The PlayStation 5 is coming but when and in what form?
- Update: Update: With each announcement Sony seems to be focusing less and less on the home console. Now we've heard the news that Sony has formed a new company to focus on mobile games, indicating that the future of PlayStation might be more mobile than we'd previously thought.
It probably won't happen this year, but the PS5 is almost guaranteed to arrive on shelves eventually. Yep, we'd bet our game collection that the Sony PlayStation 5 is probably in development right now.
How can we be so sure?
The PlayStation 4 has now sold 35 million units worldwide and has shown no sign of slowing down. There are plenty of excellent games still to come on this generation of hardware (see: the best games on PS4), but the next iteration is right around the bend.
Our wish list for an eventual PS4 update includes HDMI 2.0 connections and an Ultra HD Blu-ray drive for 4K playback, something that should absolutely be possible on Sony's next-generation of hardware.
