Reportedly, Sony Is Currently Developing the PlayStation 5 Pro

In a recent post, I spoke about news on Sony’s next-generation console, the PlayStation 6, reportedly set to be released in approximately four years.

This information was revealed in a series of documents published by the UK government’s Competition and Markets Authority, which examines Microsoft’s potential takeover of Activision Blizzard.

The documents are part of Sony’s defense against the acquisition. While the actual release date was redacted, other details in the document revealed the timeline.

This news is likely to be met with mixed reactions from gamers who have just managed to get their hands on a PS5. Since its release, the PS5 has been notoriously difficult to purchase, with every restock announcement quickly resulting in the consoles selling out in minutes.

For those fortunate enough to own a PS5 for some time, the news may be disappointing, as they will have to wait seven years before the next generation of Sony consoles is available.

Fortunately, there is some good news for those looking for an upgrade. Rumors have been circulating that a PS5 Pro model is currently in the works. This information was leaked by Insider Gaming, a relatively new gaming publication that specializes in insider information and leaks.

While details about the PS5 Pro are scarce, it is expected to be released in 2024, and the console is rumored to provide a significant performance boost.

This seems to be a wise decision from Sony. The stock of PS5s is finally starting to return to normal, meaning that those who have been waiting patiently can finally purchase the console.

However, for those still waiting to make a purchase or looking for an upgrade, the promise of a more capable unit may be enough to encourage them to make the purchase. This could potentially result in a mid-season boost in sales of consoles and PS5 games.

Final Words

While the news of the PS6’s release being delayed until 2027 may disappoint some gamers, the rumors of a PS5 Pro model in the works offer hope for those looking for an upgrade.

With a potential release date of 2024, the PS5 Pro is expected to offer a significant performance boost.

This could be a smart move by Sony, as the release of a new console just as the stock of the PS5 is starting to stabilize could result in a boost in sales for the company.

Only time will tell whether this strategy pays off for Sony, but for now, gamers can look forward to the potential release of the PS5 Pro in the coming years.
