The Consumer Electronics Show is officially underway, and it’s providing fans with an early look at what to expect in the world of technology and beyond. Sony had one of the most highly-anticipated panels at the event, as audiences were curious to see what the company would unveil — especially with regards to the elusive PlayStation 5. Shortly after the panel kicked off on Monday night, fans got their answer, and it ended up not actually being a lot. In addition to a few specs and a release window of “this holiday”, Sony mainly unveiled the logo for the PlayStation 5, which is simply a “PS5” in the company’s signature font.

Groundbreaking
big news from Sony: The PlayStation 5 can be abbreviated to PS5. this is a big deal since it allows you to just type out PS5 instead of having to type out the full name, PlayStation 5

Shocking
Sony has revealed the PS5 logo. This is quite a BOLD and SHOCKING design choice. We’ll see how this works out for them in the coming months, but right now I fear this is just.. too different
