PS5 redesign will enter production in 2022, new report claims - Video Games Chronicle

Supply chain sources say redesigned console will feature a “new semi-customized” 6nm CPU from AMD.

That’s according to Taiwanese business website DigiTimes, which claims that suppliers including semiconductor foundry TSMC are planning to start producing the redesigned PS5 console between the second and third quarters of next year.

So, at present, we’d like to aim at [beating] second year sales of 14.8 million, which was the second year of PS4.”.

Sony Interactive Entertainment CEO Jim Ryan has refused to guarantee the company will be able to satisfy PS5 demand by the 2021 holiday sales season, noting in a February interview with the Financial Times that “there are very few magic wands that can be waved,” although he said the supply situation will improve throughout the year.

“The pace of the improvement in the supply chain will gather throughout the course of the year, so by the time we get to the second half of [2021], you’re going to be seeing really decent numbers indeed.”.
