An industry analyst is now expecting Sony to launch the PS6 at the end of 2028, pushing back earlier estimates for the next-generation console.
The source is thin on specifics — no analyst name, firm, or methodology is cited in the available text, and no Sony comment is included. The headline is the extent of the confirmed detail.
PS5 launched in November 2020, so a late-2028 PS6 would put the generational gap at roughly eight years — longer than the five-year PS4-to-PS5 cycle but not unprecedented given how Sony extended the PS3 era. Sony has not officially commented on PS6 development timelines, though CEO Hiroki Totoki previously acknowledged the company is working on its next platform.
With no further sourcing available, treat this as one analyst's projection rather than confirmed roadmap news.
