February 8 news, PlayStation China announced today that the Bank of China PS5 will be available from April to June 2021. Tatsuo Eguchi, chairman and president of Sony Interactive Entertainment (Shanghai) Co., Ltd., also confirmed that we are making final preparations for the PS5 National Bank version and will do our best to prepare as much shipment as possible for domestic players.
It is understood that the PlayStation 5 uses a new streamlined body compared to the predecessor PlayStation 4, with a black and white interlaced color design on both sides, and a blue light in the middle, with a sandwich structure and a protruding shell. The handle, camera, headset, and charging base all use similar color matching and design language.
PS5 host will provide two versions of optical drive and digital version without optical drive, equipped with AMD custom 8-core Zen 2 CPU 3.5GHz (support frequency conversion). The graphics card is AMD's custom GPU with RDNA2 architecture, with a maximum frequency of 2.23GHz, supports 10.28 trillion floating-point operations per second, supports 120Hz/8K output, 3D audio, etc., and can be directly backward compatible with PS4 games.
In terms of price, the PS5 digital version is priced at 399 US dollars (about 2580 yuan), and the CD-ROM version is priced at 499 US dollars (about 3226 yuan). The price of the National Bank version has not yet been announced.
According to Sony’s previously announced 2020 Q3 quarterly financial report, as of December 31 last year, the company had sold 4.5 million PS5 consoles.
In addition, some media previously discovered a new patent from Sony on the US Patent and Trademark Office website. The patent content shows that Sony may be working hard to introduce a Wi-Fi transceiver module for the DualSense handle of PS5.
This new technology will allow the controller to cooperate with the Bluetooth transceiver through a new Wi-Fi transceiver module. When the player inputs an operation on the controller, the Bluetooth module and Wi-Fi transceiver module will work at the same time and send out signals , The game host or server will receive processing based on the signal that arrives first among the two signals.In this way, the delay of the DualSense controller can be reduced.
It is worth noting that although the image in the patent uses the pattern of the DualShock 4 handle, and the filing time of this patent is also in 2019, the US Patent and Trademark Office website has only recently been released, which probably means Sony will apply this technology to subsequent DualSense controllers, perhaps an upgraded version of DualSense controllers, let us wait and see.
