<p>Sony<a href="https://twitter.com/PlayStation/status/1267525525825900549?s=20" target="_blank"> recently released</a> some surprising news that shocked a lot of fans stating that the PS5 reveal event scheduled for this Thursday, June 4th, would be delayed due to recent events.</p>

<h3 style="text-align: center">Full Details</h3>
<p>Unlike Microsoft&#8217;s Xbox Series X, the PlayStation 5 was a console that we&#8217;ve had barely any information on with only small <a href="https://bagogames.com/sony-reveals-ps5-logo-and-other-hardware-features/">announcements from Sony</a> at far intervals. The next-gen console was just recently announced to be revealed this Thursday, but due to the renewed resistance to racial discrimination and the mistreatment of Black people in the United States,<a href="https://bagogames.com/playstation-studios-announced-will-launch-alongside-ps5-in-holiday-2020/"> Sony</a> changed their plans.</p>
<p>The event was meant to reveal all the details of the PS5 fans have desperately craved, including the look and architecture of the console. It&#8217;s no surprised a lot of fans are upset by this, but Sony stated that the event would be poorly timed due to the current circumstances.</p>
<p>The full statement from the PlayStation twitter account can be read below:</p>
<blockquote><p>We have decided to postpone the PlayStation 5 event scheduled for June 4th.<br />
While we understand gamers worldwide are excited to see PS5 games, we do not feel right now is a time for celebration, and for now, we want to stand back and allow more important voices to be heard.</p></blockquote>
<p>With so many gaming events and online conferences happening this month, it wouldn&#8217;t be a surprise if other companies and platforms were to follow in Sony&#8217;s footsteps to support the Black Lives Matter campaign.</p>
<p>The PlayStation 5 reveal event is yet to be given a new release date, and we are unsure if this will affect the games meant to be showcased this month nor if a new event will be scheduled.</p>
