More post-event news is cropping up, after the debut of today's PlayStation Showcase. Not only did we learn that the console will be launching this November, we also got to see the price: $399.99. Sony also revealed that certain PlayStation 5 games will retail for $69.99, while some games thought to be PS5 exclusives will also release on the PS4. These games include Spider-Man: Miles Morales, Sackboy: A Big Adventure, and Horizon Forbidden West. Both the digital and physical versions of these games will offer free upgrades to the PlayStation 5 versions, should you choose to eventually play on the next-gen console.

Additionally, we know that the PS4 community will transition to PS5 at different times, and we’re happy to announce PS4 versions of some of our exclusives. Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales, Sackboy A Big Adventure, and Horizon Forbidden West will also launch on PS4. While these three games were designed to take advantage of PS5 and its unique next-gen features like the ultra-high-speed SSD and DualSense controller, PS4 owners will also be able to enjoy these experiences when they launch. The PS4 digital versions of launch games include a free upgrade on both PS5 consoles, while the PS4 disc versions of these games include a free upgrade on the PS5 with Ultra HD Blu-Ray disc drive.

The current launch lineup for the PlayStation 5 will focus on 5 titles from first party studious: Astro's Playroom, which comes pre-installed with the console, Demon's Souls which retails for $69.99 in North America, Destruction All Stars, Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales, and Sackboy: A Big Adventure.

I really like the design on the console. Pricing is ok but I wouldn`t risk going all digital since sony 1st parties are mostly disposable single player.

Spider-Man Miles Morales standard edition takes up 50 gb while the ultimate edition takes up 105 gb. Demon Souls remake 66 gb. So I would say bigger than PS4 but not by a huge amount. OTTH these are launch games. I'm sure we'll eventually see games that will hit 200 gb eventually.

Did they say how external hard drives will work do you need an ssd external or can you use a standard? We're going to need a lot of space.

I did not know until I read this thread that Spiderman and Horizon will be on PS4. That makes it all more easy for me to wait to buy a PS5.

Is the SSD user upgradable?

According to Google there's extra slots for SSD, but the problem is the speed even on the SSDs are not as good as the one in the PS5.

until sony starts embracing pc as the god platform like they should/ porting all the exclusives to PC i will get a day one console, (or at least a console with an early version) wait a few months for an exploit, and pirate to high heavens

I mean you may as well just get the PS5 because you get 99% compatibility for PS4 games as well as a ton of free games w Plus Day 1. Dont see why you'd buy a meh limited edition like that now.

Because.... opinions.

Price is ok/good? You live in a country where they'll scalp the price even higher that not many will be able to purchase it.

Nintendo's online service on Wii, Wii U and 3DS were so bare bones. Still are.
