PlayStation 6 Rumors 2026: Release Pushed to 2028 or 2029 as RAM Shortage Delays Sony's Next-Gen Plans
TOKYO — Sony Interactive Entertainment has given no official word on the PlayStation 6, but mounting rumors and analyst reports in April 2026 point to a significant delay, with the next-generation console now most likely launching in late 2028 or even 2029 rather than the previously expected 2027 window.
PlayStation 6 Rumors about a possible Lite version raise new questions about Sony's hardware strategy.
According to the latest leaks, Sony would prepare a bursting launch for its next generation of consoles in 2027. The strategy envisaged would include not one, but three distinct machines: a standard PS6, a more accessible model called "Lite" or "S", and a portable console. This approach would mark a major shift towards the creation of a complete hardware ecosystem from day one.
