Only a few months to go before the official release of the PS5, the next console from the Sony PlayStation team. After a rather particular communication in recent months, we were finally able to witness the future of gaming thanks to the live of September 16.
The meeting was an opportunity to finally get the price and release date of the console, but also an amazing reveal of big games like God of War Ragnarok, Hogwarts Legacy, Demon's Souls and more...
This article is, in any case, entirely dedicated to the next-generation PlayStation with everything you need to know about it and regular updates, so don't hesitate to bookmark it.

- Price: PS5 Standard Edition: $499.99 / €499.99 / £449.99 / ¥49,980
PS5 Digital Edition: $399.99 / €399.99 / £359.99 / ¥39,980 - Release date: The PlayStation 5 will release on November 12 in the US, Japan, Canada, Mexico, Australia, New Zealand and South Korea. Then, the console will be realeased on November 19 in the rest of the world.
This time it's concrete: the price and the release date of the PlayStation 5 were officialy unveiled during the PlayStation Showcase earlier.
PS5 pre-order
At the moment, it's a bit of a mess for players interested in buying a PS5: all stocks are being robbed in just a few minutes, and while pre-orders were indicated for Thursday morning, September 17, many retailers begun the sale the same evening, right after the conference dedicated to the machine. According to Jim Ryan, there should be more PS5s in circulation than PS4s at the time, we'd like to think that's a good sign, but given the propensity for people to rip the stock in 30 seconds, there's reason to be dubious. Worst case scenario, the "more than 10" will be able to pre-order the PS5 in gold.
