Everything you need to know about the PlayStation 5 .

The PS5 has finally been revealed, with Sony confirming a long list of titles set to land on the next-generation as well as finally giving us a good look at the console’s design.

- PlayStation 5 Hardware Reveal Trailer

- PlayStation 5 Release Date

The PS5 will launch at the latter end of 2020.

While Sony hasn’t provided a specific release date yet, we imagine the PS5 will land in November,

As we know covid-19 is running which can affect the Launch OF PS5 .

- PlayStation 5 console'S Digital Edition look

The PS5 looks unique, with futuristic curves and a general look that’s very different to the PS4. A curvy mixture of black and white plastics with blue highlight lighting, it’s far removed from the ‘black box’ designs of previous PlayStation consoles.

The design is nearly identical, but the Digital Edition is naturally a bit slimmer, without the bulge on the bottom right that accommodates the disc drive in the other version.

- PlayStation 5 DualSense controller

The PS5 will come with a new gamepad, one that Sony is dubbing the DualSense PS5 controller, not the DualShock 5. The DualSense controller sure is an eye-catching bit of kit and the immediate reaction suggests it could be a Marmite of a device. Also a departure is the black-and-white color scheme that is bold – and likely to be divisive.

The PS5 controller includes haptic feedback in the L2 and R2 shoulder buttons that are going to be adaptive. This will let developers program the resistance of the triggers to simulate actions more accurately.

The DualSense will include a microphone inside of the controller, allowing gamers to ditch their headset to communicate with friends. And the 'Share' button is removed and introduced the 'Create' button. That's what Sony is calling the button that's in the same spot and still intended for gameplay content to share with the world.

- PlayStation 5 Games

A number of new PS5 games were confirmed during the official reveal event. You can see the game list below:

And Many More Games Coming Soon

- PlayStation 5 backwards compatibility

The PS5 is confirmed to feature backwards compatibility, as Mark Cerny (PS5 system architect) said, “PS4 graphics engines will run just fine on PlayStation 5”. A Legacy Mode was revealed for the PS5, which would allow developers to create PS4 titles for the next-gen console without losing any functionality. Those PS4 games will supposedly run at boosted frequencies, which could potentially result in improved visuals and performance.

PlayStation did suggest only the “top 100 PS4 games” will be supported by the PS5 at launch

- How powerful will the PlayStation 5 ?

Sony confirmed the specs during a video presentation. The PS5’s GPU features 10.28 TFLOPs, 26 Compute Units and a 2.23GHz variable frequency.

The PS5 will also see a custom 825GB SSD, although storage will be upgradable with M.2 SSDs from the open market since the console features an NVMe SSD Slot.
