Good news to all gaming enthusiasts as the much anticipated Sony's upgraded console PlayStation 4.5, codenamed NEO by Sony insiders, will reportedly arrive on September, and may possibly be introduced officially during Paris Games Week event.

The September arrival news of the upgraded PlayStation 4 version sparked when a game distributor unintentionally leaked confidential information about PS4.5 NEO. During a press release, the French game distributor Innelec Multimedia said that PlayStation 4K NEO will arrive during the first half of their current financial year, which will be sometime in September since the middle of their financial year is set from  April 2016 to March 2017.

After realizing that they may have leaked an information pertaining to the soon-to-be-released upgraded console, Innelec Multimedia took down the said press release, and released a statement denying any official information about PS4k Neo launch. However, on the same statement released by the company via AFJV, the French game distributor acknowledged the fact that the upgraded PS4K version may possibly appear during 2016-2017 fiscal year.

Although the September arrival of PS4.5 NEO is yet to be confirmed by Sony, details about the supposed specs and features of the upgraded console made its way online. PlayStation 4.5 NEO will feature 4K gaming support and will likely be equipped with upgraded GPU, RAM and CPU. Rumor has it that the said console will be able to support VR format.

Meanwhile, since PS4.5 NEO will likely have a VR support, the release of the upgraded console version will be the same time or prior PlayStation VR will hit the shelves this year.
