PlayStation 5 Logo refers to jokes about the unveiled emblem for Sony's upcoming PlayStation 5 gaming and home entertainment console, which is virtually identical to the previous two Playstation logos.

Origin

On January 6th, 2020, Sony talked about their sales for the PlayStation VR headset and unveiled the logo for their upcoming PlayStation 5 console at the CES Conference in Las Vegas (shown below).[1] The logo is virtually identical to the logos for the PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 4, with the only difference being the number in the logo.


Spread

After the reveal, fans poked fun at the reveal, joking about how lazy it appeared that the company had simply changed the number in the old logo. Twitter user @bagel_chris posted a video making fun of the change, gaining over 49,000 retweets and 132,000 likes (shown below, top). Twitter user @yakpuu_ posted a video joking that the start-up animation would have the logo reading "PIS5," gaining over 430 retweets and 1,200 likes (shown below, bottom).



Twitter user @MikeDrucker[2] joked that the simple logo probably "took hours" to approve, gaining over 1,000 retweets and 6,900 likes (shown below, left). User @dangrabham[3] also joked that the new logo "must've taken ages," gaining over 560 retweets and 3,100 likes (shown below, right). Jokes about the logo were covered by Complex.[4]

Did people really not expect this? My general rule of thumb is if they've used the logo twice and nothing bad happened with it, then they'll use it again.

Personally I like the original (2006) PS3 logo the best, with the PS2 logo in 2nd and OG PlayStation logo in 3rd.
