Here’s when Sony will likely reveal the PS5 price, release date

PlayStation fans shouldn’t have to wait too much longer for PS5 details.

Microsoft revealed its Xbox Series S and announced the price points ($299/$499) for its two next-generation consoles earlier this week, and PlayStation fans are starting to run out of patience with the expected release window only a couple of months away.

Fortunately, Sony has announced a PlayStation 5 showcase event set for Wednesday, September 16th. In its announcement, Sony did not confirm that the PS5 release date and price will be revealed during the event, expected to be 40 minutes long – but it seems exceedingly likely that all will be revealed, particularly after the Xbox announcements put pressure on Sony.

The PS5 digital showcase will air at 4:00 p.m. ET on Wednesday, Sept. 16th on Twitch and YouTube.

Via PlayStation.com:

“Before PlayStation 5 launches this holiday, we wanted to give you one more look at some of the great games coming to PS5 at launch (and beyond!).

Our next digital showcase will weigh in at around 40 minutes, and feature updates on the latest titles from Worldwide Studios and our world-class development partners.”
