As it does from time to time, Sony is conducting a round of PlayStation Network maintenance. This latest maintenance period will begin on May 23, starting at 3 PM local time, ending one hour later However, support for the PS3 for bigger budget titles may not last as long as support for the PS2 due to the fact that the PS4 is easier to develop for and the PS3's technical ceiling strongly In other words, it will become obsolete and not wanted. Even though the lifespan, i.e. the provided support for Xbox One can be difficult to determine now, it is expected that this gaming console would be good for use at least until 2025. Since gaming consoles are usually designed to last for about 5 years, this is also expected for Xbox One. Sony may well be focussed on PS5 gen only and PSVR2 games to tempt those still on PS4 to upgrade to PS5, but 3rd Party devs without a 'platform' to sell will still port the games they can to PS4 The PS4 launched at $400 in 2013, and the PS4 Pro also launched at $400 three years later. Sony still has $400 and $500 PS5 models based on the disc drive, and it remains to be seen whether or not This may come as sad news to PS4 owners still yet to get their hands on the PS5, but Sony has stated it intends to fix the supply issue of its latest machine as a "top priority." If it does indeed keep offering first-party PS4 games until 2025, that'll be five years of post-PS5 support, more than any previous console generation.

Group president Jim Ryan ruffled feathers a few years ago by declaring that his company ā€œbelieves in generationsā€ – only for the vast majority of PS5’s first-party lineup to also launch on PlayStation history suggests a well-supported PS4 until decade’s end, with a few more years of niche releases and lingering support.
