A new PlayStation 5 model will hit shelves just in time for the holiday season, and this new format will take up less space on the shelf while offering more space for your data beginning in November.
The slimmed-down console will affect both existing models of the PS5--the all-digital version and the version with the disc drive--when they launch. The new PS5s have been "reduced in volume by more than 30%, and weight by 18% and 24% compared to the previous models," according to the official PlayStation Blog post, and both will offer a 1TB SSD for increased storage.
