PlayStation's Game Console is no stranger to our ears. The latest series of this console, both PlayStation 4 both standard and with additional VR features are still the primadonna and up-to-date. But there is news that there will soon be a successor to this console, PlayStation 5?

NanaMiku, JurnalOtaku - President and CEO of Sony, Kenichiro Yoshida, has signaled that his company is planning to release the next generation of PlayStation. "For now, what I can say is necessary to have the next generation of hardware," Yoshida told the Financial Times. He refused to call the next console as "PlayStation 5."

Yoshida's comments appeared to respond in a debate about how Sony should respond to the growing mobile gaming market globally and changing consumer habits as Sony prepares game studios and global markets for PlayStation 4 successors.

The Financial Times also expressed rumors in the industry that Sony is preparing a tablet that will connect several devices "as online streaming for games is expanding and Sony is looking for ways to create a higher synergy between the game and film divisions." The media also quotes from "people people in the game publishing industry with information about Sony's plans for upcoming consoles "who say that early indications of the new generation PlayStation might have a basic architecture similar to the PlayStation 4 and would not be too different.

Even though the news about the successor of the PS4 console is still unclear, at least we can still enjoy the sophistication of both standard and VR-based. We are waiting for further news about this PS4's successor in the future.
