First PS6 Specs Leak Reveals AMD's Power - 8K Gaming at 60fps

We are approaching the third year since the launch of the PlayStation 5, and it will likely be several more years before its successor, presumably the PlayStation 6, is released But even so, PlayStation 6 rumors continue to abound

The latest rumor comes from YouTuber Moore's Law Is Dead, a reliable source who previously leaked details of Sony's long-rumored PS5 Pro with enhanced internals In a recent video, Moore's Law is Dead claimed to know with "100% certainty" that Sony will continue its partnership with AMD for the PS6 and PS5 Pro Sources speculate that the chip will boast a 4K gaming experience at 120fps and 8K at 60fps

Adding credence to this rumor is another report by YouTuber RedGamingTech, who claims that Sony is not considering any vendor other than AMD for its next-generation consoles: the PS4 and PS5 will feature AMD's Jaguar and Zen 2, respectively Before the PS5's 2020 launch, Sony considered moving to another chip vendor, RedGaming Tech said However, the company ultimately decided to stick with AMD for several reasons, including ease of backward compatibility and the fact that it already has a dedicated custom solutions team

Of course, take all of this with a grain of salt unless there is official confirmation from the PlayStation team: while there is still much we don't know about the PS6 specs and release date, thanks to the publicly available court documents from the FTC's case against Microsoft over the Activision Blizzard acquisition court documents released in the FTC's case against Microsoft over its acquisition of Activision Blizzard have provided some clues

In November 2022, Sony indicated in documents filed with the court that it does not plan to launch the PS6 until at least after 2027 Last summer, Microsoft said it would commit to releasing "Call of Duty" games on PlayStation platforms for at least the next 10 years if the Activision Blizzard deal is approved

"This period would in any case exceed the start of the next generation of consoles (scheduled for 2028)," Microsoft said

Sony is already in talks with manufacturers for a PS6, Moore's Law Is Dead claims, and as for the PS5 Pro, the most common rumor is that it will be announced this year and will launch in late 2024 or early 2025
