Sony on Thursday revealed the design language of the PlayStation 5, alongside the lineup of games coming to the next-generation console. The announcement was made during an hour-long digital-only event watched by millions of people globally.
The Japanese tech giant showed two models of the PlayStation 5: a regular one with a 4K Blu-Ray drive, and a “Digital Edition” that does not include the disk drive. The PlayStation 5 can be placed vertically or horizontally, unlike the Nintendo Switch which is a hybrid console. The PS5 will come with the next-generation, DualSense controller.
The PlayStation 5’s design looks futuristic, something that helps Sony to differentiate its flagship console from Microsoft’s upcoming Xbox Series X. Matching the PS5 will be a number of accessories, including a camera, headphones, and a remote control. Sony has not yet announced the price or firm release date of the PS5. Pricing of the accessories remains unknown at this moment.

Sony, like its competitor Microsoft, has been slowly creating hype around its console ahead of the launch which will happen during the 2020 Holiday season. In March, PlayStation lead system architect Mark Cerny confirmed that the new console would have an eight-core CPU based on AMD’s 7nm process and a custom AMD RDNA 2-based GPU. In terms of RAM, the PS5 will sport 16GB of GDDR6 RAM. Unlike the PS4 which had the traditional hard drive, the PS5 comes with a solid-state drive (SSD). The PS5 will also support 8K graphics, 4K graphics at a 120Hz refresh rate, and 3D audio. And yes, the PS5 will be backwards compatible with PS4 games.
During an hour-long livestream, Sony also introduced a ton of games for the PlayStation 5, including Spider-Man: Miles Morales and Gran Turismo 7.
