The new console will have the ability to load games in a fraction of the time compared to its predecessor released in 2013.
Sony have released some of the early details about the eagerly anticipated Playstation 5 console, which is set to include"backwards compatibility" and"8K graphics".
Sony's lead system architect Mark Cerny told Wired magazine that the long-awaited console, which has unofficially been called PS5, will not be released this year. He said users can expect"dramatically different" 3D audio on the console, and that it will feature support for 8K graphics through the use of"ray-tracing technology" - a complex lighting technique.Rumours had previously swirled online that the next Playstation would not have a disc drive and be a"digital-only" console.
However, Mr Cerny rebuked that, saying the new system will be"based in part on the PS4's architecture", which means it will have"backwards compatibility" and players will be able to play their old games on the newest systems.The new Playstation has been in development for more than four years and Sony is already working with studios to bring games to the new console.
