Sony hasn’t even announced the PS6 yet, so there’s nothing for it to officially delay.
The company has confirmed the development of its next gaming console in discussions with AMD, and current information suggests it will launch in late 2027.
However, Insider Gaming reports that a shortage of RAM could disrupt plans and push back the system’s release date beyond what was originally intended.
Sony hasn’t officially revealed the PS6 yet, so there’s nothing to postpone. However, they might need to adjust their internal plans anyway.
As a tech enthusiast, I’ve been following the crazy RAM price increases lately, and it’s all tied to the AI explosion. Apparently, OpenAI has been making huge deals with companies like Samsung – they’ve reportedly secured around 40% of the global RAM supply! That’s a massive amount and explains why it’s getting harder and more expensive to upgrade your system.
This news has caused significant disruption in the market. Sony seems to have anticipated the shortages and secured enough parts to maintain the PS5’s current price, but it’s unclear how long they can continue to do so.
Reports suggest the company might delay the PlayStation 6 while it waits for more suppliers to become available and issues with RAM are resolved.
The last five years have been tough for PlayStation, despite doing everything right. They’ve faced major hurdles like the COVID-19 pandemic, problems getting enough computer chips, a shaky economy, tariffs, and now, increasing costs for RAM.
Overall, despite some online criticism, it has handled these difficulties quite effectively.
It’s likely Sony is thinking about delaying the PlayStation 6, though that would create significant challenges for their existing plans. We believe they’re currently discussing this internally, but a final decision probably hasn’t been reached yet.
