By Aaron Mamiit June 1, 2020

Sony has canceled the PlayStation 5 event set for June 4 amid the growing social unrest in the United States.

“While we understand gamers worldwide are excited to see PS5 games, we do not feel that right now is a time for celebration and ,for now, we want to stand back and allow more important voices to be heard,” Sony’s official Playstation account tweeted.

The online event, titled The Future of Gaming, was to focus on some of the games that will be released alongside the PlayStation 5 later this year. Gamers were hoping to catch a glimpse of what the upcoming console would offer, but potential details such as its design and price tag will have to wait a bit longer.

Sony’s cancellation of the PlayStation 5 event follows a similar move by Google, which postponed its planned livestream for the launch of the Android 11 beta.

GTA 5 cheats: codes and phone numbers PS4, PS5, Xbox, and PC

A slam-dunk of a game for the talented developers at Rockstar, Grand Theft Auto V has been out for several years now, but it’s still an extremely popular title. We’re also guessing there’s some renewed interest in the game because the world knows we’re getting a Grand Theft Auto VI in the somewhat-near future. If you’ve ever played a GTA game, you’ll know the going can get a little tough from time to time. This is why it’s nice to live in a world with cheat codes.

Whether you just want to have a ton of fun with unlimited health and ammunition, or you’re seriously struggling with a certain section of the game, we’ve rounded up all the cheat codes you’ll need to know for GTA V, for platforms including PS4, PS5, Xbox, and PC.
How to use GTA 5 cheats
There are a few ways to enter GTA 5 cheat codes. The first and easiest is to use your cellphone. You can open your cellphone by pressing Up on the D-pad. From there, enter the corresponding number, and the cheat will fire. You can also classically input cheats by following a specific button combination. The combinations are the same across PlayStation and Xbox, but we've split them up to account for their different button-naming conventions, so it should feel more natural reading and entering them.

All cross-platform games (PS5, Xbox Series X, PS4, Xbox One, Switch, PC)

Cross-platform support is becoming more important in the world of video games. Multiplayer hits like Call of Duty: Warzone 2.0 and Fortnite have pushed crossplay into the limelight, and now most AAA multiplayer games release with at least partial cross-platform support. Finding every cross-platform game is no easy feat, though, so we did the hard work to bring you a comprehensive list of games that support crossplay.

Unfortunately, there aren't any rules when it comes to crossplay, so each game handles the feature a little differently. To make matters more confusing, certain backward-compatible games on the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X still support crossplay on the most recent hardware, even if there isn't an official release for that hardware.
