Sony hosted a “Future of Gaming” event where the company unveiled the look of its next-generation PlayStation 5 gaming console. The console was showcased at the end of the event, along with the DualSense controller, which was revealed in April.
The Sony PlayStation 5 is stepping away from the carbon black color scheme of its predecessor and has adopted a bolder arctic white case that features blue accent lights. There’s a possibility that the company could announce the console in other color options.
It will be made available in two versions — one standard model and another a slimmer digital model which will be “discless”.The device packs SSD and the game discs will support a capacity of up to 100GB.
The new Sony DualSense controller is confirmed to come with haptic feedback, built-in microphone, more ergonomic design and shape. Along with this, the company has also revealed a suite of gear, which includes an HD camera, a controller charging station media remote, and a Pulse 3D wireless headset.
