Sony Might Be Secretly Planning To Release The PlayStation 5 Much Earlier Than Expected

Tech news site T3 says that Sony is looking to get in ahead of the Xbox Two, codenamed ‘Xbox Scarlett’, by releasing the PS5 as soon as Christmas 2019.
The theory was first posted by Michael Pachter, the world’s foremost gaming analyst, who has a great track record of predicting industry movements. Rumours suggest that PS5 development kits have been doing the rounds for months now.
And now respected gaming industry analyst Hideki Yasuda, who works for the Osaka-based firm Ace Economic Research Institute, has backed up the claim that Sony is planning a sneak attack on its competition.
In a recent report, Yasuda said he believes that, "the introduction of the PS5 will be at the end of 2019".
Which likely points to a November release date, just in time for the holiday season. It would also give Sony a year’s head-start on Microsoft – that is, if we don’t see a surprise early release for the Xbox, too.

According to a translation of the institute’s report by website DualShockers, MLCCs are being used in so many devices at the moment – particularly 5G smartphones and cars – that manufacturers can’t keep up with demand.

this is probably why the last of us part 2 hasn't gotten a release date yet.

Yeah I said this in the earlier rumor thread, TLOU2 is launching with the PS5. It makes so much sense.

We didn't shite enough on your first PS5 rumor thread?
Posted on 8/24/18 at 2:41 pm to UltimateHog
But will it actually play games at 60 fps?

Even in that thread we all said 2020 would be the earliest.
So this says Christmas 2019
what a bold theory

I work for a tech company that builds devices and capacitor shortages are real. We have had leading vendors send us videos they sent to all their customers explaining the shortage and hoping they can keep up. This was one of the larger providers in the world. Im sure Sony is very high on the list but this definitely could be an issue

I was thinking Holidays 2020, but Holidays 2019 is a huge difference.

If anything I bet it launches and does what TLOU and GTA 5 did. In that line of thinking I bet RDR2 has an updated version as well, it would follow the same trend. Why not make double the money on the games?
You have the ps4 version come out first then re-release it on the ps5.
TLOU and GTA V would have both been killer apps for the PS4 and they released them on PS3 anyway. And it made them a shite ton more money than it would have on just exclusively to one console.
You know they took note of that and learned from it.
I'd bet on it.

Yeah I agree, I was going to edit my post to say that actually.
Release it summer 2019, create all the buzz and sales, then re-release later that year with a PS5 superior version/bundles.
That makes a lot of sense as well.

Don't waste time explaining the real world to UH. We all have run out of breath.

So 2020. This date is fine.

I highly doubt this.
It all hinges on Xbox getting back into the game with some great launch exclusives for the next Gen.

Then your post makes no sense, there is a reason I specifically quoted it from the 2nd article.
Posted on 8/24/18 at 3:19 pm to UltimateHog
It is one of those click bait articles that gives itself an out if it doesn't come true.
The whole thing is stupid. Just like every rumor thread you bring here.
