Designers react to the new PS5 logo (and it's not pretty)

The new PlayStation 5 logo has been revealed, to much fanfare, at CES 2020. To say the moment was an anticlimax would be an understatement. In short, the new PS5 logo looks exactly like the old PS4 logo. Which, to be fair, looked an awful lot like the PS3 logo. See it in all its glory above.

Sony has been slowly releasing information about its next console over the past few months. It's due to be released "Holiday 2020". Sadly, this latest revelation wasn't quite as exciting as we might have hoped – Sony has clearly decided the logo wasn't broke, and no fixing was required (for more enduring brand marks, check out our guide to the best logos of all time).
