It feels like just yesterday we were talking about the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S, but they’re not old yet. They’re probably about halfway through their lives. Sony says the PS5 is in its “latter stages,” but it’s only been around for three years, so it probably has about three more to go.
We might see new-gen consoles in 2027 or 2028, but that’s not set in stone. We don’t know much about the PlayStation 6, but Xbox’s next-gen console is teased to be a big leap in technology, according to Sarah Bond from Xbox.
There’s a rumor that the next Xbox might be a bit cheaper than the PS6. Some say it’ll have a slightly weaker CPU, which could make it cheaper. But it’s all speculation for now, so don’t get too excited.
If the next Xbox is cheaper, it would be a change from before. The PS5 and Xbox Series X were similar in price, but the PS4 was cheaper than the Xbox One.
We are not sure if the rumor is true, especially since Xbox’s Sarah Bond hinted at a big technical leap. So, take it with a grain of salt until we hear more.
