of supposed industry sources, NeoGaf mentions that Sony will be hosting two very important events in the coming months. The first will be a new issue of State of Play in November, their online promotional event where they will confirm the release date of The Last of Us II, with a new Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order Trailer and the Death Stranding Release Trailer. Both Fallen Order and Hideo Kojima’s new Fallen Order will be up for sale in November.
Of course, it’s best to take this information with a pair of tweezers and wait for Sony’s confirmation. Up to February 2020, an event called “PlayStation Meeting 2020” is planned, where they plan to present their new video game console PlayStation 5 with its technical features and price as well as a possible second generation of PlayStation VR Virtual Reality glasses The Japanese company is very cautious about revealing details of its new console.
