With E3 2016 starting next week, Sony Interactive Entertainment president, Andrew House, confirmed that the rumored PlayStation 4 Neo is real, though it will not make an appearance in next week’s event.
“It is intended to sit alongside and complement the standard PS4,” House said of the PlayStation 4 Neo, which would be more expensive than the current $350 version. “We will be selling both [versions] through the life cycle.”
According to House, the upcoming console will target ‘hardcore gamers’, as well those who have a 4K television set looking for more high-resolution content.
Fans looking forward to know if PlayStation 4 Neo will make a debut next week, prepare to be disappointed as it’s not likely to happen.
“We want to ensure we have a full range of the best experiences on the new system that we can showcase in their entirety,” Andrew House said.
As for games for both consoles, he said, “All games will support the standard PS4 and we anticipate all or a very large majority of games will also support the high-end PS4.”
