There are very few details left to discover about the PlayStation 5. On the official website, in fact, Sony has unveiled part of the official features
This time there can be no doubt about the authenticity of the latest rumors about the PlayStation 5. And the reason is very simple: they have been made known through the Japanese site Sony Interactive Entertainment.
Rather surprisingly, Sony reveals some technical characteristics of its next console, expected to launch only in about ten months. As known, in fact, the PlayStation 5 will arrive on the market in conjunction with the holiday season (as usual Sony, on the other hand) and will be compared with the Xbox Series X from Microsoft. Denied, however, the possibility of Nintendo launching a Switch Pro in the months or weeks before.
Technical features PlayStation 5
The Japanese company confirms that the PS5 will be equipped with a super fast SSD drive designed specifically for the console, with a CPU x86-64-AMD Ryzen Zen2 8-core, with a custom AMD Chip and a GPU AMD Radeon RDNA. Not only that, the PlayStation 5 will feature a drive dedicated exclusively to 3D audio processing and will benefit from support for the Ultra HD Blu Ray format with a maximum capacity of 100 GB. These latest revelations join those already confirmed by the Japanese brand related to the new PS5 controller that will feature new resistive triggers and haptic feedback.
PlayStation 5: the other official news
Always sifting through the site Sony Interactive Entertainment also emerges the provision of a video output capable of handling the best images in 8K, but it seems that this new feature could be linked exclusively to the playback of movies and videos and not necessarily to the new video games. Already confirmed backward compatibility with the PS4, a news that has made happy all users of the console around the world. Finally, always on the subject of compatibility, PS5 can be used with the PlayStation VR.
