Yes, you have read correctly and no, we have not made a mistake. It would be Microsoft (its rival) who would have announced the launch of a new PlayStation 5 model, the slim, by Sony for the end of this year.

Let’s see what would be the approximate date of this next release and the main features that this new console, so awaited by many, would bring.

PS5 Slim

That Sony was preparing it was something we all knew. As has been the custom for a couple of decades, the brand usually brings a Slim model to the market some time later of their own consoles, at a lower price and with a smaller size. Something that many (including myself) look forward to, since they are much more comfortable to transport or store and you also save money if you are not in a hurry to buy it.

The issue is that we did not have any kind of information regarding it, and the fact that this model has been the one that has had the most stock problems in its entire history made us doubt, even more so, that a new version was going to come out soon, we didn’t expect it so fast.

Everything has come to light thanks to a public document from Microsoft where it shows it. you got it here In case you want to see it for yourselves, but I will summarize the part where I would say it.

»PlayStation also sells a cheaper digital edition for $399.99, and is expected to release a PlayStation 5 Slim at the end of the year at the same reduced price».

That is, according to its competition (which they know something that we don’t, obviously) the PS5 Slim would arrive at the end of this year and Your announcement would be made around the month of September. A good marketing strategy thinking regarding times like Black Friday and later, and more interesting, Christmas.

Insider Tom Henderson already commented that a new console would come out thinner and lighter with a modular drive. We do not know if he was referring to this release, but everything indicates that he was partly right.

That is why everything adds up and it is more than likely true and we will see this new model in less than we expect. If this is the case and there are only a couple more months left for its presentation, the rumors and leaks will not be long in coming and we are sure that it will not be the last news regarding it this month.

Now we need to see and wait for Sony to rule, and everything indicates that if they do not say anything, we will be right, it always happens and as the saying explains, “who is silent, grants.”

Will they surprise us with the price? Will it bring any new feature never seen before? Will your launch be done without stock problems? More colors? Will Microsoft get something with their XBOXes to counterattack?

There are many unresolved questions that we have, but as of today there is no way to answer them, so nothing, we are going to turn on the normal PS5 and play a little while we wait for news regarding it. As I say, they will not be long in coming.
