PlayStation 5 (PS5) is Sony’s 9th-generation video-game console launched in late 2020. It marks the first time Sony used the faster SSD in its console. Other than that, it also came with an AMD Zen 2 CPU, 16 GB of RAM and 10,28-TFLOPs GPU. The PS5 also brought a new controller – the DualSense, boasting an innovative feature of adaptative triggers. The console is backwards-compatible with the PS4. PlayStation 5 was launched in two versions – with physical Blu-ray drive, and without it (the PS5 Digital Edition).
