One of the most long awaited items to come to stores will soon be upon us, the PS5 (Playstation 5) will soon come to stores.


The next generation console that Sony has created has many high tech features and bonuses that previous consoles have not had. In the previous console (the PS4) many people were sick and tired of watching their screens, just waiting for their game to start up.


But with the PS5 that is a problem of the past. The developers came up with a solution to fix the problem by building a customized SSD (Solid State Drive) which as a result makes the systems loading times going as fast as 5.5 GB per second.


Speed is important, but another quality that most gamers will agree on is that space is also a major thing in consoles. The PS5 will have a whooping 667 GB storage drive, that’s a little under two hundred more storage than the PS4 had.


But that’s just the base storage the chief architect for the PS5 stated that the new system will have expandable storage options. Unfortunately, that option will not be available at launch.


Ask any fashionable person you know and they would most likely agree that accessories are a huge part of an outfit.

It’s a very similar function when is come to gaming consoles, the biggest change coming to the accessories for the PS5 is the 3D audio headset that will be available.


3D audio will make it possible for you to hear dialogue and noises from specific areas. For example if you hear a bush move on your right then your right ear will be the only side to pick up the noise.


Graphics make or break games, the amount of games that had a great story but had graphics that made it completely unplayable is too big.

But it’s the console’s responsibility to show the graphics, and the PS5 will have some never seen benefits that are costly.


The new gen will have 120 FPS (Frames per second) and 4k resolution and 8k resolution. Owning the system itself will not upgrade your tv these are examples of the support the new system will have.

Personally, I cannot wait to get the new PS5 console. The benefits of upgrading your personal entertainment console definitely have more rather than just keeping the same thing. So if you are looking for an upgrade or wanting to game, I recommend the PS5.
