Sony has announced an event later this month to discuss "the future of PlayStation", reigniting rumours that the company is set to unveil the PlayStation 4.
Sony has not said whether the event, which is being held in New York on February 20, will see the launch of a new PlayStation console. A spokesman told Reuters: "We will be talking about the Playstation business."
That has not stopped speculation that the PS4 is about to be announced. The Wall Street Journal reports that, according to unnamed sources, the new console will be announced this month and released before Christmas.
Sony's last PlayStation event, in January 2011, was used to reveal the PlayStation Vita handheld console. A similar meeting, in 2005, was held to demonstrate the prototype PS3 and another, in 1999, saw the unveiling of the PS2.
