PS5 Concept Imagines What the Next-Gen Console Could Look Like

4.2
A PlayStation fan created a unique concept design for Sony’s upcoming PlayStation 5 to imagine what the console might look like when it’s released later this year. While other concepts we’ve seen for the console have tried to give it a sleek appearance that wasn’t too dissimilar from the current PlayStation 4 and the PlayStation 4 Pro, this new design for the PlayStation 5 leans into the designs of the dev kits that have been seen in the past. It also builds on the design of the PlayStation 5’s DualSense controller that’s already been revealed and has since led to speculation about what the console might look like.

Reddit user ruddi2020 created the concept shared within the PS5 subreddit to propose a slick design for the next-gen console. Instead of being a perfect box like the PlayStation 4 is and other designs have theorized the PlayStation 5 might adopt, the concept adopts a concave design at the top of the console. That part of it is black with the PlayStation log imprinted in the middle while both sides of the console are white similar to how the DualSense controller looks.

The concept can be seen below to show off different angles of the console including some ideas for what PlayStation 5 box art might look like.



It looks somewhat similar to what we’ve seen from pictures of the dev kits sent out for the PlayStation 5, and the similarities were intentional. The creator said it was “loosely based on the dev kit” with the concave shape replacing the “V” which was in the middle of the kits.

The PlayStation 5 will inevitably come in different colors long after its launch, but the concept also capitalizes on some expectations that the console will be white at launch, or at least partially white. Those theories first gained traction when the DualSense controller was revealed to have a two-tone design. While we haven’t seen much of the PlayStation 5 despite hearing about its specs, it’s not a stretch to imagine the console would adopt a similar color scheme compared to what the controller has.

If Sony reveals a system that looks similar to this (minus the color scheme obviously) I am going to be sick.

EightThotz This is just some random guys own little concept of what he wants it to look like. It will looking nothing like this. Honestly, the braindead IQ posts in this article is astonishing.


I didn't know you worked for Sony and knew what the actual console is gonna look like but please enlighten us on how the final product is going to look master.


Sorry you don't have the brain capacity to acknowledge a random guys concept is not the actual console design, nor does it have any sort of resemblance to the controller, so overall his concept is shite anyway. Honestly, why are you people "hoping" it doesn't look like this. Clearly it won't. Literally the exact same thing you people did for the Xbox, you don't even know the difference between a fanmade concept and the actual product. It's embarrassing.

9nty Wait, what is this...is this a DVD player of some sort? Not a console shape very new and clean. It's not all about a shape it's all about what the console can hold graphics wise, hard drive space etc..


You think this looks clean? I think they could have done a way better job creating something new and exciting. This is a L in my opinion.


Who could have done a better job? Sony or the fan who actually made the concept. Did you even read the article? It's fanmade.

They could of 100% do better but this isn't even confirmed yet?


I suppose I have seen a few renders but this is definitely one of the worst ones I have seen so far.


Yeah, there has been a few renders so far, I'd agree with this one being the worst.


There was one before that was white and nice and sleek. Looked great so I hope they end up going that one even though I don't even play playstation.


Knowing Playstation they probably will make it look similar to the PS4 LOL.
