Of course MS´ contention that Switch is part of same market would be contradicted by ¨Blue Ocean¨ Nintendo themself, who should also be depositioned if this angle is taken seriously. It´s about defining the relevant market(s), thus the focus on comparative price-points. That is enough of a leap to get closer to native 4k than base PS5 is going to manage, and also provide 60 fps in some games that will struggle to hit 60 fps on base PS5. For $600 Holiday 2024 I reckon they could manage a jump from 10 tflops up to maybe 15-16 tflops, a CPU clock speed increase, and double the SSD size. I don't think it'll be coming in for the same $500 that base PS5 launched for in 2020 most likely, if I was a betting man I'd bet on a PS5 detachable disc drive model price cut to $400 Holiday 2024, and a drop down to $350 for the digital PS5 model without the detachable disc drive bundled in the box, and PS5 Pro launching Holiday 2024 at $600. The same source that told him about those 2, also told him that Sony is working on the detachable disc drive PS5 to replace the current model, due to release in 2023, and PS5 Pro, due to release in 2024. He leaked both the streaming handheld and the new wireless headset before Sony announced them. I mean so far Tom Henderson has nailed his PS5 hardware leaks. He has expanded his involvement in the gaming community by producing content on his own YouTube channel and Twitch channel. After years of supporting the site, he was brought on in 2010 as a junior analyst, working his way up to lead analyst in 2012 and taking over the hardware estimates in 2017. The new PS5 model "doesn't seem like there are any major hardware changes from the original console" and the removable "disc drive likely won't be compatible with the current digital version."Ī life-long and avid gamer, William D'Angelo was first introduced to VGChartz in 2007. The detachable disc drive will be connected to the PlayStation using an extra USB-C port on the back of the console. The biggest difference according to that report is the new PS5 will have a detachable disc drive. The New PS5 will replace the current iterations and will have nearly identical hardware to the current consoles on the market. Insider Gaming's Tom Henderson has previously reported the PlayStation 5 will be getting an overhaul with a new model set to launch around September 2023. "PlayStation likewise sells a less expensive Digital Edition for $399.99, and is expected to release a PlayStation 5 Slim later this year at the same reduced price point." In fact, the entry-level versions of the current Xbox and Switch are offered at the same price point ($299.99), and the Xbox Series S is sold for $50 less than the Switch OLED model ($349.99). "Equally important, the FTC’s analysis considers only the high-end models of Xbox (Series X) and PlayStation (Standard Edition), thereby ignoring the differentiation within Xbox’s console lines. To begin with, 'he Supreme Court has repeatedly held that a price differential alone is insufficient to infer two separate product markets.' "The FTC contends that Xbox and PlayStation constitute a market of two because they are offered at a similar price," reads the document. Microsoft is expecting Sony to release a PlayStation 5 Slim model later this year and thinks it could have the same price point of the current PS5 Digital Edition of $399.99, according to documents filed by Microsoft as part of the FTC vs Microsoft hearing and spotted by The Verge.
