Sony Says Release Of PlayStation 5 On Track

The PlayStation 5 is “on track for launch in this holiday season”, says Sony.

Sony made the announcement where it also reported 14 percent lower gaming revenue year-on-year, highlighting the importance of the upcoming PS5. The PS4 has now topped 110 million units sold worldwide.

“Regarding the launch of PlayStation 5, although factors such as employees working from home and restrictions on international travel have presented some challenges in regards to part of the testing process and the qualification of production lines, development is progressing with the launch of the console scheduled for the 2020 holiday season,” Sony says in its report. 

The company is likely to prioritize at least a few selective PS5 games to boost sales of the new console; it just announced new PlayStation Studios branding for its first-party titles, which were possibly the biggest selling point for the PS4. 

Sony has unveiled the specs, logo, and controller, but hasn’t revealed the console’s design or any next-gen game, keeping the excitement of its fans intact.
