It almost looks like Sony is launching the PS5 with braked foam. So should be loud Bloomberg allegedly only 5 to 6 million consoles will be produced by the end of the fiscal year in March 2021, while 7.5 million units of the PS4 went over the counter over the same period, despite the fact that Sony’s production capacity is said to be unaffected by COVID-19 . However, what can still happen, the start of series production is supposed to take place in June.
Among other things, one would assume that the high price of the console, due to the ambitious specifications and the correspondingly necessary hardware, would act as a brake on sales. One would currently assume that the console will be released at a price of $ 499 to $ 549. Due to the increased component costs, it would even be likely that Sony would not earn anything from the consoles.
A postponement of the launch would not be an option, at least not until Microsoft also pulls the plug and later goes on the market. However, the simultaneous launch could mean losses for both companies, especially if there is an additional price war. So far, both companies have not given any prices for their new consoles, one can already be curious about what awaits us there.
Now all details are finally known, which hardware is in the new PS5 and Xbox Series X consoles. We discuss which console has more power.
