The latest gaming hardware PlayStation 5 releases not one but two consoles. The PlayStation 5 Digital version not only does not have a disc insert, it would be much slimmer on the base.

However if you prefer the finer resolution, Sony has PS5 to please your eyes. The optical drive accepts Ultra HD Blu-ray discs. With or without the optical drive, you will still be able to stream games, films, music and TV shows. Both consoles carry identical refresh rates in 4k games.

New games

Horizon: Forbidden West, God of War: Ragnarok, Final Fantasy 16, the Demon’s Souls, Spider-Man: Miles Morales

In addition there will be a new 3D HD Camera with dual 1080p lenses to allow players stream footage while playing games. This gives amateur streamers an edge to live stream like a professional.
