Sony will finally be revealing the long awaited PlayStation 5 tomorrow. The tech company announced today through various online media platforms that it is ready to unveil one of the world’s most anticipated products of 2020, the PlayStation 5.
However, we do not expect it to be the PlayStation 5 launch event we expected last January, and it’s all due to the current unpleasant world situation of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Sony started to talk about the new PlayStation console last year when it disclosed many interesting details about this next-gen console without being actually specific. It used almost all the buzzwords fans wanted: new controller, 8k gaming, ray-tracing support, 7nm processors, ultra-fast SSD storage, backward compatibility, and affordability, without speaking specifically about anything.
Till today, there are no specification sheets for the so-long awaited PlayStation 5, we don’t know what it looks like, and we do not know how much it’ll cost.
Sony has done everything right since the start of the year, building up the buzz and raising anticipation from millions of fans around the world.
After a huge leak in mid-January which revealed a lot of details about the PlayStation 5 console’s specs and features, Sony went on to mention that it would unveil the new gaming devicein early February, but then, everything changed when the coronavirus happened, and the outbreak which has forced many employees of tech companies to work remotely, equally forced Sony to pull out of many events, including the announcement it planned for the console.
Today being March 17 2020, Sony took to its official twitter page to make this announcement:
Tomorrow at 9am Pacific Time, PS5 lead system architect Mark Cerny will provide a deep dive into PS5’s system architecture, and how it will shape the future of games.

Sony has earned it’s much deserved reputation for producing some of the best gaming accessories and gaming gadgets that exist, which explains why it manages to get this amount of attention from millions around the world.
