The PS5 game reveal event was huge for PlayStation fans, as Sony pulled the curtain back on a number of exciting next-generation titles. There was so much to take in during the event that some things flew under the radar a bit, like Sony’s unveiling of thePS5startup screen.
Randomly during the PS5 game reveal event, Sony showed off what appears to be the PS5 startup screen. It included a message to “See important health and safety warnings in the Settings menu,” and then prompted players to push the PlayStation button on theirDualSense controller. In the video, we can hear the tone that sounds when players press the PlayStation button, but then the screen fades to black, stopping short of revealing the PS5 dashboard or home screen.

The PS5 startup video and animation looks pretty sleek, and has so far been well-received by the PlayStation community. And while it may not seem like a big reveal to some, it’s yet another piece to the PS5 puzzle. Now fans just need to learn what thePS5 dashboardlooks like, how much the console will be, and what day it will launch.
PlayStation fans wanting answers about thePS5 price and release datestill have some time to wait. Sony has given no indication as to when it will be revealing this information, but it’s possible it will happen at a Summer Game Fest event later this summer. Usually console price and release date announcements coincide with them being put up for pre-order as well, so that should be a really exciting day for PS5 fans.
In the meantime, the PS5 startup screen reveal isn’t the only thing that flew under the radar during the PS5 game reveal event. Sony also quietly made the announcement that all PS5 consoles will come pre-loaded with a free game at launch in the form ofAstro’s Playroom. Developed by Sony’s talented Japan Studio,Astro’s Playroommay be small in scale, but it should provide a great tech demo for the PS5’s capabilities.
Fans now have a much clearer picture of what the PS5 will entail, but there is still a lot left to learn about the next-generation console. Stay tuned for more information in the coming months.
