DOCUMENTS have been released with the expected release date for the PS6 and next-gen Xbox console.
The PS5 and Xbox Series X|S were released almost three years ago, and people have been wondering when the next consoles will come.
The new Series S will be released this year.
Both Microsoft and Sony have submitted documents to the FTC regarding Microsoft’s potential purchase of Activision Blizzard.
If the merger goes through, then Microsoft would own one of gaming’s largest publishers.
Activision Blizzard owns a number of profitable series, such as Diablo, World of Warcraft, Candy Crush, Overwatch, and Call of Duty.
The American FTC and the UK’s CMA are the only two authorities that have sought to block the acquisition.
Currently, Microsoft is submitting documents to these regulatory boards.
The documents hope to ease concerns that the acquisition would cause Xbox to have a monopoly over the market.
According to IGN, documents submitted by Microsoft claim that the next generations of consoles are expected to release in 2028.
New consoles are usually released near the end of the year to boost sales during the holiday season.
It seems the most likely window for the PS6 and next Xbox console is September to November 2028.
This would be eight years after the launch of the current generation of consoles, which is consistent with other console generations.
The Nintendo Switch 2 is not included in this estimation, as Nintendo releases consoles at a different time to PlayStation and Xbox.
The Switch is currently seven years old, and in keeping with this eight-year timeline, people are expecting the successor to come next year.
However, the latest document is the most official PS6 and next Xbox release date information we’ve seen so far, as it comes straight from Microsoft.
PlayStation has announced that it won’t share its plans with Activision Blizzard.
It seems people will have to hang onto their current-gen consoles for a little while longer.
