PlayStation 6 is expected to be released in 2027

[dany28]

I read that Sony plans to release its Playstation 6 in 2027. Whether this is safe now is probably not yet clear but it would fit. I think the price of the console will probably decide its future. Let us be surprised by what will happen in the next few years.

hopefully not it would be too son in my opinion

 

[BanzaiBill]

I Hope not too. PS5 still has good hardware and seeing what's happening with Switch 2 prices, it would probably be a bad idea.

What the ps5 has an almost smaller library than the Virtual Boy(proportionally speaking), what the hell are the thinking and also little to nothing of that library is worth owning.

Cool. I don’t want that.
We will see as time goes along, but this generation has soured me on Sony’s current management even more than the previous era did. I’m loving my time with my PS5, but I don’t suspect to remain “loyal” into the next generation as it were, especially with the economy and my own future having such a question mark.

It’s easy to be pessimistic, but I’m an optimist by nature. That said, I need to see something to even be optimistic over. Until a console exists and is literally in people’s hands, all I can say is “I’m happy with what I have now.”

 

[Elwiwi]

But why? Ps5 is an underused console

 

[SorenFireEmblem]

Oh my god guys new leak. Sony MIGHT be releasing games in 2027.

I read it too, in this thread, but I'll believe it when I see it. I would not be surprised to see a lot of stuff ambiguously delayed until 2028, at least for the US.

To me any new upgraded Consoles are dead, since PS4 PRO and Xbox One X and not worth it against PC Master Race.
Before consoles was benefit because cheaper hardware and system exclusives games and fast plugnplay.
But modern consoles behave like MAC pc and games are expensive, needs regular long updates and subscriptions and forced systemupdates and waiting before playing and need limited tweaks for performance/visual quality.

On my rtx3080 laptop/55inch TV, I can play former systemexclusives and massive pc gameslog for cheaper, while I can tweak/mod/cheat to my liking with PC games offline.

7 seven years seems about normal for a new gen, but this one has been so slow that it still seems like the ps5 just released. I also thought the ps5 pro to be a big middle finger for their customers. Seeing the performance of games like Demon's Souls, Returnal or R&C Rift Apart one would think the console's potency could still be squeezed.

Personally, after having bought a PC a year ago, I don't think I'll be buying any consoles any time soon. Perhaps switch 2 whenever it drops its price

PS5 came out at a kind of weird time and i think people werent really clear on what it offered... and it was pricey.. and it was difficult to obtain at first.

Here's what i would do if i was sony:

PSP3: "$299"

and then walk off stage

(but what do i know?)

 

[BunnyLain]

We're on 6 now?

 

[Stingy Perry]

It gives the Switch 2 a two year head start .

 

[newageretrohippie]

We're on 6 now?

i'm still on 3

I don't think so, Switch 2 isn't really next-gen, although I believe the classic sense of "generations" has diluted in the last years

If Sony actually tried another PSP-like console, I think that'd be the sign the sun would crash soon.
The Vita and PSP were amazing by my standards, but if I remember correctly, they critically flopped. Handheld gaming is basically just a gacha thing, or a Nintendo product anymore.

you know what they say: "this year's nintendo product is next year's sony innovation" :P :D

The PlayStation 5 took quite many years before having its biggest exclusives as the 4 still had games.

I understand that there was a major world event when it came out but I feel that the PS5 barely has shined to have Sony make their next console, the 5 Pro is still recent.

Will it be yet another moment where we'll get to see games coming both on the PS5 and PS6 for the first two years?

What will be the technological gap between a 5 Pro and a 6?


We'll be only 3 gens away from

 

[Skeleben]

Not me finally getting a ps5 a week ago lmao

 

[Krazy Kat]

i'm not buying console with no exclusive coz i have decent pc

 

[MrPanda61]

i'm still on 3

Thought the world stopped after 2

 

[newageretrohippie]

Thought the world stopped after 2

I'm pretty sure we are all stuck in a playstation 9 with the disc drive jammed

You mean the nanomachines?

 

[iamthemilkman]

I'd be fine with this generation lasting longer since it took so long to start given all of the cross gen games. I also bought a PS5 Pro so I'm good for a while. It saddens me that this is the last console generation that'll have discs. I'll cling on as long as I can.

 

[TropicalFreeze3499]

It's cool how there are no games on the current system and they're moving onto the next one.
