PlayStation 6 release date and specs have reportedly been leaked online, according to tech expert Moore’s Law Is Dead. The leak confirms Sony’s plans for the upcoming console’s strength, portable version, and potential release date.
The latest leak suggests that the PS6 will be roughly 50% more powerful than the PS5 Pro. However, it also appears that the jump in power between consoles may not be as significant as expected. Instead, Sony seems to be focusing on keeping pricing down and improving power consumption.
In terms of specs, the leaked documents reveal a chiplet design using “Navi 5” desktop chiplets, with backwards compatibility to PS5 and PS4 generations. The portable console is expected to be more powerful than the Xbox ROG Ally X.
According to Moore’s Law Is Dead, production for the PS6 is planned for mid-2027, with a likely Fall 2027 or early 2028 release date. While this leak may not be entirely accurate, it’s worth noting that Sony is aggressively focusing on reducing costs and improving performance.
For portable gamers, the news is exciting: the PS6 handheld console should beat the Xbox ROG Ally X in terms of performance. However, it’s unclear whether the portable console will be a “powerhouse” or just a step up from the existing devices.
It’s also worth noting that these leaked specs are reportedly based on official documents sent to Sony by AMD in 2023. As with any leak, take it with a grain of salt until further confirmation is received.
