A recent leak has unveiled potential technical specifications for both the highly anticipated PlayStation 6 and Sony's rumored handheld gaming device. With the PlayStation 5 approaching its fifth anniversary, the gaming community is eagerly awaiting news about Sony's next-generation consoles. While official details remain scarce, these leaks might provide an exciting preview of what's to come.

Following initial rumors about the PlayStation 6, multiple sources have suggested that Sony is developing a handheld companion for the PS6 as a more affordable option. This speculation gains credibility as Nintendo's Switch 2 continues to dominate the portable gaming market and Microsoft shifts focus toward portable devices. The latest leak not only confirms the existence of this handheld but also hints at impressive hardware capabilities.

Detailed Specifications for PS6 and Handheld Console

According to a YouTube video by Moore's Law Is Dead, which claims to have obtained information from an AMD proposal to Sony, the PS6 (codenamed "Orion") is expected to feature 40 to 48 RDNA 5 compute units, clocking speeds of up to 3 GHz or higher. The console's CPU will reportedly include eight Zen 6 cores, delivering a rasterization performance three times that of the PS5, along with significant improvements in ray-tracing capabilities.

The handheld device, codenamed "Canis," is rumored to feature a four-core Zen 6 CPU and 12 to 20 RDNA 5 compute units running at 1.6 to 2 GHz. It may also include expandable storage options with both MicroSD and M.2 SSD slots. Reports suggest a potential release window of Fall 2027 or early 2028 for both consoles.

Pricing and Market Strategy

Despite the PS5 Pro's premium pricing and potential price hikes due to tariffs, Sony aims to make the PS6 more affordable. The leak suggests a target price of $600 or less for the home console and $400 to $500 for the handheld. This strategy could help Sony avoid the pricing controversies seen with recent releases.

Latest Game Information

While these details remain unverified, they paint an exciting picture for Sony's future in the gaming industry. Fans can look forward to more powerful hardware and potentially competitive pricing as the next generation of consoles approaches.
