Debut expected in 2024
Sony is currently preparing an update to its line of game consoles. According to recent data, the new Sony PlayStation 5 Pro model will be twice as powerful as the current PS5 versions.
The information was shared by the network informant Zuby_Tech, who recently published the first live photos and videos of the PlayStation Project Q portable console , as well as details about the updated PlayStation 5, which is expected in the fall. Now, the same source has shared a comparison list of PS5 and PS5 Pro specs and noted that performance can go up to 23+ TFLOPs, while a modern set-top box can handle 10 TFLOPs. However, other forecasts, not so optimistic, were put forward earlier . Based on the statement about the presence of 60 CU units in the GPU, which is more like the truth, then the performance will be noticeably lower. So it’s worth approaching new information with a healthy dose of skepticism.
Sony PlayStation 5 Pro will double the performance of PlayStation 5 for the same price
The same source notes that the cost of the PlayStation 5 Pro may be much lower than previously expected – not $ 599, but only $ 499. This corresponds to the price of the PlayStation 5 at the start of sales. In principle, a similar scheme was used by Sony when releasing the PS4 Pro in 2016, when the console debuted at a price of $ 399, the same price was for the PS4 at the start of sales in 2013. However, according to the source, this is the “minimum” threshold that is possible for the PlayStation 5 Pro. Thus, a higher cost is not excluded.
The official release of the Sony PlayStation 5 Pro is expected in November 2024.
