The more we learn about the PlayStation 5, the more it becomes obvious that Sony is not simply willing to retread old ground. While the next-gen console will retain the hallmarks of what made the PlayStation 4 a success, the Japanese giant is moving in some bold new directions, introducing hardware specifically designed to change the way we play.
For boss Jim Ryan, it will be transformative for games. “DualSense marks a radical departure from our previous controller offerings and captures just how strongly we feel about making a generational leap with PS5,” he said on the PlayStation Blog. “The new controller, along with the many innovative features in PS5, will be transformative for games – continuing our mission at PlayStation to push the boundaries of play, now and in the future.”
Ryan also took a moment to reiterate that PS5 will release Holiday 2020, and that it will showcase the console design soon. “We look forward to sharing more information about PS5, including the console design, in the coming months,” he concluded.

It’s getting quite close now to release, you’d like to think they’d show off more sooner rather than later.
Can’t wait to get my preorder locked in! Assuming the world hasn’t ended, of course.
'We look forward to sharing more information about PS5, including the console design, in the coming months."
But but the rumours said it will take one more year to redesign it like an amazon delivery box....
I really hope the PS5 actual design is completely different with the developer kits model.
And i need more Kiddie games on PS5.
@Anti-Matter Id love if it was almost the exact same.
Air pulling in from the center and blows out through the sides.
I do think the design will be based on devkit, but smaller and more streamlined and the vent won't be as deep.
This article literally doesn't say anything. It's highly vague speculation. 'Transformative' could mean anything...
How many articles on one controller reveal? 😂
God forbid when the actual console gets revealed, there will be 3 months non stop dedicated to each individual grill and edge of the box
I'm not complaining though, can never get enough news about our Japanese Giant😉
@GADG3Tx87 "Literally doesn't say anything" is a bit harsh, it's at least 200 words.
@LN78 I Second this!
It's strange we haven't seen the design yet.
@LN78 I think you're probably right. It's understandable that this whole thing could affect both consoles plans
@Anti-Matter I'm hoping the DualSense design gives us a hint of what it looks like.
Hoping the lighting around the touch pad hints at that cool looking intake for air on the dev kit.
If Sony refines the design similar to the DS it could look really nice.
The dynamic clocks based on boosting for the demanding workloads would certainly help Sony keep the form factor in check.
