What do PS5’s, new cars, and modern washing machines have in common? They all use semiconductors and if you haven’t heard there is a big shortage affecting everything from consumer electronics to household appliances and even automobiles.

Sony, Microsoft, and Nintendo are exceptions and the shortage is putting a strain on the supply of new consoles each manufacturer is able to produce. Sony issued a statement this morning saying they are ramping up production over the summer but will it be enough for people to finally just walk into a store or go online and buy a PS5?

In other news, Skull & Bones has been delayed once again making it the third… or fourth time the fairly anticipated nautical combat game has been pushed into dangerous waters.

Ubisoft is planning to put more resources into a higher tier for free-to-play and mobile games which maybe isn’t a surprise but we won’t blame you if you want to clutch onto a boxed copy of Assassin’s Creed or something.

A new blog post from The Coalition makers of God of War alluded to the studio working on multiple projects in the coming years which has some speculating about a potential new IP or remake.

Lastly, Gabe Newell did an interview panel at a college in New Zealand and was asked if any Steam games would be coming to the console. His answer was cryptic but got a lot of people excited.

To round things out stick around for a 5-Second Review of Returnal and Coming Soon section that doesn’t quit.

Thanks for watching everyone and have a great weekend.

In This Story: PS5

The PlayStation 5 (PS5) is an upcoming home video game console developed by Sony Interactive Entertainment. Announced in 2019 as the successor to the PlayStation 4, it is scheduled to launch on November 12, 2020 in North America, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, and South Korea, and on November 19, 2020 for the rest of the world.

The platform is anticipated to launch in two varieties, as a base PlayStation 5 system incorporating an Ultra HD Blu-ray compatible optical disc drive for retail game support alongside digital distribution via the PlayStation Store, and a lower-cost Digital variant lacking the disc drive while retaining digital download support.

The PlayStation 5 features a customized solid state drive designed for high-speed data streaming to enable significant improvements in graphical performance. The hardware also features a custom AMD GPU capable of ray tracing, support for 4K resolution displays and high framerates, new audio hardware for real-time 3D audio effects, and backward compatibility with most PlayStation 4 and PlayStation VR games.
