But from a gameplay perspective, there is - IMO - no need for a PlayStation 6 for another few years. Especially with the limp Xbox is-it-isn't-it launch .  July 2026 Update : Sony managed a cannon-fire sized self-inflicted injury by announcing the end of physical releases across the end of the PS5 era and the launch of the PS6.

 Just behind PhotoKano was Kyoukai Senjou no Horizon Portable on the PSP which sold 26,000 copies. Here's a video of either a very bad camera-user or slightly drunk Japanese game opening and playing the limited edition version.
