New PS5 Advert Officially Revealed

I'm hungary for more PS5 news.

Let's all try to hype something not worth hyping (as with pretty much everything that is being hyped anyway).
Noone needs a new console until later next year (you know, when the good and interesting projects will come out or even are announced)

Still waiting for the next PS event .. zzzzzz

But still no price!

Look forward for more PS5 news. I believe it comes soon.

This is a sign that the PS5 teardown event we've all been waiting for is very close...and i'm very excited for it!

If this sort of stuff is starting to sneak out / leak, then there's clearly an announcement imminent. I hope we get the teardown, UI demo, price, launch date and launch line-up soon.

It will be cool if we can preorder ps5 in early september and get it at the end of september / early october

@get2sammyb and it's done incredibly well, even breaking several records, so I think people are worrying over nothing.

Is that you project Athia?

@get2sammyb indeed, didn't harm Nintendo too much, but they received some flak for it. I'm cutting both Microsoft and Sony way more slack personally because of global events, but I get the frustrations.

Safe to assume its October they will tell us about price and release date 😆

Not the best but not bad either. Sony’s PlayStation TV ads have never been that grest anyway.

and to think on this day 7 years ago we learned the price of the PS4 and when it was to be released.

Come on Sony we need more!!

I'm more excited for a few upcoming PS4 games than the PS5 at the moment. I will be buzzing on the day when that brand spanking new glorious white behemoth is under my TV, though.

Nice. I Like it.

@Hrx11
I had the same thought that it's a mix between the UE5 demo and Project Athia 🤔

This teaser trailer would have been appropriate in June, but not “leaking“ out late-August. Sony won’t even tell us when we get to learn more. It would not surprise me if we conclude August with no additional information. Whether you think that is indicative of a delay or not, this is a weird shift from previous generations. I think it sucks.

@LN78
I'm not impatient for them to announce first a pricey Console. I'd rather they wait for Ms and then possibly price it accordingly.
Nope, no rush

I see we’re all just ignoring artelous’ ***** post then... fair enough. Carry on then lol.

Can’t wait to get my hands on the ps5 this November 😁

@LN78 it doesn’t necessarily mean that at all; it’s much more likely they’re trying to get the price advantage.

@LN78
Definitely. I also think Ms xbox SS is throwing even more uncertainty and I would absolutely be waiting if I was Sony

@LN78 I agree. Hopefully we hear something soon. I need to know how much I need to sit aside for the console plus games.

@LN78 yeah, I don’t think they’re really worried about the series s if it exists.

I struggle to understand why people are that bothered about the price at this stage. We’ve known it’s coming for quite some time so the opportunity to save up has been there. Don’t get me wrong, I’d love to know the price, but it’s not a deal breaker for me. I overestimated at £600 and saved that over the past few months so I’m ready. Now it’s a question of will I be able to afford a game in that bracket too...

@Artelous If no one buys the console your second year awesomeness won't happen so let's stop beating this drum.

It's the same drum people who primarily buy pre owned games beat. If no one buys at release there is no success.

#day1 #ps5 #hatersgonnahate

@Midgar777 Because money is important. I can throw £2k-3k at a system but never would. With £600 I would want the console, extra pad and a game.

As for the general population the average wage for employed people under 30 is under 25k. Approx £1700 take home pay after tax, asking for £600 is a big ask during a recession to this group of people.

Basically, no new information.

Since it's an insanely slow news week, I expect one Push Square article for every developer testimony about the adaptive triggers and haptic feedback =P

"Welcome to a world where you know the price and when pre-orders start"

Welcome me to that world Sony... waiting outside, with cash 😀

@Midgar777 my thoughts exactly. While I would love to know ever single little detail its not the end of the world. We've known this was coming for over a year now. There was plenty of time to save up if someone was fixated on getting it at launch.

Neat commercial. Cant wait to get my hands on that sexy Dual Sense!!

I feel bad for the Hungarian YouTube person. Do we think they got sent home for the day? It's stressful enough when I upload a video to the company YT account, and we have about 2 subscribers...

No release date, price, or many of the other things we’ve been waiting for but they release a freaking commercial! What the hell?

I don't think any producer of goods should be expected to take a loss. I just want to know price is as close to cost as possible while allowing profit.

As for the video it did a great job of giving you that feel of immersion the PS5 has.

The immersive aspects sound cool, but how many third party developers will actually take the time to utilize them? The DS4 touchpad and internal speaker didn't get that much utilization. When they did, it was really cool...but that was far and few between.

Someone at PlayStation Hungary is getting a stern talking to before the day is out.

@get2sammyb How is this the first time I've heard/read this argument about the Switch's price/release date. Great argument, if true, and telling that this isn't abnormal. They will sell out regardless of price and date, so why put a price and date out when you might have to modify it later.

It's pretty good 😃

@themcnoisy yeah that’s a fair point. I think most people know whether they want it at launch or not, so asking them to save £50 a month for a console isn’t too difficult? If the price reveal is the true deciding factor as to whether you get it at launch (perhaps because you’ve not saved in advance), then it’s more important to know, but even the tightest of budgets can make this happen with a bit of forward planning. I’m only optimistic because I’ve saved already, if I hadn’t, then a £600 console would screw me over and I’d have to wait.

@redd214 100%

Looks rubbish.

Whats wrong with using good old fashion gameplay footage in adverts instead of CGI???????

@RBMango Called that one

To be honest this is a fancy trailer that could be about anything if you didn’t have the PlayStation logo on it. The fact there is no direct references to games makes me feel like we may see a few more game delays before the thing is released.

@phil_j As much as I like this site, the quantity of articles per announcement tend to go somewhat overboard.

@Midgar777 Kind of, you and me both are clearly looking forward to it - so £600 for console, pad and game seems reasonable.

To a less enthusiastic gamer with a limited budget - will probably wait. They won't have funds set aside for a keynote in our calenders.

Another analogy. I can literally go the shop and pick up a switch as an impulse purchase £269 and grab a game for maybe £300 all in. If the PS5 is £600 we'll it's expensive. There won't be many people who could afford to impulse purchase the unit.

Parents with a £500 budget per kid for Xmas would be out. (sorry any kids Santa is your parents). And I will be honest with a family of gamers, I wouldn't put a preorder in for the Series X for my son if it's over £500.

So they have to tread carefully with the pricing. My bets are on £450 without the Blu Ray and maybe £525 with it.

@themcnoisy I don't think they'll want to go over £500 unless they're certain that MS is (hence this price non-reveal silliness) so I'm going for £499 and £429 for digital edition, possibly even £399.

"Feel more"?? Sounds like an advertisement for condoms.

Has an official launch line up been announced?

@Artelous Ill be the judge of that and im hyped. 😆 👌

@themcnoisy €500 budget per kid? Ok i had too be happy if it was a €100.

I think it's a mediocre if not poor ad that should have focused on real gameplay, rather than CGI of a non-game. One thing in particular that bothered me was the voice was mixed far too low and was quite unclear in places, with several words difficult to make out. I'd say it's a C- at best.

Sony is really beating the Dualsense to death at this point...like holy cow we get it! Just show the UI already please.

Tentacle creature breakup up from the ice... I can totally picture that happening in a Horizon game. Probably need to find the sub-zero armor first.

@LN78 @get2sammyb I believe the pandemic also may have an impact on how early Sony can land the final and (for them) most accurate price on this product, since all lines of businesses are shifting from day to day in this day and age.
