In case you were still suspicious of the presumed PlayStation 5 development kit shots that have been doing the rounds across the internet these past couple of months, one more leak may tip you over into becoming a believer. That's right, even more images of the console developers are using across the globe to make PS5 games on have made their way onto the net, but they come from a rather unlikely source.
As you can see in the Facebook post below, which was then shared on ResetEra, a cleaner doing the rounds assumedly after-hours snapped a couple of pictures and posted them to the social media website. "Please do not share this" they begged, but this is the internet so that was never going to happen. Get a load of the shots for yourself below.
This PS5 devkit retains the unusual shape we've come to see time and time again from these leaks, with a V-shaped hole at the front along with blue text spelling out some all-important networking details. The controller once again looks very similar to the PlayStation 4's current DualShock pad, which lines up with what Wired detailed when the website saw the machine for itself in person last year. Don't forget that the PS5 expected to hit store shelves at the end of 2020 is very unlikely to resemble what you see above -- it's just a machine developers use to produce their titles on.
What do you make of the PS5 development kit? Do you hope Sony actually retains the design? Let us know in the comments below.

Wait, am I understanding this correctly? They have to hire a cleaner, to clean the dev kit?? Am I gonna have to hire a cleaner to clean my PS5??
Do people really risk their jobs for pics of something we already know it's real? I mean, the devs from that office will instantly recognize the desk.
The sticks look a lot lower right? Same level as the buttons. Or is it me?
@NYJetsfan123
You got to be naive to believe what hes saying haha it's obviously irony.
@JJ2
I think the sarcasm flew right over your head
@Athrum occasional cleaner subcontracted by some large firm that Ubisoft hire on the regular, doubt he cares less personally.
@NYJetsfan123
Not your but the article and a lot of people I'm sure. I know your being sarcastic haha
also a new leak about hardware of PS5 hit internet recently that says:
1. CPU clock speed is 3.2
2. GPU has 14.2 TF + 72 CU core + 64 shader core + 1.55 clock (actually i think it will be on "NAVI 21" chips that we know is a high-end Navi chip= more powerful than rx2080)
3. it has 2 Tb SSD
4. they hasn't determined RAM value yet, but it will be 16 or 24 GDDR6
all this takes is a 3d printer to make it look real so a grain of salt honestly.
I personally think the dev kit looks dope as s*** but that's just my opinion
Language please - Quintumply
@parvaz1
72 CUs... Extremely hard to believe.
@makina yeah, but if it be on "Navi 21" (a special Navi generation that will allow AMD to put more than 68 CU core on its chips) then it can be true...
but as you said for a console it can't be true, because a high-end graphics chip from AMD hasn't made until now (base Navi-gen) and they plan to put it on sale for second half of 2020!
I'm just really interested to see the final design.
@parvaz1 that information is actually from pastebin last year, i think June. I doubt it is right, but hope it is though. It also says something about it being a dual 36 compute unit Gpu, maybe for backwards compatibilty. Kind of like how ps4 pro is a dual ps4 Gpu. The devkit actually looks like it has two Gpus on either side, lol. I've also heard chiplet design mentiond a few times, but I've no idea what that means to be honest
Just bought a Pro like an absolute idiot so looks like Iβll be a while before buying a PS5 π
Itβs pretty ugly but itβs a dev kit and itβs not important.
Sony donβt have a history of particularly ugly or awkward looking systems.
Nintendo and Xbox have had a few shockers though!
The guy is stupid to risk his job over this.
@nessisonett you can trade it in 11 months or so!
Just launch the thing so I can buy it π
Hm i dont think he reallly a cleaner....
Post the picture on social media. Please don't share this. Does not compute...
@JJ2 Lmao. That is π― a Dev that has picked up a cleaning cloth to take the pic π
I like how Sony made it a V shape. As in V (Roman numeral) for 5...
@NYJetsfan123 Or they are just lazy. π
@Arnna Im not trading in my MHW PS4 Pro.
@NYJetsfan123 this is all a joke by sony
@nessisonett
I'm in the same boat as you but just like Neolit said: it's a great time to buy a Pro, lots of great games to choose from and the prices are falling the fastest they've ever fallen. Do get a 4K TV (if you haven't got one yet) with HDR to be able to appreciate it in its full glory. I got one for Christmas and it really makes a difference (especially HDR).
@parvaz1 wasn't the leak a 9.2 tflop gpu at 36 cu?
As long as they find a way to allow the system not to overheating and get all up in yo' face with the cooling fans. Something Sony failed with miserably this generation across 3 different models.
@Arnna Very stupid...
I don't believe it. He uses emojis.
@carlos82 - that's an older leak. 36CUs@2Ghz = 9.2 tflops, but using 1.55Ghz, that's 7.1tflops, but there'll be two of them (similar to how the PS4pro works) for a total of 72CUs @ 14.2tflops. those reports were from last summer. i doubt either of them are true, to be honest. i'm surprised the internet hasn't sunk with all these leaks...
The latest rumor now is that the ps5 will be able to play all games from ps1 to ps4 and even be able to read physical discs of old games, using a 'Remastering engine' (grain of salt taken but it's interesting)
https://www.pscp.tv/w/1MnxnEkAEWdJO
there's a video of a fan-made concept of what the final console could look like if it was based on the devkit design, and it actually looks pretty good imo. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z_HuAa5fTqY
There is a rumour you can use your PS4 controllers on PS5. π
The guy tweeting "prototype", "PS5" and "do not share this" and trying to make people believe he's in a Ubisoft office. I'll believe it when I see something official. I just hope the definitive PS5 is as ugly as this so called prototype
'Please do not share this'?!?! Someone actually said that online??? How dumb Anyway I quite like the look of that PS5 Dev kit now. Better looking than that BORING Xbox Tower thing
Bored.. Move on. Wait for real PS5 console and everything.
a cleaner, suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuure, lmao!
none of it is what we will be taking home launch day even the specs change so ...
I love the design of the system itself and that's why I'm pretty sure Sony will nix that one and simply add another layer onto the already square pancake π₯ design of the Playstation 4/4 Pro. ππ
@The_ghostmen
Hey I could see Cory do something like this and then show off a demo at AMD conference haha
EDIT
Or or.. maybe at NVIDIA conference haha
If i can dump any ps disc in this mutha regardless of the number associated TAKE MY MONEY. Something about putting chrono cross in my ps5 sound dope
Oh and wws and all thatπππ Sony gearin up to make ps5 the real article. All John Candy like
@gollumb82
I've a pro but I don't have a 4k TV. The standard PS4 slim has HDR as well.
