Anticipation for the PlayStation 5 is increasing and many fans are eagerly awaiting more details about the console. While many of the technical aspects remain rumors, there has been some communication from Sony about the console. Most recently, Sony revealed the PS5 logo and it wasn’t the evolution that many fans had hoped for. Despite breaking Instagram records, the new logo did not present to much change. However, an artist has provided fans with an incredible logo that many will wish was the new emblem.
The PlayStation logos have become iconic and this is undoubtedly because of the success of the consoles they signify. The PlayStation consoles are the best selling home consoles of all time and with this success, the logos for each console has become instantly recognizable. While the PS3 and PS4 didn’t have radical changes, the PS5 following suit has disappointed some fans who were bored with the design.
The logo by Instagram artist bosslogic uses the logo from the original PlayStation and uses its reflection to make a 5 symbol. This is an original idea that has impressed many fans. It also has two original color schemes one is black and blue, the other is white and red. Both images suit the aesthetics of previous logos despite using new color schemes. Many of the comments on the post claim it is better than the original, although opinion is divided about whether the white or black background is better for the logo.
While PlayStation consoles of the past have received universal acclaim, the new PS5 logo evoked a mixed reaction. While a logo doesn’t decide the success of a console, Sony will surely hope that future announcements inspire more excitement amongst players. With that said, Sony has managed to provide a successful console with every generation and it would be very surprised if that changed now. The console looks to have invested in exclusive games and this will surely help the PS5.
Many are waiting for a PlayStation event to announce more details about the PS5 but in the meantime, the prospect of playing The Last of Us 2 and Ghost of Tsushima will excite fans. It will be interesting to see what changes are made that make the PS5 stand apart. While the PS5 logo may have been redesigned better by an outside party, the console itself will likely be another impressive entry in the PlayStation franchise.
