The new-generation Japanese machine, which has yet to be shown, also has no official date.
While Microsoft shows the Xbox Series X games, as well as new details of the console, Sony remains silent and without revealing its plans, however much the rumors point to June as a presentation date. PlayStation 5 has shown its controller and some of its features, but we have not yet seen its design and the official release date has not been announced. All in all, a job offer published by Sony Interactive Entertainment Japan ensures that the system will be available from October 2020.
Will the console be out on that date? It is a lot of conjecture, since despite being official information published by the Japanese company, it should not be ruled out that it was an error or that this launch window has been moved to another date due to the coronavirus crisis. From PlayStation, the only information they have shared is that the platform will go on sale at the end of the year.

The haptic options, suitable for horror games
One of the great novelties of PlayStation 5 with respect to the new generation is its controller with haptic technology. According to Szymon Ergmanski, from Bloober Team (creators of Observer System Redux, Blair Witch and The Medium, among others), the nuances provided by this technology applied to triggers will benefit horror and suspense games. Ergmanski sees it as "a great opportunity to offer additional information about the environment."
The developer explained that the haptic features will be crucial "for anyone who likes to investigate or to create an experience with even more suspense, which cannot be underestimated in the horror genre." In addition, he promises that they will use these new options with the aim of "improving the atmosphere of gloom and suspense" that characterizes The Observer.
Although we do not know everything about PlayStation 5, we do know many of the video games that will be released for the console. We invite you to meet them in this article.
