Sony PlayStation 5 : Play Has No Limits

PS5 Release Date, PS5 Games, PS5 Power vs Xbox One X, PS5 Price Speculation - All the PS5 Info lets discuss



Here are all the rumors and speculation surrounding the PS5, including a potential PS5 release date, power, and launch games of Sony's inevitable PS5. Is the PS5 releasing in 2019?


What we Want From the PS5 Speculation aside, what would we ideally want from the PS5? Backwards compatibility for PS4 games would be brilliant, simply because you'd be able to carry over classics like the Shadow of the Colossus remake to the next console generation. We've seen how well Microsoft is handling backwards compatibility with its Xbox One consoles (including getting amazing results updating Xbox 360 games to run in 4K on Xbox One X), and something similar on PS5 would be great.

In terms of pure power, the PlayStation 5 has to significantly exceed the power of the Xbox One X. This means featuring more games running in 4K at 60FPS. If the PS5 can deliver about 10 TF of power we'd be happy, as this would allow devs to create games that look a generation ahead of what we've got now.

But what would the dream launch lineup be for the PS5? Death Stranding and The Last of Us: Part 2 are hugely anticipated blockbuster games, with the former especially looking to push the performance of whatever system it's on to the very limit. We've also mentioned Ghost of Tsushima and a sequel to Horizon Zero Dawn, and the latter would be the perfect way to kick off a new console cycle from Sony.

my bad two cents :

1)Xbox S will sell quite well. Due to its price and subscription model.

2) If I was sony I would aim for this price
Let’s finalize pricing guesses for both editions!

PS5 Disc Edition = $449
PS5 Digital Edition = $399
This means PlayStation manages to undercut Xbox series X console and provide a 4K experience for a cheaper price.

Why do they need to undercut when they have exclusives? I'd like your bad two cents on this too :unsure:

I think its quite obvious and simple. There are different priorities and target markets.
1) for people for whom exclusives (and maybe specific games) matter will naturally go for whatever platform exclusives are on.
2) people from whom price will be highest priority, and spend alot of time on multiplatforms i.e console fifa, madden, COD, etc market

they will cover both of these markets nicely.

And it looks like the prices have been leaked via retailer leaks, multiple retailers seem to be leaking the same:

Both Sony & Microsoft really ought to be offering regional pricing for different countries, if they hope their disc-less consoles to sell well. Otherwise, there's simply no point in owning a disc less console, especially when you lose the previlege to sell/buy/trade-in preowned games.

It's gonna be close but I think Sony might gamble a bit here with the pricing:

599
499

The shop's name is El Corte Ingles (as per the name shown on the screen at the top) based in Spain/UK. Prices look to be in Euro.

Going by how the prices of consoles are announced to be the same for USD and Euro, it seems likely the PS5 Disc Version is going to end up being US$499. Kind of disappointing but expected.

Still will be happily surprised if it is less than $499

It'll be positively surprising for me if Sony tries to undercut the XSX's price point with the disc drive version of the PS5. The digital edition at $400 makes a lot of sense. A $100 difference between the Series S and PS5 is going to be tempting even for the budget conscious consumers.

And Bloomberg also predicts the disc based PS5 to undercut the XBSX by $50.

Sony is expected to announce details such as price and release date at the PS5 related video event to be held on the 17th. Masahiro Wakasugi, an analyst at Bloomberg Intelligence, expects the cheapest case to be priced at $ 449 for a model with a disk drive and $ 399 for a model without a disk drive

    You reap what you sow. This is what happens when you take away choice from consumers. Even with 88% split going to developers, they can't recoup costs. Meanwhile, Helldivers 2 is a massive hit for Sony thanks in big part to Steam.
