Sony made an important statement about PlayStation in recent months. The company announced that Jim Ryan, who has been the CEO of the gaming division Sony Interactive Entertainment since 2019, will retire in March 2024. Ryan had been with Sony for 30 years.
The company organized a farewell party for the famous businessman as PlayStation CEO prepared to leave his post. At the party, Ryan was also given a gift that would make gamers drool.
PlayStation 1-looking PlayStation 5 was gifted to Jim Ryan
Sony gifted Ryan a one-of-a-kind console. In the image shared by a Sony employee named Yuichi Haga, it was seen that this console was a PlayStation 5 disguised as a PlayStation 1.
The gift console will touch those who once owned a PS1 and truly say, “I wish it were mine.” The kind that will make you say. The Dualsense controller is equipped with the Dualshock 1 design and looks amazing. In addition, its colors, those iconic big-tip connection cables and other details are reminiscent of the original PlayStation.
There is only one specially designed PlayStation 5 for now. It is not known for now whether Sony has plans to offer this popular PS5 for sale. However, in 2014, the company offered a limited edition PS4 with traces of the original console for the 20th anniversary of PlayStation. We’ll wait and see if something like this is done for PS5.
