Rumor: PlayStation 5 Price Leaks, And It Ain't Cheap
That said, according to the leaker, the PlayStation 5 is launching in 2020, and will be $100 more than the PS4 at launch. That's right, the PS5 may be $500, which is $100 more than the PS4's launch price-point of $400. Given that Sony had so much success with the PS4, it seems crazy to think it will come in at a $100 more with the PS5, but given the current price of the PS4 Pro, it's possible.
The leak claims that despite asking for $500, the PS5 will sell at a $100 loss in the beginning. As for the system itself, the leaker says it will be backward compatible, offer a new premium version of PlayStation Plus (which has been echoed in other leaks), pack a 2TB built-in hard drive, support 8K upscaling, and be compatible with a newly upgraded PlayStation VR headset. And of course, there's also a new controller, the DualShock 5, which will have a built-in camera.
Now, it's important to remember this is all unofficial information. In fact, not only is it unofficial, but there's a very solid chance it's incorrect or fake. So, take all of this with a huge grain of salt.
If PlayStation 5 is going to release in 2020, then we should hear about it within the next 12 months. In other words, we won't have to rely on leaks like this for much longer.

coolbunny1234 Not a bad price, but I really couldn't care in the least bit for the next console, still too early IMO.
How is it too early? If you mean to be releasing. 360 to Xbox one was 8 years. 2021 will be 8 years from current gen which is when we are expecting them to drop

THQ 500 dollars for a new console really isn't much. They also give you ample time to save up for one. Your getting modern PC level hardware and the luxury of not having to mess with all kinds of settings. Just download and play
One of the biggest factors you left out: no upgrading. Consoles last and are supported for way more than 5 years, the investment is a good one if you get enjoyment out of it
