At the Future of Gaming event on June 11, Sony unveiled the PS5 design. And it appears that there will be not one, but two PS5 systems to choose from at launch.

The difference lies in the disk drive. The regular PS5 will have a disc drive, but the PS5 Digital Edition will not. Except for this difference, the two platforms appear to be identical.

The design of the PS5 is likely to be at both extremes. In fact, it is the opposite of Microsoft's aesthetic strategy in the Xbox Series X. Sony's system stands vertically, with two white, almost shell-like slabs branching off near the top, exposing the black core of the system, which is connected to the rest of the body by blue LED-studded blades. It's arguably the most ambitious hardware design Sony has ever shipped, and a far cry from the rather bleak PS4 Pro.

Naturally, the PS5 will ship with a series of accessories. In addition to the previously mentioned DualSense controller, there is an HD camera, Pulse 3D wireless headset, and Media Remote.

The headset in particular will benefit from the PS5's sophisticated audio technology, which lead system architect Mark Cerny described during a deep technical dive in March.

However, Sony Interactive Entertainment president Jim Ryan acknowledged that the PS5 is slated to launch this holiday season.

A variety of games were revealed at Sony's event, some ready to launch and others to be released at a later date; Spider-Man: Miles Morales will launch this holiday season, while Horizon: Also, Horizon: Zero Dawn" and "Horizon: Forbidden West," the sequel to "Horizon: Zero Dawn," were also released. Gran Turismo 7 was also unveiled earlier in the day, but again, no release date has been set.
