Right, and the PS4 was released in late 2013, so its lifecycle from then to the release of the PS5 was 7 years.

So being in the latter part of the PS5’s cycle is basically on par with the PS4, which only just saw its last new licensed title I believe.

Further evidence, the PS5 JUST got a mid cycle refresh, indicating essentially a halfway point. It’s all speculation but to me this timeline seems basically in line with every previous generation.

Playstation/PS One: 1994-2000 (6 years)

PS2: 2000-2006 (6 years)

PS3: 2006-2013 (7 years)

PS4: 2013-2020 (7 years)

PS5: 2020- (3+ years so far)

Huh for some reason I had 10 years stuck in my head.
