Sony has released a teaser site that appears to indicate the upcoming announcement of its next game console.
The site includes a video inviting viewers to “see the future” as the PlayStation cross, square, circle and triangle symbols glow with electricity.

The announcement will be revealed on February 20 at 6pm ET (11pm GMT).
Sony’s next console – codenamed Orbis and more commonly referred to as PlayStation 4 – will reportedly use new user accounts and a new controller design.
It was recently claimed that Sony’s next console will feature 4K resolution support in line with a rumoured new range of Sony TVs.
Additional hardware details were leaked last year, while EA’s Frank Gibeau revealed that he had seen both the PS4 and new Xbox, and suggested that the consoles would introduce gaming to a further billion people.
Sony CEO Kaz Hirai recently hinted that the company’s next console could arrive after Microsoft’s next Xbox system.
