While Sony hasnât yet officially announced the PS4, no doubt itâs coming. The PlayStation 3 will get a successor. According to a âtrusted sourceâ, work has started on PlayStation 4 games.
Website Develop reported that âvarious game projects are at very early stagesâ. Apparently, Sonyâs in-house studios are starting development first, which makes obvious sense.
It seems like Sony is just starting on the PS4, and the console appears to be a few years out. We probably wonât see anything until 2013, at the earliest. Next year, Sony will most likely focus on the PS Vita.
This past May, a senior Sony executive said work had begun on a future platformâa comment Sony later said referred to the Vita.
