We’ve just received news of the mysterious PS6, which may be the most powerful console of its generation. Let’s take stock of what we’ve learned.
Currently, some PlayStation gamers have a very specific topic of discussion: the PS5 Pro. Will it be set up? For now we are content with rumors to shorten the wait, but we have nothing official to confirm this. But without warning we received news… about the PS6. And be careful, we’re not talking about anything. We’re told it will be the most powerful console of its generation. Just that.
The PS6, a console that will destroy the competition?
This information initially comes from the RedGaming Tech channel. As you have probably understood, this means that we have to distance ourselves from what has been said. The PS6 has reportedly been in development for about a year and its specs, such as CPU or RAM, have apparently not been finalized yet. Nothing unusual so far, it shouldn’t be an easy undertaking. In any case, the YouTuber explains that Sony is talking to development studios to improve the machine’s system. For our man it will definitely be equipped by the manufacturer AMD.
According to Red Gaming Tech, the Japanese company has no one else in its sights. For some people this may seem surprising. What about NVIDIA, for example? Regardless, it is made clear to us that Sony is trying to make the PS6 the most powerful console of its generation. A strong statement considering we don’t have any real details. The addition of ray tracing and path tracing is mentioned, which would give it a nice edge over the others. In any case, the company would take its time without rushing and you know what that means. It’s not ready for release yet and we’re talking about a 2028 release.
What about the PS5 Pro?
Well, the PS6 is all well and good, but what about the PS5 Pro? It is even more complicated to take a position on this issue, since its existence has not been confirmed. Rumors have been circulating since 2022, but now they are just rumors. But then where is the official information? For Tom Henderson, a fairly reliable insider in the field, Sony expected leaks in the coming weeks, but at the moment there are no leaks in sight.
Without even talking about the PS6, the PS5 Pro could already offer a significant graphics leap with better shader management. For this purpose, two special engines would be used to improve performance. Remember that Jeff Grubb talked about an internal system that would offer better graphics and increase fluidity thanks to AI. We won’t delve further into this topic as we’re just referring to the theory, but it goes without saying that it leaves you wanting more.
