Rumor: Japanese PlayStation site briefly features a PS5 menu item showing a design similar to devkits

[Kalmakov]

Looked for a thread, didn't find one. This "leak" comes from reddit so take with a grain of salt. Honestly I'm kinda 50/50 on if this is legit.

For reference here is the PS5 dev kit

If this is legit or not is up for debate, it honestly looks legit and it's the type of mistake I could see happening, but it's also reddit and a phone pic, so it's split for me. If the PS5 does end up looking similar to the dev kit then I'd be pretty happy, the "V" or "5" shape definitely makes the console stand out more, especially against the boxy, angular look of the 4 and against it's competitors

fake :(

 

[modiz]

it was already proven that it could be very easily faked.

If it means better ventilation and less noise then great.

Welp, I'm slow on the draw again. Also, that sucks. Thread will be closed asap

Looks fake to me.

V has come to.

I would think this design is to allow multiple dev kits to be stacked while still receiving airflow so I doubt this is the final design.

Already debunked.

 

[Toumari]

If it was on their screen, why would they take a photo of it instead of a screenshot?

 

[Gay Bowser]

The only reason for the Consummate Vs™ is to allow airflow into the top of the dev kit when stacked. It makes no sense for a home console.

 

[Ada]

Easily faked

 

[Lunchbox]

I hope the console ends up looking nothing like.. that.
