I'd put money on 2024 at the earliest. Don't want to ruin a holiday game sales season by basically giving customers a reason not to buy stuff this holiday and save for the fancy new console. Announcing early 2024 will allow people to still do that saving over the year (assuming a holiday 2024 launch) while not potentially sabotaging this year's sales.
