Wal-Mart intensified Playstation 4 release date rumors after announcing the next-generation console will be available for sale in November, according to an item description listed on its website.

"The PS4 console will ship free on release date this November," Wal-Mart writes on its item description of the PS4.

"Playstation 4 is the best place to play with dynamic, connected gaming, powerful graphics and speed, intelligent personalization, deeply integrated social capabilities and innovative second-screen features."

Although the Playstation 4 release date is expected to be announced at the Gamescom conference in Germany this August, Wal-Mart might have given away Sony's long-awaited secret.

Playstation 4 release date rumors are also flaring after it was revealed that Sony might be looking to include a television service on its PS4 to compete with the Microsoft and Nintendo.

Just weeks after the 2013 Electronic Entertainment Expo came to a close with little mention of non-gaming functionality in the next iteration of the Playstation Network, Sony secretly filed a new patent application with the United States Patent and Trademark Office which seems to confirm a Playstation TV service, the International Digital Times reports.

Sony's move to include a television service on the Playstation 4 before its release date could also undermine Xbox One's attempts to draw in gamers with its own service.

And with a release date that is rumored to be earlier than that of the Xbox One, adding a television service to the Playstation 4 could continue to shift the balance of power in the next-generation console war.
