Launch Date and Preorder
The PS5 Pro will be available from November 7, 2024, with preorders starting on September 26.
Updates and Enhancements
Sony shares that the PS5 Pro contains significant upgrades over older versions. The GPU contains 67% more compute units and the memory is 28% faster, which is expected to result in better rendering and a smoother gaming experience. The processing speed is three times faster than the PS5 base model, with improved light refractions and reflection. The device also uses AI-driven upscaling in PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution technology to display enhanced image quality. The PS5 Pro-Game Boost is a new feature that enhances the performance of 8,500 backward-compatible games. The consoles have the latest Wi-Fi 7 wireless technology and also support 8K gaming.
Pricing and Availability
The PS5 Pro is priced at USD 699.99, GBP 699.99, EUR 799.99, and JPY 119,980 (including tax), which some fans considered too high. The console will have the same height, width, and overall design as the PS5, and will include a 2TB SSD and DualSense wireless controller. A separate Ultra HD Blu-ray Disc Drive can be purchased separately. The latest console will be available through various retailers and PlayStation's website.
