We’ll never know if Sony had any plans to unveil the PlayStation 5 in February, as some insiders and leakers said, and it’s all thanks to the coronavirus scare the prompted the company to pull out of trade shows even before the events were canceled (MWC) or postponed (GDC). These decisions were clear indications that Sony isn’t a fan of big press events that involve plenty of people during the outbreak of a new contagious disease. And if Sony isn’t keen on attending other big events, it surely won’t organize any of its own.
Microsoft, on the other hand, already unveiled the design of the new Xbox Series X at the Games Awards this past December. Then last week, the company surprised fans with a blog post that revealed plenty of the Series X specs and features. The PS5 does deserve a proper launch event, especially considering that the PS5 design is still a secret. But depending on how fast the coronavirus outbreak is contained, Sony might be forced to unveil the console with the help of online-only events or regular old press releases.
