While PlayStation is no stranger to having spokespeople featured in their advertising, they seem to have stepped up their game for the newly released PlayStation 5. Just a few weeks ago, Sony published advertising and

published on Adult Swim’s

features the network’s two biggest animated stars, Rick and Morty.

ads from the PS3 era), fans could be seeing a return for the PS5.

Also, with

no confirmation

as to when

Rick and Morty

season 5 will happen, the two titular characters appearing in Sony marketing material - especially material featured directly on Adult Swim - could mean a
