The PlayStation 6 aims for 2027… but it will be difficult to get one

The current crisis of RAM memory It is not improving and is affecting the launch of several products due to the fluctuation (or rather increase) in their prices. The consoles They are one of these products that are seeing how these prices can cause the next generation to be launched with delays, although it seems that this will not affect sony. According to the well-known leaker KeplerL2 the Sony PlayStation 6 and its portable model is still planned for a launch in 2027.

PlayStation 6 and its portable version are still planned for 2027 despite the RAM crisis

The well-known leaker KeplerL2 has gone to the forums NeoGAF to make people see their position regarding a delay in the launch of the next generation of PlayStation. KeplerL2 has said that, if the PS6 and its portable variant will suffer a delay, AMD would not waste resources on APU validation that this future console will carry. And it is that amd is already working on this new APU known as Canis and Orionif these consoles will not be released until 2028 or 2029 It wouldn’t make sense to continue working on them currently.

DRAM shortage and possible lack of stock at the launch of the PS6

It is possible that AMD and Sony have signed an agreement for these APUs before the current crisis of the DRAMso it would be logical for Sony to have an initial supply for a launch of PlayStation 6 and its portable version for the planned launch date. The problem may come later and we may find ourselves in the same situation as with the launch of PS5where the shortage of silicon made the stock totally irregular and limited.

It seems that there will be a war to get one PlayStation 6 At its launch, perhaps only a lucky few will be able to get their hands on one of these first versions before their stock runs out, this if they are willing to pay the rumored prices that reach 800 dollars.
