That's according to a new YouTube video from Moore's Law is Dead (MLID), who has previously accurately reported on other leaked hardware details, in which he attempted to estimate the pricing for the next PlayStation hardware following recent price hikes of the PS5 (via GamesRadar ). In the video, MLID claimed that Sony would launch a base PS6 , a "lite" model dubbed the "PS6
S", and a PS6 handheld at the same time next year. Article continues below

rough spot Sony really, really, wants PS4 players to switch to the PS5
'Now's the perfect time to upgrade your PS5 console' Sony could be forced to delay the PS6 to 2029 due to the rising cost of RAM, as Nintendo reportedly considers increasing the cost of the Switch 2

The main console would reportedly feature an Orion CPU, while the PS6 S and handheld would feature the AMD "Canis" chipset .

In terms of pricing, it's estimated that each device could range between $350 and $1000, with the PS6 handheld, which sounds like it could be like the PS Portal , being the cheapest out of the bunch.

While MLID didn't offer specific pricing leaks, the YouTuber predicts that
due to the increasing cost of components, RAM shortages, and rising tariffs, the price tag for each console could change in the future.

MLID estimated that the "PS6 S" could cost between $349 and $549, the PS6 companion handheld between $499 and $699, and the main PS6 console between $699 and $999.

This is all just speculation at this time, but given Sony's recent price
hikes of the PS5, PS5 Pro, and PS Portal , the next-generation console and
its counterparts may be a bit pricier than the launch PS5 was back in 2020.

The company announced the huge price changes last month, citing the
"continued pressures in the global economic landscape" for its decision to increase the price of the PS5 by $100 and the PS5 Pro by $150.

As of April 2, the PS5 now costs $649.99 / 569.99, up from $549.99 / 479.99. The PS5 Digital Edition is now $599.99 / 519.99 instead of $499.99 / 429.99, and the PS5 Pro is now priced at a whopping $899.99 / 789.99, up from $749.99 / 699.99.

Meanwhile, the PS Portal now costs $249.99 / 219.99, up from $199.99 /
199.99. The best gaming consoles All the best consoles of this generation
