With the escalation of rumors about PlayStation 6 and the approach of the new generation of gaming platforms, recent reports indicate technical moves that may play a pivotal role in the shape of the upcoming platform. According to Korean sources, Samsung is entering advanced talks with AMD to supply chips with 2nm technology in a move that may represent a strong return of Samsung to the forefront of the advanced semiconductor market.
According to a report published by the Korean newspaper Sedaily, the two companies are working on developing a new generation of processors expected to fall within AMD’s EPYC Venice series, and information indicates that the details of the agreement may be finalized by January of next year after confirming that Samsung Foundry’s manufacturing process can meet the stringent performance and efficiency requirements imposed by AMD.
TSMC has always been the most prominent manufacturing partner for giants such as Apple, AMD and Tesla, but Samsung’s entry on the 2nm chip manufacturing line is a strong and unexpected competition, and during the past months Samsung Foundry has succeeded in securing important contracts with Apple and Tesla, which strengthened market confidence in its ability to implement advanced manufacturing processes and opened the door to broader partnerships with companies such as AMD.
Expectations and leaks indicate that the PlayStation 6 may be released around 2028, and with the continued historical cooperation between Sony and AMD in designing custom processors, 2nm chips may represent an ideal choice for the next platform in terms of a significant jump in performance, higher energy efficiency, and wider possibilities for graphics and artificial intelligence technologies.
So far, there is no official confirmation linking these processors directly to PlayStation 6, and everything that is traded falls within the scope of expectations and leaks, however, Samsung’s success in meeting AMD’s requirements may change the balance of the manufacturing market and give Sony a strong technical option to build the most powerful PlayStation generation to date.
