Sony Interactive Entertainment has released the PlayStation 5 holiday advertisement ahead of the launch of the PS5 Slim later this month. The advertisement is called "Feel it Now on PlayStation 5."
"Our latest spot highlights the breadth of emotions players feel while exploring PS5 worlds, from a snapshot of fear, coming face to face with a Clicker from The Last of Us Part I, to the joy of meeting mooncalves from Hogwarts Legacy and befriending a frost wolf in Final Fantasy XVI," said Sony Interactive Entertainment senior vice president of global marketing Andrea Perez in a PlayStation Blog post.

The new models will launch in Japan on November 10 and in the US on PlayStation Direct and at select retailers sometime in November. A worldwide rollout will follow in the months after.
A new advert that was recently spotted reveals a new PS5 Slim bundle will include Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III for $499.99. The PS5 Slim with the Ultra HD Blu-ray disc drive will launch for the same price, so this essentially includes Modern Warfare III for free.
The new PS5 has been reduced in volume by over 30 percent and weight by 18 percent and 24 percent compared to the previous models. The new models will have four separate cover panels, with the top two being glossy and the bottom two being a matte finish.
If you purchase the PS5 Digital Edition you can buy the Ultra HD Blu-ray Disc Drive for PS5 later for 79.99 USD | 119.99 EURO | 99.99 GBP | 11,980 JPY.
A horizontal stand will be included in all models, while a vertical stand will be available separately for 29.99 USD | 29.99 EURO | 24.99 GBP | 3,980 JPY.

lame commercial
100% unbiased comment!!
Aren't your articles supposed to be accurate?
It isn't PS5 slim. Sony never called it that in any of their promotional Material.
You could just refer it to as the new PS5 model.
The PS4 “slim” box never said Slim.
Sony only called it the Slim in the E32016 presentation.
Is this really what you are caught up on? Lol The word slim is in quotes so maybe pay attention to this small detail.
The quotes weren't there when i posted it.
Seems they have added them later.
