A recent statement by Sony’s Lin Tao has PlayStation fans wondering if the PS5 might be supported for longer than usual.
The pandemic greatly affected Sony’s plans for the PS5, causing problems with manufacturing and delaying the start of the new console generation.
There have long been discussions about Sony wanting to keep the PlayStation 5 relevant for a long time, but recent reports indicate they’re now aiming to release its next console as soon as 2027.
This would mean the PS5 would be the main focus for around seven years, similar to how long the PS4 was supported.
During Sony’s recent financial update, CFO Lin Tao suggested the company will likely continue prioritizing its current PlayStation consoles.
With so many people actively using the PlayStation 5, we feel it’s still early in its lifecycle, and we have big plans to continue developing and improving it, according to Destin Legarie.
Is Sony planning to support the PS5 for a longer period than previous consoles? It’s unclear, but based on what Tao said, the PS5 could remain the primary focus for at least five more years.
Alternatively, Tao might be suggesting Sony intends to continue supporting the PlayStation 5 for several more years, potentially until around 2030. After that, the PS6 could be released, and the PS5 would likely become a less central console, similar to how the PS4 has functioned during the current generation.
It will be really interesting to watch how the company develops over the next few years. Many PlayStation fans believe the PS5 hasn’t yet reached its full potential, particularly when it comes to releasing exclusive games that truly stand out as defining for this generation.
