Even if the screenshot is not a fake, the listed price could only be a placeholder.

The prices for the PS5 consoles agree with the assessment of some analysts - including Michael Pachter.

However, it is somewhat doubtful that the PS5 controller will cost “only” 49.90 euros.

The Twitter leaker has revealed various information about the PS5 and the games in recent months.

Some of them turned out to be true in hindsight.

Among other things, he had correctly predicted the release for 2021 before the official announcement of "Horizon 2: Forbidden West".

However,

- for example, with the date of the PS5 unveiling.

How is his prediction regarding the release date of the PS5 to be classified?

Sony has recently emphasized several times that the production of the next-gen console is

and that the release is planned for Christmas 2020 - in the USA this will start in November.

Therefore, the leaker does not lean far out of the window with his assertion.

Whether the PS5 will really

appear

will only be certain when Sony officially announces it.
