Opinion: The PS5 isn't likely to arrive in 2018

The PS5 is coming in 2018 says a Macquarie Capital Securities analyst. We say: don't believe it. Here's why.

I think sony called pro a "MID GEN" refresh because.... we are only half way through this gen 🙄 ...words mean something 😒

Yes no chance the ps5 will come out next year it will be Oct/Nov 2019 by then more cheaper powerful parts will be on the shelves and it's exactly 3 years when the pro was released.

If PS5 released in 2019, it would be completely underwhelming "next generation" console. Since Sony still thinks in generations and therefore their user base will have next generation expectations.

I think 2020 at the earliest, and MS will then release Scorpio 2 at the same time or shortly thereafter.

Agreed, late 2019 is more likely.

[ShadowKnight]

I totally agree

[MasterCornholio]

Sounds about right to me.

And the next Xbox could release at the same time as the PS5 or a year later.
