PS5 Specs
What sets PS5 apart from its predecessors? The biggest highlight of the PS5 is its load rate of 5.5 GB/s, making it 10 times faster than the old PS4. If you plug it to your TV via HDMI 2.1, you’ll be able to enjoy your favourite games at 4K 120FPS. Or in a simpler sentence, you’re going to experience your gameplay in extra vibrant colours. Not only that, the Auto Low Latency Mode will significantly reduce the latency between your thumbsticks and the characters moving on your screen, improving your targeting skills especially in games that involve competitive shooting. Sounds pretty sick, isn’t it?
If you think the captivating visual graphics are enough, Sony kicks up a notch by introducing 3D Audio. The PS5 will have an enhanced audio system, incorporating object-based spatial sound technology that is a replica of PSVR virtual reality headset-- truly a piece of music to every gamer’s ears.
PS5 Digital Edition
The PS5 will be the first of its kind to have a digital edition that will ditch the traditional disc drive. Other than its slimmer built, it’s pretty obvious that you can longer use your game discs anymore so this is where you should weigh in your decision before purchasing the latest PS5. For your old PS4 game discs, you’ll have to download them into your console. The digital version is very useful if you have a good wifi connection at home and you are planning to purchase all of your games directly from their official Playstation store. Besides, it’s also cheaper than the original PS5!
PS5 Games
Apart from Marvel’s highly-anticipated upgraded version of Spider-Man Miles Morales, most of the PS4 games can be played in PS5 thanks to its backwards compatibility including Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, Fortnite, FIFA 21, GTA 5, Cyberpunk 2077, Need For Speed: No Limits, Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege and many more. Some of the PS5 games also offer free downloads with different terms and conditions. 18 games will also be included, special for those who are subscribed to the PlayStation Plus Collection: Bloodborne, Final Fantasy XVI, The Last Of Us Remastered, Batman: Arkham Knight, Resident Evil 7: Biohazard, Fallout 4-- the list goes on.
Do you think Sony will stop there? Nope. The PS5 game line-up includes their PS5 Exclusives such as God of War: Ragnarok, Astro’s Playroom, Destruction AllStars, Demon’s Souls, Gran Turismo 7 and Horizon Forbidden West.
Other games to get excited for are Bugsnax, the PS5 version of the Nintendo Switch’ Animal Crossing, Cris Tales, Dustborn and Goodbye Volcano High-- a twist from the usual PS5 games. Potterheads, it’s time to rejoice as Hogwarts Legacy, a game set in the Harry Potter universe will be joining the PS5 family next year.
PS5 Console
While the previous PS might get heated up pretty fast alongside with the annoying noise, Sony has taken these factors into account, making the latest PS5 to possibly the quietest gaming console you’ve ever owned. For those who are planning to buy the 4K UHD Blu-ray disc drive version instead of the digital edition, worry not, Sony has created an anti-vibration technology that will avoid your disc from making noises while it’s being run. As for those who will be switching up to the digital edition, expect a slimmer silhouette due to the absence of the disc drive.
The increased size from its previous PS4 is mainly because of its upgraded specs inside, including its big cooling fan, ginormous heatsink and wider air vents. Sony also went the extra mile by including a cooling liquid metal mechanism as an extra step to prevent your console from frying up for many more years to come. The build of the console is also said to keep the dust at bay. Also, you will be able to enjoy extra savings when you cop this one as it comes with its own stand that you can set whether you’d want to set your console vertically or horizontally.
PS5 Controller
Ah, the game controller. It has to be one of the sexiest features of the PS5 other than being bigger than the PS4 controller to allow extra comfort for the gamer. The colour is greyish white, emulating the iconic first PlayStation controller. The latest wireless controller is enhanced with the DualSense that gives off haptic feedback, dynamic adaptive triggers with a special touch: little ‘P’ logo is engraved all over the controller, giving you that extra grip.
PS5 Headset & Media Remote
Is the aforementioned 3D audio alluring enough for you to imagine how amazing your gameplay would be? Well, Sony is stepping up with PS5’ special headset: the PULSE 3D Wireless Headset. To highlight the ‘3D-ness’ of these headsets, the PULSE 3D is powered with Tempest 3D AudioTech where you get to enjoy immersive soundscapes as if the sound comes from every direction. You know that feeling when you feel like you’re in the game? Sony is helping you to make it as realistic as possible. Not only do you get to enjoy seamless 3D audio, this USB Type 3-C charging headsets also feature dual noise-cancelling microphones, it’s time to say goodbye to annoying, buzzing noises.
The new PS5 is so good that even its media remote looks so cool. The sleek remote features new buttons for easy entertainment navigation: Netflix, Disney Plus, Spotify and Youtube. Other than Apple TV contents made available, gamers can also take part in gaming live streams via Twitch. This media remote has everything that you need to control everything from the comfort of your couch. Remember when your mom used to nag about not leaving the room when you were busy playing your PS? Bet. After all, staying indoors is the new cool anyway.
PS5 vs PS4
While it might seem like a mere upgrade leap from 4 to 5 but Sony has made major tweaks to give significant changes to the PS5. Other than having a disc-less console, below are some of the key upgrades for the PS5 that you gamers need to know:
-
PS5’ CPU contains 8-core, 16 thread, up to 3.5Ghz while the PS4 only contains 8 Jaguar Cores, 1.6Ghz.
-
While for GPU, PS5 runs at 36 CUs at 2.23GHz, 10.3 TFLOPs and its predecessor is behind at 18 CUs at 800MHz, 1.84 TFLOPS.
-
The PS5 memory is doubled from PS4, as it contains 16GB GDDR6 (PS4: 8GB GDDR5).
-
PS5 displays at Ultra HD Blu-Ray with video output from 4K and could reach 8K, a major upgrade from the basic PS4’ Blu-Ray display with video output of 1080p.
However, the PS5 console contains smaller internal memory storage of 825GB SSD (PS4:1TB HDD) but SSDs work way better as opposed to HDD because it runs at 5.5GB RAW, making it the fastest loading console in the gaming industry.
Important to note that even compared to PS4 Pro, the PS5 reigns supreme as it is powered with much greater power, for example, PS4 Pro runs at 4.2 TFLOPS while PS5 is way ahead with 10.3 TFLOPs. So, you get the idea.
