Sony and Microsoft may be rivals in the console space, but that hasn’t stopped top Xbox boss Phil Spencer from sending some well wishes to PlayStation for its recent 20th anniversary.
@PlayStation Congrats on 20 years of success with PS. #20YearsOfPlay
— Phil Spencer (@XboxP3) December 4, 2014
The PlayStation brand celebrated its 20th anniversary on Wednesday, following the Original PlayStation’s release in Japan on December 3, 1994. The Xbox is a younger platform. It was initially introduced in 2001, meaning its 20th anniversary won’t come until 2021.
To celebrate the PlayStation’s 20th anniversary, Sony earlier this week announced a limited-edition PlayStation 4 modeled after the Original PlayStation. Only 12,300 units will be made, and you’ll be able to preorder one starting on Saturday, December 6.
