If you’re looking forward to Sony’s new PlayStation 5, the good news is that the company has finally announced its availability date and price.
In October last year, the company announced that the PlayStation 5 would be available to consumers by the end of 2020.
The company said that the PlayStation 5 controller is undergoing a number of changes, and for the first time, the Rumble technology is being replaced by a new Heptic feedback technology.
Then in June this year the company introduced its console so that consumers can know what its design will look like.
The PS5’s stand is vertical, just like the Xbox Series X’s while it will be available in 2 versions, a 4K Blu-ray drive and a Pure Digital Edition.
The digital version of the PS5 is thinner than the regular model without an optical drive, and this means that the digital edition will be cheaper, although the company did not announce the price at the time.
The company has now announced that the PlayStation 5 will be available in the US, Japan, Canada, Mexico, Australia, New Zealand and South Korea from November 12, while it will be released on November 19 in Europe and other countries.
However, consumers in China will have to wait longer.
It can be pre-ordered in different countries from September 17 and is priced at قیمت 400 (over 66,000 Pakistani rupees).

Interestingly, the price and availability date for Microsoft’s Xbox Series X and Series X consoles were announced last week and will be available in November.
Like the Xbox Series X, the PS5 can be placed vertically or horizontally under the TV or monitor, while Sony has also made a stand, but the stand for the digital edition is a bit different.
The top of the PS5 has vents for heat exhaust while the front has USBA and USBBC ports.
Sony has also developed a number of accessories for the PS5, including a dual Sons charging station, a new HD camera, a Plus 3D wireless headset and a media remote.
The new PlayStation will use 100GB of Blu-ray discs, while the company has already confirmed that the console will have a disk drive, but all games will have to be installed on an internal SSD.
In fact, Superfast SSD is the biggest update Sony has revealed and the company has promised to improve data read speed so that games do not take up much space in storage.
The user interface of the new PlayStation has also been completely changed and more detailed social features will now appear on the home screen.
PlayStation 5 has 8 core CPU, costume GPU, 3D audio, 8K gaming support (while 120Hz 4K gaming support), low power consumption option, PS4 backwards compatibility and ultra fast SS Features like D will also be present.
