Sony has said its next big PS5 even will take place on September 16. It is thought this event will showcase some of the exclusive games that will be available at launch.
The 40-minute showcase is purely digital, and will feature update from some of Sony’s development partners and Worldwide Studios.
The company will also release the exact launch date for its next-gen console. Sony has opened pre-registration for pre-orders last month, however no one knows exactly when the console will arrive.
This year, Sony will be launching two versions of the PS5. One will come with an Ultra HD Blue-Ray disc drive, and the other will be purely digital.
This matches up with similar announcements made by Sony’s biggest competitior in gaming, Microsoft Xbox. It recently uveiled its Xbox Series X and Series S consoles. They will be on sale November 10.
The PS5 event will be livestreamed on Twitch and YouTube on Wednesday, September 16 at PM Pacific Time (which will be at 10AM UAE time the following day).
