What to Expect From the PlayStation 5

Whether you're a fan of PlayStation or not, you can't ignore the PlayStation 5. The new console is a massive beast, and its features make it a compelling game machine. Here's a look at what to expect from the PS5.

The new PlayStation features a redesigned console, updated wireless controllers, and an improved user interface. It's built with a powerful SSD, which allows the system to load games faster. Combined with its high-resolution graphics, the PS5 is a fantastic machine for playing games.

The new system is capable of running 4K resolution games and can support a 120Hz refresh rate on 4K displays. It also offers 3D audio and haptics. It's also backwards compatible with nearly all PlayStation 4 titles at launch.

The PlayStation 5's launch lineup is surprisingly strong. It includes games like Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales, Sackboy: A Big Adventure, and Astro's Playroom. Some of these games take advantage of the controller's DualSense feature. Other titles, such as God of War, are also designed to benefit from the controller's improved haptics.

Other features include the ability to use a microphone built into the wireless controllers to chat with other gamers. There are also load time boosts and adaptive triggers, which add realism to game interactions. These features will work best with games that use a high frame rate.

In addition, the PlayStation 5 has a redesigned user interface that offers new ways to get to your games more quickly. This is done through a Control Center, which is accessed by tapping the PlayStation button on the DualSense controller. It presents a series of tiles with contextual options.
