Sony has been somewhat slow to reveal new information about its upcoming PlayStation 5 console. It first revealed the PS5 specs, then showed off theDualSense controller, and finally unveiled the console design alongside a variety of its launch window games. And now Sony has revealed what PlayStation 5 game cases will look like when they start lining store shelves at some point later this year.
UsingSpider-Man: Miles Moralesas an example, PlayStation has revealed that PS5 game cases will look pretty similar to PS4 cases, with some notable differences. The PS5 game box will still be blue, but the strip at the top will be black and white instead of blue and white. The “Only on PlayStation” mark is gone, but otherwise the rest of the case looks like it will be pretty much the same. Itlookslike the PS5 game cases will be somewhat taller than the PS4 game cases, but no exact dimensions have been released and that’s just speculation at this time.

Sony choosing to useSpider-Man: Miles Moralesto unveil the PS5 game box art is telling. It is a good indication that the game will be aPS5 launch title, and it also shows Sony has confidence in it.
Spider-Manon PS4 was a hugely successful game, so it’s not all that surprising that Sony is usingSpider-Man: Miles Moralesas its flagship PS5 game at launch. However, fans should keep their expectations in check. Insomniac has been upfront that whileSpider-Man: Miles Moraleswill tell a complete story, the game is definitely going to be smaller in scale when compared to theSpider-ManPS4 game.
Apparently,Spider-Man: Miles Moraleswill be similar in scope toUncharted: The Lost Legacy. But even thoughSpider-Man: Miles Moralesis going to be a much shorter experience than theSpider-ManPS4 game, it’s still likely to be a high quality game. After all, Insomniac has produced one hit after another for years, and there’s no indication that its momentum is slowing down any time soon.
Hopefully Sony gives fans a look at some other PS5 game box art soon, likeHorizon Forbidden Westand some of the other titles on the way.
