Game time
In the early knockings between the pair, it would seem PlayStation 5 has the advantage. Cross-platform titles such as Call of Duty: Black Ops – Cold War, Grand Theft Auto 5 and Resident Evil Village have all been used to demonstrate the power of PS5.

On the new Xbox? Well, there’s not many triple-A games landing in 2020. In fact, Halo Infinite, the flagship game that’s billed as a system seller for Microsoft, has been postponed until 2021. So even though it might be technically more powerful console, there’s not much to play on the Xbox Series X.
Still, there’s time for Microsoft to spring a few surprises between now and November. At this stage, it’s anyone’s guess as to who will win the next-gen console war.
