Sony has yet to officially announce a launch date for PS5<\/strong>, outside of the mysterious “holiday” target. But, at least according to this job advert, the console is coming in October.<\/p>\n Spotted by @Nibellion<\/a>, a new job ad on Rikunabi<\/a> seeks some sort of procurement manager who will help select the best components from suppliers worldwide for use in PS5 manufacturing.<\/p>\n Buried in the job description, however, is this curious detail: “… to create the PlayStation 5 scheduled to be released in October 2020.”<\/p>\n The job posting appears to be legit, as far as one can judge from a Google-translated page. There doesn’t appear to be a date as to when the post was made, however.<\/p>\n Nonetheless, everyone naturally assumed a November launch date for PS5, similar to PS4. October, while a bit too early for holiday, could still work, particularly if it’s very late in the month.<\/p>\n It goes without saying that this isn’t solid confirmation of the PS5 launch date, as plans can change, particularly amidst the current global pandemic. The information may also simply be outdated.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/assets.vg247.com\/current\/\/2020\/05\/ps5_job_october_launch_grab_1.jpg\")
