Sony has launched a trio of new television commercials to mark the five-year anniversary of the PlayStation 5, bringing the console’s most thrilling and surprising gameplay moments to life. These advertisements, titled “The Greatest Stunt Jump Ever,” “The Unexpected Catch,” and “Everyday Problems in Extraordinary Vehicles,” will begin airing today, showcasing the kind of jaw-dropping experiences that have defined the PS5 generation.
Isabelle Tomatis, Vice President of Global Marketing, explained the thinking behind the campaign. She noted that over the last half-decade, players have consistently expressed feelings of amazement, thrill, and surprise at the incredible things they’ve encountered while using the console. This flood of player emotion served as the direct inspiration for the new ads, which aim to bottle that lightning, the split-second, unforgettable instances that can only happen on a PS5.
The console originally launched in the United States on November 12, 2020, with a global rollout following just one week later. Alongside the broadcast and online spots, Sony will also run physical marketing activations in several key countries that mirror the themes from the commercials. These real-world events could include sightings like UFOs touching down in Australia, Spain, and Germany, or the appearance of mysterious creatures in Mexico, Italy, and the United Kingdom.
The new campaign arrives as the PlayStation 5 continues to build on its strong player community and celebrated game library. By focusing on those shared, spectacular in-game moments, Sony hopes to remind everyone what makes the platform unique.
