Sony patents its own removable PlayStation 5 cases

After suing several manufacturers for the creation of customizable PS5 cases, Sony has finally shown its true intention behind these movements, patented its own design of removable and interchangeable side panels. Something that, beyond the arrival of own plates, could also open the door to license agreements for third-party companies to create and sell their own.

Originally submitted last November 5, 2020A few days before the official launch of the console, it appears that the document was not published on the USPTO website until November 16 of this year, possibly the date on which its approval was achieved.
