PS5: Release date PS5 guide, tips

Last update: 09 June 2020

When will Playstation 5 be released? Will the console launch be postponed? Will 9th generation consoles debut in 2020? You can find the answer to these questions in the below chapter of this PlayStation 5 guide.

Sony's most recent announcements uphold that the PS5 console is expected to debut in the 2020 Christmas Holiday season. Thus, it must be as late as November for the buyers to acquire their console for Christmas. This is a very solid and realistic date - it's nothing new that it is in December that people spend the most money. What's more, The Official PlayStation 5 website also confirms these figures.

Unfortunately, COVID-19, a virus that has affected many industries, has taken a heavy toll on 2020. While Sony continues to maintain that the PS5 will be released in 2020, it is likely that further complications with the virus will force the company to postpone the release until 2021. At the moment, however, this is a fairly remote scenario and it is worth hoping that everything will go according to Sony's original plan of action.
