Here's a potentially interesting little story: Sony has added a PlayStation 5 page to its official PlayStation website, playstation.com. The page itself doesn't have much meat to it, but it does feature the previously revealed PS5 logo alongside text that reads "PlayStation 5 is coming. Launches holiday 2020".
It continues: "We've begun to share some of the incredible features you can expect from PlayStation 5, but we're not quite ready to fully unveil the next generation of PlayStation. Sign up below to be among the first to receive updates as we announce them, including news on the PS5 release date, PS5 price and the upcoming roster of PS5 launch games."
Based on data that we've pulled from the site, this page was published, or at least heavily modified, earlier today (4th February 2020). Now, we're not saying that this is anything to immediately get excited about, but given all the February reveal event rumours and the recent PS5 trademarks, it's another small detail that suggests Sony is gearing up for something.
The page says Sony isn't "quite ready" to "fully" reveal the next-gen system, but that could mean anything at this point. The bottom line is that PS5 news is obviously coming -- it's just a question of how and when.

Excited because we might finally get concrete information soon, terrified because this "soon" could actually mean as far back as May and Greg Miller could be right on the money 😭
Is this the first time they've put "holiday 2020" in writing?
I know they've talked about PS5 a lot, and maybe "this year" or "2020" but I can't recall them being as specific as "holiday 2020" before.
Well that's 1 less thing they need to cover, just need an actual date now, which will almost surely be mid-November.
@rjejr we've known holiday 2020 for a while now, since October.
I find it interesting that they intend to release the console around the holidays this year, but they did not even revealed it "fully".
I mean, most high profile developers usually show gameplay from their projects well before its release. And i assume this console "should" "launch" with a few next gen games.... Soo... whats taking so long with the proper announcement?
@AbsurdShark It's no different to how PS4 was really. We knew nothing of the games releasing past September. Publishers can't really show their games till it's properly revealed.
I can't sign up for it.
Surely there's some exclaimatory statement that can Express my joy...
Never mind, it's working now.
So it begins
@KnightRider1982 Yes, it took a bit for the email address box to pop up for me too. The website froze temporarily when I submitted the info. Maybe the page is getting a lot of traffic?
@Bluetrain7 @KnightRider1982 I’m not getting any box to sign up either. Will keep checking though, like you say it might be getting huge amounts of requests.
'isn't "quite ready" to "fully'
I agree. Some people have their usual bad take thinking that means no news for a while. A reveal never intended to be comprehensive in the first place. I think very soon
You'd alsmost think they're thinking about making the Ps5.
@AbsurdShark
Ps4 was fully revealed only at E3
There's no box to sign up? Looking at the comments, I'm glad to see I'm not the only one. Hyped though. I can't wait for this reveal to happen.
@redd214 Thanks. Found the article. That I commented on. That I didn't remember. B/c my memory is swiss cheese.
No US sign up yet that I can find
EVERYBODY STAY CALM.
It's coming....PS5 is imminent... wallet sweating
Update: I got the box to enter my email right after my last post. However I have tried submitting about 10 times since and it keeps timing out. Demand must be very high.
What the freck sony. Why do I need to sign up? I already have a ps account shouldn't they just email all ps users anyway?
i think i will wait until pushsquare.com announce the ps5 news. i just dont like blasting my email everywhere.
@AbsurdShark Which means we're getting a ton of game announcements this year, and I'm cool with that.
No sign up box
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
still keeping us waiting, this one...
@darksoul77 Didn't it occur to you this is for people that don't have a PSN accoint yet, potentially new customers, and current customers will get more info automatically?
I just got a brand new Nintendo Switch. At least I have the entire year to save for PS5. Not to mention we can always sell the PS4 to get some extra money for PS5. =)
The brazilian PlayStation site also has this subscription page to know more.
@Matroska
Ikr
People complain about anything. We ll all be reading the relevant news here at pushsquare before we get email updates anyway.
@Matroska no it didn't cause Im a big selfish boo whoo.
The 'sign up' box isn't working.
That is not the only thing that will be coming to ;-o
For me the page is loading, but there's no sign-up option on it. I guess they're disabling it occasionally due to demand. I've been trying off and on since yesterday, but no luck yet.
Where is the link? No link in the article and I just looked on playstation.com its not there. I looked just about under every section.
@PMasterTy9 and anyone else still having trouble getting the sign-up box to appear...
https://www.playstation.com/en-gb/explore/ps5/
It may help if you sign out of your account if you're logged in on the browser.
The sign-up form repeatedly failed to load for me in Chrome, but I loaded it up in Opera where I'm not signed in to PSN and the form appeared first time. Two days later and it still isn't appearing for me in Chrome.
Hello guys but can anyone help me with signing in? I entered my email address and re-entered it on "confirm email address" box, i also entered the correct birth date, but it says that my entered email is wrong(That doesn't look right. Please enter your correct email address.)
