  "textContent": "Sony is currently working hard on the PlayStation 6, and we have heard many rumors about the console in recent months. However, the latest claim is one that will get PlayStation fans quite excited: the PS6 could offer full backward compatibility support for all PS4 and PS5 games.\n\nMany of you will remember the disappointment when later models of the PlayStation 3 no longer played PS2 discs. Similar situations occurred in subsequent generations, but a new leak suggests that Sony wants to turn the PS6 into an all-encompassing gaming powerhouse.\n\n## Will There Be Backward Compatibility at PS6 Launch?\n\nImage: Sony\n\nIn the Broken Silicon Podcast episode published by Moore’s Law Is Dead on April 14, it was claimed that the PS6 would come with backward compatibility features. According to information shared at the 2:28:20 mark of the program, this is clearly stated in a leaked old document regarding the console's technical specifications.\n\nTom, the leaker, emphasized that the document explicitly mentions PS4 and PS5 backward compatibility support for 'Canis' (the PS6's codename). Furthermore, the claims are not limited to the home console; as we previously mentioned in our news about the PS6 handheld console, a potential portable device Sony is working on could also run PS6, PS5, and PS4 games.\n\nIf these claims turn out to be true, the PS6 will become an indispensable choice, especially for players with a large physical game library. However, it should be noted that these documents could be several years old. This means Sony might have changed its strategy since then. In fact, considering analyst reports suggesting that the PS6 release date could be delayed, it is worth approaching this information with caution until an official announcement is made.\n\n_For the latest_ gaming guides_and_ system requirements_, you can follow GamingAlly on_ Instagram_,_ Twitter_and Google News._",
