The PS5 is in the starting blocks! According to a console-compatible accessory that appeared on Amazon, the PlayStation 5 would hit the market on November 19, 2020, a few days after Microsoft's Xbox Series X and S entered the scene.
Microsoft drew first! A few days ago, the American firm revealed the price and release date of the Xbox Series X and its little sister, the Xbox Series S. The two next gen consoles will be released on November 10, 2020. All eyes are now on Sony. After several weeks of radio silence, the Japanese firm should soon announce the price and release date of the PS5.

Launch 9 days after the release of the xbox?
Meanwhile, a new leak on Amazon's UK site has offered a new clue as to the launch date of the PlayStation 5 on the market. Designed by a brand called "Floating Grip," the accessory simply secures the console to the wall. In the coming months, gadgets of this ilk will multiply on the market.
On the product page, we can read that the wall support will be available on Amazon UK from 19 November 2020. There is a good chance that the seller will market the accessory for the launch of the console in the UK market. The date of November 19 is consistent with Sony's announcements and habits. A few months ago, the Japanese brand promised to launch the PS5 before "the holiday season of the end of the year 2020". Moreover, it is hard to imagine Sony leaving the field open to Microsoft for a long time.
On the price side, Sony is expected to market PS5 at higher prices than new Xboxes. According to the latest leaks, the PS5 Digital Edition will be sold for 499 euros, 200 euros more than the Xbox Series S. The version equipped with a disc player would be offered at 599 euros, or 100 euros more than the Xbox Series X. We'll tell you more as soon as possible.
