The PS5 was released in November 2020 and now PlayStation fans are curious about the next-gen console and what the potential PS6 release date could be. While the PS5 is still going strong with its new additions PS5 Slim and PlayStation Portal, are there any leaks, rumors, and speculation surrounding the PS6?
Sony Announces Playstation 6 Release Date…
The gap between the release of the PS4 and PS5 was 7 years, with the PS4 Slim and PS4 releasing halfway through, in 2016. Before that, the PS3 released in 2006 and PS4 in 2013, making the gap also 7 years. While not a pattern that can confirm anything, based on historical trends we can expect the PS6 release date to be somewhere around 2026-2027.
As of yet, there is no official confirmed release date for the PlayStation 6 from Sony. Some Sony executives have cited the planned lifespan of the PS5, which would suggest the PS6 could release much later than 2027.
Leaks and insights from industry insiders mention various dates, ranging from 2026 to 2028, but there is no concrete confirmation, so take these rumors with a grain of salt.
