<strong>The PlayStation 6 and the Xbox Next-Gen are expected to launch in 2028</strong>

Indian players love Sony's PlayStation systems for their amazing gaming skills, and they have a sizable fan base. The PlayStation 5 (PS5) is still a favorite among gamers, but new information from court records that IGN just obtained indicates that the PlayStation 6 and Xbox 7 might launch as early as 2028.

Microsoft Acquisition Case

In a US court case involving Microsoft's acquisition of Activision Blizzard, the tech giant said that the next-generation gaming consoles would be released officially in 2028. This projection demonstrates that replacements to the ongoing age, including the PS5 and Xbox X and S, might actually show up following an eight-year span.

Documents discussing a ten-year commitment by Sony to exclusively release Call of Duty games on PlayStation consoles revealed information regarding the upcoming consoles. The fact that this commitment would continue after the anticipated launch of the next console generation in 2028, as highlighted in the report by IGN, further supports the likelihood of new gaming machines.

These findings infer that Microsoft is effectively fostering its own gaming consoles. It is important to note that Sony and Microsoft typically release their high-end gaming consoles simultaneously. For instance, the PS5 was released by Sony on November 12, 2020, just two days after the most recent Xbox series was released to the public. Their previous console releases also displayed this synchronized pattern.

Sony had previously stated that the forthcoming PlayStation console would likely arrive in 2027, so these anticipated release dates are in line with that prediction.

In addition, Microsoft, which has its headquarters in Redmond, Washington, is at the moment fighting the US Federal Trade Commission over its position regarding a $69 billion acquisition deal. The ongoing trial has revealed a variety of information regarding the gaming industry's future. Following Microsoft's acquisition of the game developer, the Xbox boss confirmed in a recent update that Microsoft intends to continue providing Call of Duty games to future Playstation consoles.

As gamers wait for the PlayStation 6 and the next generation of Xbox consoles to arrive, these developments offer an intriguing glimpse into the gaming industry's future and hint at the exciting possibilities that lie ahead.
