I heard a while ago that there was likely to be a show in August for the PlayStation and that the plan was to unveil the Slim there. Maybe they are going to fight early Xbox / ABK news? https://t.co/8sqyO8gnyx

If Nick’s information is indeed correct, Sony has pre-planned a second event for Augustany It is possible that this will be done earlier. The interesting thing is how The leakers all seem to agree that the PS5 Slim is on the horizon.

In particular, trusted journalist Tom Henderson, who confirmed the presence of sources within Sony, after revealing the new portable PlayStation Project Q, commented on these latest rumors, saying:

I don’t know anything about the recent PlayStation Slim rumors and when they will be revealed.

Logically, with a September release, a reveal soon makes sense. As for whether or not it will be called “Slim”, I’m inclined to think it will simply be called PS5 and carry the branding of a streamlined model. From what I understand, this new model will completely replace the current PlayStation 5, with the last units hitting shelves by the end of the year.

So Henderson confirms, once again, that Sony is planning to release one A new version of the PS5, which will hit the shelves in September. If you’re not familiar with his previous leaks, they want Sony to ditch the two versions of the PS5 (regular and digital) and instead offer just one that can be optionally upgraded with a removable disc reader if the user so desires. In practice, the new PS5 will be a variant of the PS5 Digital Edition but will be able to get Blu-ray playback capability for players with retail sets.

Now, Henderson has added that The PS5 Slim will likely be the same price as the PS5 Digital Editionwhile pointing out From the images of the prototypes he’s seen, the console won’t be “thin” and will have different dimensions.
