Sony will introduce a compact version of the PlayStation 5 with a removable drive before the end of 2023. In this respect informs The eXputer version that references the materials of the US Federal Trade Commission (FTC) court case against the merger of Microsoft and Activision Blizzard.
According to materials submitted to the court by Microsoft, Sony’s new set-top box will be called the PlayStation 5 Slim and will have a thinner body and a removable drive. According to the IT giant, the announcement and release of the device will take place before the end of 2023. The novelty will take its place on store shelves with a price tag of $ 399 (about 36,000 rubles at the exchange rate of 4 July 2023).
eXputer considers the declared cost of the device “unexpected”. The truth is, Sony is selling the PlayStation 5 Digital Edition driverless for the same $399. The emergence of a new device in a series with the same price tags will question the positioning of the old device.
Citing the rumors, eXputer writes that in 2024 Sony will completely stop releasing current versions of the PlayStation 5. So the Slim version will replace the Digital Edition on the market and the unannounced Pro model with a driver that will be an alternative to the base PlayStation 5.
