PlayStation 4 continues to work well, especially thanks to the innovations that have led to the launch of Slim, Pro and PlayStation VR models, which have boosted the game's console capabilities, as well as a variety of great titles They'll keep you entertained.
However, the PS4 is slowly approaching the end of its life cycle and details about its long awaited restoration are starting to emerge.
The Sons have invited several media outlets to head to their California headquarters to see what can be expected of the new generation of consoles. The event showed some exciting results for the first version of the app, including a new CPU and GPU and a very fast SSD installation that almost makes loading times a thing of the past.
Since then, Wired Media has specialized in many aspects of the console, including information on hardware and, what's more exciting, is the official release date, while patent leaks give us our first look at the next generation of DualShock 5 controllers.
We have all the details here, so read on if you want to know more about the new PlayStation 5.
When will the PS5 be sold?
Now Tony has confirmed that the 2020 holiday season will be the official launch date of the PS5, and yes, the company has also confirmed the PS5 as an official name (thankfully).
Now we also have the logo, the only thing that Sony had announced for the PS5 during the opening of his talk at CES 2020.
How much does the new PlayStation cost?
Without knowing exactly what's on offer, it's impossible to predict exactly how much the PS5 will cost. Given that The PS2 costs about 239 euros, PS3 425 and PS4 365 pounds sterling, we can only swear that Sony will keep its price at about 400 euros.
The new generation of CPU and GPU, combined with an internal SSD drive, can mean that it can be more expensive than the way we normally do it.
However, due to the changing nature of the gaming environment, Tony may not be trying to make money by selling his cosmetics at all and may not even advertise to as many homes as possible, and relying on after-game marketing resources to generate revenue for all phases of each console's life.
What will the PS5 look like?
A report by LetsGoDigital claims to have received a patent for a V-shaped device. This website compares the patent system with another similar PS4 system in Brazil, as evidence that it could be a PS5 patent. You can check ownership in the next image.
The patent application shows that the inventor of the anonymous device is Yusuhiro Ootori, Sony's technical director. V can be referred to as the Roman numeral V, which is the number five.
Obviously, this could be a design that the company can eventually implement. It's a lot different than the previous PS4 build, and it actually reminds us of the first Xbox that had the X-shaped design.
If this is ultimately not a PS5 build, then it could be closer to your final build any of the concept images available on the web.
Service of to broadcast PlayStation Now and digital downloads may be enough to remove the discs, so it can be an interactive tool.
Below we show a picture of the formation we have acquired over the net.
What features will the PS5 have?
The PS5 will feature the CPU and GPU produced by AMD.
The CPU is based on the third-generation Ryzen AMD series, and will contain 8 cores for the new 7 nm Zen 2 company.
The GPU will be a variant of the Radeon family of Navi and will support ray tracing, a graphics technology that allows you to provide a truly brighter path within the game, allowing direct exposure to water and deep shadows for maximum response.
Ray-tracking technology was released by Nvidia at the launch of its RTX cards at Gamescom 2018, and you can see their results in the following video.
Development of hardware The most requested of developers and players is SSD (Solid State Drive). As games grow and graphics develop, so much for hardware Saving games.
The event featured a classic version of the future console that showed the difference in loading times using Spiderman's theme for the year as an example. The faster navigation feature requires the console to load a completely new environment, and on the PS4 this took about 15 seconds, while on the new forum console it took 0.8 seconds.
This huge increase in data transfer speed also allows developers to create experiences where an actor can pass through a data world much faster than it currently does.
Currently, Spiderman can only travel the world at high speed speeds because the console can't build a world around it quickly.
The demo showed a character traveling at a speed close to the helicopter, with the edge showing a detailed world that was loaded despite how fast the character was moving. This really opens up many opportunities for the future of gambling.
The new AMD chip will also contain a custom 3D audio unit, which allows for great surround sound, as you can hear the sound quite clearly in all directions. This will be available to all speakers, but the gold standard will always be used by headphones to get the best audio experience possible.
PSVR headphones will also be compatible with the new console and, when built on the same design as the PS4, there will be a transition period in which the titles will be released in both programs. And it will be compatible with previous versions to play PS4 titles in the latest generation console.
It is also said to take over hardware, Though the industry is undoubtedly evolving into digital distribution channels and the experience of nostalgia will create streaming services from video games like Google & # 39; s Stadia.
Will the PS5 provide VR (Virtual Reality) support?
The Sons have confirmed that the RV will be an important part of its safety for the next generation, which will not be too surprising. However, we do not have the exact details of what that plan will look like, because Sony is keeping a tight secret at the moment.
PSVR headphones available They will be compatible with the latest generation console, so you won't have to buy a new one. However, we may be surprised that sometimes a new generation of headware has not been seen using that new standard. hardware that appears in the next console.
Will it carry like a Nintendo switchch?
Some of the key questions around the PS5 are that Sony will follow in the footsteps of Nintendo and introduce a handheld / hand console hybrid such as Nintendo Switch.
There are some precedents, of course: Sony has previously introduced the portable PlayStation and PlayStation Vita, and the latter can connect to the PS4 and be used as a screen and remote control for games.
However, the disappointing sales of the Vita mean that it is possible for Sony to have more ambition to return to the market with available devices. In addition, the current PS4 domain is in part due to its position as the most powerful console in the market: we can't see Sony doing the kind of concessions according to the specifications needed to make the physical form work.
However, John Kodera's comment from May 2018 suggests that the idea could be on the table too. One interview with BloombergKodera said:
"In my opinion, instead of separating mobile games from consoles, it's important to keep thinking about (mobile games) as a way to provide more game experience and look at what our customers want from laptops. We want to think about it with more options."
