Release Date
PS5 Showcase Predictions
To continue its retort to Microsoft, Sony’s most likely going to announce when players can get their hands on their very own PS5 during the Showcase event, too.
With the Xbox Series X and S both releasing on Nov. 10 of this year, I’d be very surprised if the PS5 falls much farther than two weeks either side of this.
Sony will want to make the most of the Thanksgiving and Black Friday holiday chaos this year to help bolster software, hardware and accessories sales for its next-gen systems. The only way to do so, obviously, is to release a week or two prior, which would put it smack bang next to the Xbox Series S and X.
If I were the betting type — and I 100% am — I’d be looking at placing some money for a PS5 release date in the week that follows the Xbox Series X and S. That means any time from Nov. 16 – Nov. 20.
