The PS5 keynote kicks off at 1pm PT / 4pm ET / 9pm BST, and we'll be bringing you everything you need to know, and what it means, live as we go.

Price wars

And it's the price of the PS5 that will be examined under a microscope after Microsoft revealed competitive prices for Xbox Series S and Xbox Series X a week earlier. Both PS5 variants are expected to be more expensive than their Xbox counterparts, unless Sony surprises it a bit to bring its prices more in line with its rival's. As a reminder, the Series S is priced at €299.99 / £249.99, while the Series X is priced at €499 / £449 / AU$749, and both consoles will be available on November 10. .
