There have been all sorts of rumors about the next phase of PlayStation hardware, be it a PS5 Pro, PS5 Slim or possibly even both. So far Sony has kept quiet about the possibility, but we have little to go on beyond rumors. But according to Microsoft, we may be seeing some new PS5 hardware before the year is up.
Specifically, Microsoft believes that Sony will release a PS5 Slim before the end of 2023. The company outlined details of what it believes Sony’s plans are in documents filed with the FTC, all as part of hearings related to the attempted buyout of Activision Blizzard. Microsoft also believes Sony may end up selling the PS5 Slim for the same $400 price tag as the PS5 Digital.
