How Long Can You Expect A PlayStation 5 To Last?

Sony has a long history of supporting older consoles well after new ones launch, so the PS5 should stay viable for quite some time.

The PS4 still getting firmware updates and game support suggests the PS5’s lifespan could also be long.

Cross-generation support will eventually fade, but major last-gen holdouts are already being phased out.

Sony’s physical game support is expected to end in 2027, and the PS5 may overlap with the PS6 for years.
