Meanwhile, Sony’s next-generation gaming console – PlayStation 6 may not come out until 2027. An official document from the PlayStation LifeStyle reveals. As per the document titled “Sony Interactive Entertainment Observations on the CMA’s issue statement”, the Sony PS6 launch date could be pushed to 2027.

The document addresses Microsoft’s acquisition of Activision Blizzard. For the unaware, Activision Blizzard is the company that publishes Call of Duty titles, which are exclusive to Sony PlayStation. It was reportedly in talks to be acquired by Microsoft. But Sony is against the acquisition. Because Microsoft’s acquisition of Activision Blizzard would mean that the Call of Duty exclusivity will go to Microsoft’s Xbox.
