A commercial for the PS5 has surfaced on the internet, reportedly originating from Hungary. While there are no concrete hints about the price or the release date, many are now hoping for a forthcoming revelation of this information.
Update – 5:00 PM: The official advertisement has now been released by PlayStation. It features the previously leaked scenes. You can find the English advertisement on YouTube and we have embedded the advertisement here in German for you:
In the official PlayStation blog, there are also some developer insights regarding the games that are supposed to be released on the PS5.
What kind of advertisement is this? The 30-second advertisement for the PS5 does not showcase direct gameplay content but relies heavily on CGI effects. The focus is on a female character with a bow and arrow.
Meanwhile, a voice in the background reports that one has arrived in a world where one can feel and hear a lot. Immersion is strongly emphasized in the advertisement, which is likely to be created with the special 3D audio technology and the showcased DualSense 5 controller.
What is lacking, however, are concrete hints about the price of the PS5 and the release of the PlayStation 5. By the way, you can find out more about Sony’s next-gen console here: PlayStation 5 – Everything we know about Sony’s upcoming PS5
Where does the advertisement come from?: The advertisement was first released on the official YouTube channel of PlayStation Hungary. However, the video has since been set to private.
However, since the internet never forgets, the advertisement can still be found on other platforms, including Twitter:
Are there soon new details about the release?
In the PS5 reddit, the advertisement is currently generating a lot of hope among users. After all, it’s an official commercial from Sony. And this would only make sense in the near future if there were also details about the release and the price.
Some have even hoped that there might be new information today, August 20. After all, Sony has frequently released updates on Thursdays in the past, and the video might have just gone online prematurely.
However, there has been no official statement from Sony so far. There isn’t much time left, as the console is supposed to be released this year along with the Xbox Series X.
Can games be recognized in the trailer?
Some clever users on reddit also tried to find game content in the CGI trailer:
- For example, they see in the tower with the radio the new Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War, which was presented with a trailer on August 19 or Horizon Forbidden West in the scenes with the robot and the underwater content.
However, this also remains pure speculation.
