But next-gen console may not hit Europe till 2014
Sony will launch its next generation console, PlayStation 4, in the US this year during the build-up to Christmas, it has revealed.
The "Holiday 2013" release date is a quick turnaround given that the system has only just been officially announced, with Sony stating that further reveals surrounding the hardware capabilities will also be unveiled in the run up to launch.
It also stated it would unveil more details at a later date about games from third-party developers and publishers, indies and SCE Worldwide Studios over the next few months.
Despite a 2013 launch for the PS4 in the US and Japan, the UK’s release date may yet slip into 2014.
Speaking to Eurogamer (http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2013-02-21-sony-sounds-uncertain-about-european-ps4-launch-timing), Sony Worldwide Studios boss Shuhei Yoshida said it was too early to announce if the console could be launched simultaneously worldwide.
