In an interview with Gamesbeat, Yoshida stated that the life of the console generations is increasingly prolonged, and he mentioned about the effects of future generation consoles. Yoshida pointed out that the console cycles are increasingly prolonged, said: “The last cycle lasted seven years. If this period is seven years, we will see the new console in 2027. The next PlayStation seems to be more accurate for me.

Yoshida, Microsoft’s “2028 plan” refers to the relevant leaks, the new Xbox console can be released in the same period, he said.

COVİD-19 AND EFFECTS

Yoshida, the slowdown of growth in the game industry with excessive recruitment and dismissal of the sector, this situation, this situation thinks that the COVİD-19 epidemic is an extreme reaction, he said. Former manager, “including ourselves, companies have invested a lot. Then we had to face the reality and adjust. Covid years, you will get a smoother growth over the years,” he said.

It is still unclear when the game industry will get rid of the effects of the Covid-19 and when it can return to a stable growth. However, Yoshida’s predictions generally seem reasonable. A similar cycle can also be seen in the transition from Nintendo Switch to Nintendo Switch 2. In short, it seems certain that you can use your PS5 console for a few more years.
