A brand-new PlayStation console set to be introduced ‘later this year’ may be a real treat for all you gamers out there.
According to a court document unsealed as part of the FTC vs. Microsoft litigation, Microsoft believes Sony will release a PlayStation 5 Slim.
And it gets better: a handheld game streaming gadget that wirelessly links to the PS5 is rumored to be joining the new system.
Sony has yet to confirm such allegations. The documents, which have subsequently circulated online, indicate that Microsoft may have gotten there first and announced Sony’s future PlayStation before the brand even had a chance.

The trial will decide the fate of a proposed preliminary injunction against Activision Blizzard’s nearly $70 billion (£55 billion) acquisition of Call of Duty producer, Activision Blizzard.
Not only did Microsoft appear to confirm the long-rumored existence of a PlayStation 5 Slim, but it also alluded to its rumored pricing.
Microsoft alleges in court documents dated June 22 that “PlayStation likewise sells a less expensive Digital Edition for $399.99, and is expected to release a PlayStation 5 Slim later this year at the same reduced price point.”
