It looks like Sony was telling the truth when they said that we’d be hearing about the PlayStation 4’s release plans at gamescom as they have officially confirmed the release date for their new console.
Dated for November 15th in North America and November 29th in Europe, the system will come with a free 14 day PlayStation Plus membership, which gives you access to DriveClub PlayStation Plus Edition and ResoGun at launch. So far, the 14 day membership and ResoGun freebie is confirmed only for Europe, but we’ll let you know if this applies to North America as well.
What do you think of the release date? Let us know in the comments below.
