Sony’s PS4 release date has finally been
announced at Gamescom 2013. Long live play indeed!
The PS4 release date is the 15 of November in
North America, and 29 of November in Europe.
This date coincides with where many suspected it
would land. With the holiday rush in full swing at that time of the year, it
was a no-brainer for Sony to release their fourth generation proper console
then.
Before today’s official announcement of the PS4
release date, it was confirmed by Sony that the PlayStation 4 would come out
“Holiday 2013.”
The PS4 was first unveiled during Sony’s E3 2013
press conference. The console has an italicized equals sign look, and will
retail for £349 / €399 / $399.
One of the largest draws to the
PS4 over Microsoft’s Xbox One was that the PS4 will not require an Internet
connection, and used games will not be blocked. However, Microsoft has gone on
to repeal many of their unpopular Xbox One features, per popular demand.
Preorders for both the PS4 and
Xbox One have been performing exceptionally well. Many retailers, such as
GameSpot and Amazon, are no longer taking further preorders for the next
generation consoles.
Fans of Sony hope to see sequels
of series such as Uncharted 4 and PlayStaion All-Stars.
