PS4 to be still supported once PS5 comes out
The PS5 is slated to arrive in this year. With that in mind, many have wondered on whether Sony will still provide support to the previous gen console, especially when Sony aims to push previous gen gamers to the new console (once it releases).
The news was revealed by SIE CEO, Jim Ryan where he states that there’s still demand for the current-gen console. Here’s exactly what he has said:
We have always felt that we had a responsibility to serve that community (PS4) for several years after the launch of PS5, and that it represented a huge business opportunity for us.
