The PROBLEM With DIFFERENT PS5 Launch Dates | Bamalam Rants

So it's only just really hitting home that being a part of the U.K and Rest of the world. We aren't going to be getting our consoles for an entire week after everyone else, which means no PS5 for an additional week. Here's why I think that builds into what's been a far from perfect delivery of the Playstation 5 from Sony.

More On The PS5:
The PlayStation 5 (PS5) is an upcoming home video game console developed by Sony Interactive Entertainment. Announced in 2019 as the successor to the PlayStation 4, it is scheduled to launch on November 12, 2020 in North America, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, Singapore, and South Korea, and on November 19, 2020 for the rest of the world.

The platform will launch in two varieties: a base model with an Ultra HD Blu-ray compatible optical disc drive, and a Digital Edition lacking this drive, serving as a lower-cost variant for consumers who prefer to buy games through digital download.

The PlayStation 5 has a solid-state drive customized for high-speed data streaming to enable significant improvements in graphical performance. It has a custom AMD GPU capable of ray tracing, 4K resolution display at up to 120 frames per second, 3D audio effects, and backward compatibility with most PlayStation 4 and PlayStation VR games.

Sony planned the PlayStation 5 launch to make it available for 2020's end-of-year holiday sales. The date and pricing was confirmed as part of a game showcase presentation on September 16, 2020; the release date in North America, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, Singapore, and South Korea is November 12, 2020, and for most of the rest of the world on November 19, 2020. A release date for China will be announced later. PlayStation 5's release in India was delayed because the name "PS5" was already trademarked by a different person.

The two launch models are the base version with an Ultra HD Blu-ray compatible optical disc drive for retail game support alongside online distribution via the PlayStation Store, and a lower-cost variant lacking the disc drive and retaining digital download support.

Following the September 16, 2020 presentation, Sony stated that pre-orders for the console were to open at various retailers on the following day. However, several retailers in the United States and United Kingdom launched pre-orders that evening, causing a rush on pre-orders, including scalping as many stores' inventories were quickly sold out, and creating confusion. Sony apologized for the incident on September 19, 2020 and promised to increase more pre-order deliveries over the coming days and stock through the end of the year.
