PS5 Leak allegedly reveals price, Release date, game etc

The PS5 rumor cycle has reached a tipping point, and it appears that we have one of the biggest leaks regarding Sony's next-generation game console. A prominent PlayStation forecaster has sent out a flood of tweets that may include the console's price, release date, and game lineup.

Twitter user IronManPS5 (via BGR) has stirred up the PS5 area again with a series of bold claims about Sony's new system. Most notably, the PS5 will be available on November 20 for $499, with the PS5 Digital Edition going for $399.

According to IronManPS5, the November 20 release date for the PS5 is in line with the release date of the PS1 dual analog controller, which was first released in Japan on November 20, 1997. While it seems odd that Sony would tie the launch of the PS5 to a specific classic controller, the PS5's innovative new "DualSense" controller is one of the console's major selling points.

The user also revealed the prices of several PS5 accessories, including a HD camera for $69.99 and a Pulse 3D Wireless Headset for $159. He also claims that the next generation PlayStation VR 2 is coming and will be backward compatible with all existing PlayStation VR games.The new PlayStation Move controller for PSVR 2 will feature haptic feedback found in the DualSense controller and adaptive It is claimed to implement adaptive triggering.

There are some interesting claims about the PS5 hardware, including that only 700 GB of the PS5's 825 GB hard drive will be accessible, with 175 GB reserved for system software.

IronManPS5 also mentions a group of PS4 titles that will reportedly utilize the PS5's boost mode at launch, including "The Last of Us Part II," "Resident Evil 2," and "Ghost of Tsushima." It also suggests that new "Sonic," "Need for Speed," and "Battlefield" games will be released by next year, as well as a new game from Naughty Dog, the developer of "Uncharted" and "The Last of Us."

As with the flood of unofficial information on Twitter, it is worth being skeptical of these "leaks"; IronManPS5 has targeted some of the titles that will be announced at Sony's Future of Gaming Event on June 11 It has a proven track record. However, it has been wrong many times, such as when it falsely stated that the PS5 would be priced and available for pre-order in mid-July.

It is also worth pointing out that some of the IronManPS5 "leaks" are simply common sense. This series of tweets from a Twitter user includes claims that titles such as "Fortnite," "Madden NFL 21," "Warframe," and "Apex Legends" will launch on PS5, and these have been confirmed by their respective publishers These have been confirmed by their respective publishers. It has also been confirmed that titles such as "The Last of Us Part II" and "Ghost of Tsushima" will be released on PS5 hardware.

For what it's worth, IronManPS5's claimed November 20 price and release date, $499/$399, is likely not that far off from what we will actually get. November 20 is the last Friday before Black Friday, a few days later than the PS4's November The $499 pricing has already been the subject of many analysts' predictions and leaks, and some suspect that the Xbox Series X is aiming to undercut Sony this fall.

With the PS5 and Xbox Series X only a few months away from launch, expect Sony and Microsoft to be ready to release official pricing and release date information.
