The arrival of the PlayStation 5 is the newest console that Sony has put on the market. Being the console created after the fan-favorite Playstation 4, fans were expecting greatness from this console.

The console comes with a new controller, one that looks totally different than the PS4’s Dualshock 4 that was well-liked by gamers because of its good grip and convenient, easy use. The new controller features a mixture of the colors white and black and is a bit bigger.

The PS5’s price started out at $499 at any local spot that sells them. However, the demand for this console has been so high that it has sold out everywhere. Resell services such as StockX and eBay are reselling the gaming console for over $1000 dollars.

The PS5 has a total storage space of 825 gigabytes, much larger than the PS4’s 500 gigabytes. This will make it possible for players to store more games at once in their console’s memory hard drive and not have to worry about running out of storage space so quickly.

In terms of the console’s speed. We can put stats compared to the PS4 into perspective. With the PS4, the game, Spider-Man: Miles Morales took a total of one minute and twenty-seven seconds to load. With the PS5, this time has shrunk to 17 seconds! Sony is stepping up their game and it is showing increasingly faster load times for games.
