The PS5 is still unlikely to be acquired.
Among other things, because there are delivery problems for components.
For this reason, Sony should now think about changes in the design.
PlayStation fans * need to continue to be strong.
The PS5 is suddenly on offer every now and then, but then just as suddenly out of stock.
In addition, strange offers keep popping up, like the last one at the airport in Istanbul.
For those lucky enough to get hold of one of the coveted consoles, free games for the PS5 occasionally flutter into the house.
But at the end of the day, the PS5 shortage persists.
In order not to strain the patience of the fans, there are apparently plans to change the design.
PS5: That's why Sony is planning a design change
One of the reasons for the shortage of PS5 consoles is that there are already difficulties with the production of the PlayStation.
This also includes the shortage of chips for the entire technology sector.
Therefore, it can also be assumed that the PS5 shortage could, in the worst case, last for years.
But this is not the only construction site where there is a lack of supplies.
"The
shortage of semiconductors is a factor
, but there are also other factors that affect the production volume," Sony's CFO Hiroki Totoki told

PS5 scarcity has been a big issue for months.

PS5 change in design: sales target as a possible reason
Another reason for Sony to think about a design change is perhaps to pinpoint the sales target. After all, despite delivery problems, the company was able to present
excellent sales figures in the first year
. Of course, this now has to be
topped
. Totoki is said to have said that Sony would have the means to do this. How? By “finding a secondary resource, for example, or by changing the design,” says the CFO. According to this statement, there are
no concrete plans for a change
under discussion. Until there is an official statement from Sony, this is just a guess.
