News & Reviews:   PlayStation 5 Malaysia pre-order

Merdeka Day is just around the corner and as always, you will see plenty of products going on sale. Although it's not the first time for Sony Entertainment Interactive Asia to do this, the PlayStation 5 models that are on sale this time are the slim variants.

The PlayStation 5 sales are looking to be another successful product. According to BusinessWire, the PS5 has been sold over 50 million times since its debut in November 2020. While it started scarcely any thanks to scalpers, the issue is long gone and continues to thrive, especially this year. 

When it comes to streaming games, they can be usually found on Twitch and Discord in the PC community instead of on consoles. However, Sony is going to change that as it announces cloud streaming for the PlayStation 5. 

In conjunction with the upcoming Merdeka Day this month, Sony Interactive Entertainment just announced its Merdeka Sale for the PlayStation 5 console, games and other accessories. It will begin tomorrow (18 August) and ends on the national day of Malaysia. 

When Sony took the stage at the CES 2023, Jim Ryan, CEO of Sony Interactive Entertainment announced some good news. At the 57-minute mark in the press conference video here, he said getting a PlayStation 5 (PS5) should be much easier now.

It has been over two years since the Sony PlayStation 5 (PS5) was released, but thanks to scalpers and chip shortages, the gaming console hasn't been easy to get until this day. That said, we may have a hint of its following lineup as Hideaki Nishino, Vice-President Senior of Sony may have hinted at a possibility of a PS5 Pro.

Back in a few months ago, Sony was very upfront against third-party sellers on customising the PlayStation 5 cover. While the company did succeed in winning legal rights, there are still some more third-party sellers doing the same thing by going around a loophole.

Finally, after a month of announcing the Sony PlayStation 5 availability in Malaysia, the next-gen gaming console will officially launch tomorrow as advertised. The PS5 proved to be popular as pre-order units got sold out very quickly and Sony Malaysia would like to remind everyone that there won't be any units available for in-store purchase.

While Malaysian gamers are still waiting for the PlayStation 5 arrival on 11 December 2020, we just came across a piece of funny news of a Taiwanese man who owned one before. The news travelled all across the Southeast Asia region a week ago after this young man shared his story on his Facebook account.

As Malaysians continue to wait for the official PlashSpeed PlayStation 5 by Sony Malaysia (or is it PlayStation Asia?), the first wave is waiting eagerly to get their hands on the next gaming console on 12 November (or 19 November, depending on your location). However, the company just made their announcement that the PS5 won't be appearing in selected stores at all.
