PS5 First look: Pictures, Specifications, and More Details

At the end of the live stream, Sony revealed the design for the PS5, and fans got their first look at the new console from Sony.

The PS5 Event lasted for about an hour and a half and showed 25 new game titles, some that will be available on launch and some that will release later next year.
