re has been a listing on Amazon’s UK site suggesting that PlayStation fans may end up paying a premium for next-generation console. According to a report, a user was able to pre-order PS5 console for £599 (approx. $750), however, re haven't been any details shared on actual store link.

However, that is t only red flag as first listing was for console titled '2020 Dummy ASIN Sony PS5 1 2TB,' while user who claimed to have pre-ordered PS5 actually went for a '2020 Dummy ASIN Sony PS5 2 2TB.' It also seems a bit strange considering that re have been two functionally identical listings for console; one was a PS5 1, while or was a PS5 2, and both carried same SSD.

re have also been a number of dummy listings for PS5 games that appeared from different publishers on Amazon UK. listings have been displayed in below format. Here are some examples:

What does PS5 look like?

PS5 is set to launch later this year during  Holiday 2020; however, re hasn't been any indication from Sony on what console might look like. above leaks have only hinted at price of PS5 and did t carry a picture of  console. However, leaks should only be treated as blind placeholders at moment.

Sony has also scheduled a PS5 reveal event for June 11 at 1 PM PT. live event will debut a slew of games titles that will be available on PlayStation 5 at launch later this year. It is also likely that company gives fans first look of console.
