Sony PlayStation 5 event postponed in respect of ongoing protests

Sony planned to launch the PlayStation 5 on June 4 but has decided to postpone the event. In a simple statement released on Twitter, Sony said, “While we understand gamers worldwide are excited to see PS5 games, we do not feel that right now is a time for celebration and for now, we want to stand back and allow more important voices to be heard.” 

The company defers holding the launch for its next-generation console as numerous protests against police brutality and racism are happening in the US, Canada, and other parts of the world. The protests were sparked by the death of the American George Floyd in the Minneapolis police's hands.
