LTR]PLAYSTATION®4 (PS4™) DESIGN AND PRICE UNVEILED,
AVAILABLE AT $ 399 IN U.S. AND AT € 399 IN EUROPE
PS4™’s Striking, Modern Design Unveiled at E3 Press Conference, Along with Extensive
Lineup of Innovative Software Titles That Deliver Gaming Experiences Never Before Possible
Tokyo, June 11, 2013 –Sony Computer Entertainment Inc. (SCEI) today announced that the
PlayStation®4 (PS4™) (CUH-1000A series) computer entertainment system will come in “Jet
Black” color and will be available this holiday season in North America and Europe at a
recommended retail price (RRP) of US$ 399, Canada$ 399, € 399, and £ 349.
The design of PS4 made its public debut at the PlayStation® press conference on June
10, 2013, which kicked off the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) in Los Angeles. PS4 will
also be displayed this week at the Sony Computer Entertainment America booth at E3, one of
the world's largest video game exhibitions.
The internal design architecture of the PS4 system, from the optical drive and power
supply unit to the cooling mechanism, has been pursed to keep the body as slim and light as
possible to dramatically enhance the flexibility of the design.
The PS4 features a simple but modern design accentuated by its linear flat form factors.
The surface of the PS4 body is subdivided into four sections, as if four blocks are stacked
together making one figure, with disc slot, buttons, power indicator and vent placed within the 2-2-2-2 PS4™ DESIGN AND PRICE UNVEILED
slim interspace created between the sections. The power indicator designed atop the body will
glow in a PlayStation blue color when the power button is turned on. The foreside and
backside of the body is slightly angled; it not only gives users easy access to the power button
and disc slot when placed either horizontally or vertically but also helps conceal the connected
cables. The black-themed color along with the matte and gloss finish adds a sophisticated look
to the PS4 system as the next generation entertainment system and will fit perfectly wherever it
is placed.
PS4 peripherals include the stand-alone Wireless Controller for PlayStation®4
(DUALSHOCK®4) and PlayStation®Camera, which will be available at launch for RRP of
US$ 59, Canada$ 59, € 59 and £ 54, and US$ 59, Canada$ 59, € 49 and £ 44 respectively.
Both accessories will come in “Jet Black” color.
The upcoming software lineup for PS4 from software developers and publishers will
include Destiny™ from Bungie, Inc., in partnership with Activision Publishers, Inc., Diablo®
III from Blizzard Entertainment, Inc., KINGDOM HEARTS III and FINAL FANTASY® XV
from SQUARE ENIX, Assassin’s Creed® IV Black Flag™ and Watch_Dogs™ from Ubisoft
Entertainment, NBA® 2K14 from 2K Sports, The Elder Scrolls® Online from Bethesda Games
Studios and Mad Max ™ from Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment, totaling more than 110
titles. PS4 has earned great support from a wide variety of game publishers, including many
indie developers. Since February 2013, the number of developers joining has increased from
126 to 505.
Furthermore, from SCE Worldwide Studios, more than 30 titles, including 12 brand
new IP, are under development, including Killzone: Shadow Fall, Knack, inFAMOUS: Second
Son, #DRIVECLUB and The Order: 1886.
*1 Out of over the 30 titles under development, 20
titles will be available within a year from the PS4 launch.
SCE will vigorously promote PS4 towards the launch as the next generation computer
entertainment platform through further introduction of peripherals and attractive software
lineup.
