PlayStation 6 Development Reaches Advanced Stage: SoC Design Complete and GPU Details Leaked

Rumors suggest that Sony’s next-generation gaming console, the PlayStation 6, is further along in development than anticipated. According to AMD leaker Kepler L2, the console’s System on Chip (SoC) is design complete and has entered the pre-silicon validation phase.

An A0 tapeout is reportedly scheduled for late 2025, aligning with Sony’s historical timeline of releasing consoles roughly two years after this stage. If accurate, the PlayStation 6 could hit the market as early as 2027.

While the exact specifications remain unclear, this architecture is expected to introduce advanced features that will likely push the boundaries of gaming performance.

Sony has once again partnered with AMD for the PlayStation 6, continuing their collaboration from previous generations.

Reports indicate that Intel was also in the running to produce the console’s chips but lost the bid due to disagreements over profit margins and pricing.

With the console’s development progressing steadily, gamers can look forward to more updates as the timeline inches closer to 2027.
