This generation of consoles has gotten pretty interesting recently, with both Sony and Microsoft now planning to launch significantly more powerful mid-generation consoles that offer full backwards compatibility with what is currently out there. While having a more powerful PS4 on the market might be cause for concern for original PS4 owners, Sony's WorldWide Studios head has said that the PS4 Neo won't shorten the PS4's life span.
Speaking with the German website, Gameswelt.TV, (translated by Videogamer) Shuhei Yoshida commented that “The new high-end PS4 is still PS4, so the lifecycle is not going to be shorter”, unfortunately though, Yoshida wouldn't go into more details on what Sony's plans are for its more powerful hardware.
Over the last few months, plenty of leaks have pointed towards the PS4 Neo and its specifications, which will be more powerful than what is currently available but not quite as powerful as what Microsoft is coming out with at the end of next year.
Reports earlier this week also indicated that while Sony is being very quiet on the PS4 Neo for now, it is still apparently releasing later this year, which would mean the launch would happen very close to the release of the PlayStation VR headset.
KitGuru Says: All of the leaks were leading up to Sony announcing PS4 Neo at E3 this year but after Microsoft's conference and the announcement of Project Scorpio, things have been very quiet on Sony's side. Perhaps Sony is still locking down its policies moving forward, after all, it doesn't want to annoy those who have already invested in the PS4 this generation by leaving them behind.
Sorry to disappoint don’t think neo is coming out this year not without showing it at e3 I think sonys gonna release it after the Scorpio.
Interesting point of view there. However, if what we know so far is all true, then Neo is already in the hands of developers and games are being worked on to support it. Holding it back until the end of 2017 or early 2018 now would be a huge waste of money, especially with the Neo hitting a lower spec than Scorpio.
well if you think about it the PSVR has capabilities and hardware that supersede the performance of the current Ps4. So therefore they would have to release the ps4 neo in order to ensure the best experience possible with the PSVR.
Actually, Andrew House already said that they simply wanted their E3 presentation to be about the games and they did not have enough game footage for Neo to show off so it was not at E3. That reason does not rule out a release this year since dev kits have not been available for long.

Would be a waste of money for whoever upgrades their PS4 to a Neo, but better spending would be if you upgrade from a GTX970 to a high end GPU next year.
Neo needs to, at the very least, spec match the new Xbox, or it will be a complete disaster.
