Nextgen consoles are coming… but the price might change everything.

With RAM shortages, exploding component costs, and AI soaking up hardware supply, the next wave of consoles is shaping up to be very different from what gamers are used to. We break down the latest rumors around the PS6, the next Xbox, and the Steam Machine — and why Xbox’s strategy might be the riskiest move we’ve seen in years.

PlayStation is reportedly waiting until 2028–2030, betting that RAM prices will normalize. Xbox, on the other hand, wants to launch as early as 2027 with a PC-hybrid console that could cost $1,100–$1,500 depending on the SKU.

Is that bold… or completely out of touch?

If consoles start costing as much as gaming PCs, does the traditional console market survive?

Would you buy a $1,000+ console — or is that where you’re done?
