As we near the year of 2020 there has been lots of talk about the next generation consoles for Sony and Microsoft. It’s pretty clear that the next console for Sony will be the PlayStation 5 unless they come up with a completely new name for it, but for now that’s what we will call it. According to a recent report from IGN, Sony is apparently having their first-party studios focus on the PlayStation 5 and we might not see what those projects are for some time.
Daniel Ahmed, Industry Analyst went to ResetEra and said the following:
“Sony also has a couple of unannounced games (already existing IP) with PS4 in mind but I’m conscious that there have been discussions around making them cross gen/next gen titles. In general, most of the focus for Sony 1P is on PS5 right now. It is still early to talk about next gen but I imagine we’ll hear some whispers come out of GDC.”
In 2018 it was revealed that PlayStation 5 is in production as well as Microsoft’s next generation console. We will have to wait and see later this year if we will find new information from the respective companies on the next generation. It was also rumored that the next PlayStation console will have Backward Compatibility.
