Sony has confirmed that it is working on a replacement for the PlayStation 4.

"There will be one more console generation and then after that, we will be streaming, all of us", Guillemot said.

While the company hasn't mentioned it by name, it is widely thought that the next generation console will be the PlayStation 5.

Sony isn't done with its traditional consoles just yet, however, as CEO Kenichiro Yoshida revealed to the Financial Times that a PlayStation 4 (PS4) successor is now in the works. The PlayStation 3 was also a commercial success. With the release of PS4 Pro and Xbox One X, the definition of "next generation" gaming hardware has shifted somewhat, so we're going to have to wait and see what this next generation hardware turns out to be.

According a recent leak regarding that commentary, "People in the games publishing industry with knowledge of Sony's plans for a future console said that early indications were that it might not represent a major departure from the PS4, and that the fundamental architecture would be similar".

The PlayStation 4 is the base model of Sony's current console, whereas the PlayStation 4 Pro is a visual step up. The PlayStation 5, to be specific. "As further understood herein, the original (legacy) software code of an entertainment asset such as a computer game created to be played on a relatively lower powered display can be preserved for use with model consoles with improved capability displays, while effecting remastering of the presentation through emulation principles".

A patent filed by Sony, "remastering by emulation", alludes to a new-fangled method for presenting updated textures in older titles so they can look their best on higher-definition displays.
