A lot of gaming fans have been highly anticipating Sony's announcement regarding the exact PlayStation 4 release date. Now that it has already been revealed, the upcoming $400 gaming console is set to compete with a rival product, the Xbox One from Microsoft, which is also expected to arrive in November.

Moreover, aside from unleashing the much-awaited PlayStation 4 release date during its press conference at Gamescom 2013, Sony also took this chance to reveal a lot of new games for the PS4 and Vita. According to a report from Dallas News, most of them are indie titles that will be "exclusive "at launch" for PlayStation." The games include Minecraft, Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number, Rogue Legacy, Wasteland Kings and Everybody's Gone To The Rapture.

PlayStation 4 has exceeded 1 million pre-orders worldwide already. In fact, some major retailers such as Amazon and Toys R Us stopped the pre-orders for Sony PlayStation 4.
