Moreover, he added, “There will be a special edition for everyone.”
Revamped UI with Evolved OS
Along with the PS5 controller, MacLaurin has also promised an overhauled user interface for the PlayStation 5. As per The Verge report, MacLaurin described the new software interface as a very interesting evolution of the OS. He added that it is a “100 percent overhaul of the PS4 UI and some very different new concepts”. He further explained, “As it’s UI it’s practical first, but it’s a whole new visual language and a complete re-architecting of the user interface.” Moreover, it also noted that the new PS5 OS is “more subtle than flashy, but no pixel is untouched.”
