Leading names of the video game world; Microsoft and Sony launched brand new game consoles in 2020. Yes, we are talking about PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S. In a few months, it will be exactly 3 years since the release of these consoles. So when are these consoles going to be “obsolete”?
Sony released the PlayStation 4 in 2013. In other words, there was a period of 7 years between PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5. Similarly, Xbox One was also released in 2013. As such, you may be thinking that there will be a 7-year difference between Microsoft and Sony’s next generation consoles. If you have such an opinion, you are not wrong. Because Microsoft thinks the same as you.
According to Microsoft, the new Xbox and PlayStation 6 will be released in 2028!
In the hearing of the lawsuit filed by Sony after Microsoft wanted to buy Call of Duty developer Activision for $ 68 billion, some statements came from Microsoft on the subject. In the statement, which is among the court files, it was stated that the next generation Xbox and PlayStation 6 are expected to be released in 2028.
As a matter of fact, this was not surprising. Because a few months ago, the UK reviewed Microsoft’s acquisition of Activision and shared a few documents about it. In those shared documents, it was stated that Sony did not think before 2027 for the PlayStation 6. At the last point we have come to, we can now look for certain that both the next generation Xbox and PlayStation 6 will be released in 2028.
