Sony has announced a 9-minute presentation for the PS5, amidst reports that the company is set to officially unveil the PS5 Pro.
Several fans have spotted the design in the recent logo, which matches an alleged description of the long-rumored console.
The upgraded console reportedly has three black stripes on its outer plate. It's also slightly thicker than the PS5 Slim.
That's as per journalist Jeff Grubb, though whether the PS5 Pro will be announced at the State of Play presentation is unclear.
Talk of the long-rumoured mid-gen console upgrade was widespread at Gamescom 2024, it's been claimed in multiple reports.
Sony are yet to officially confirm PlayStation 5 Pro’s existence.
Leaks have insisted that a PlayStation 5 Pro will launch sometime later this year, though Sony has yet to officially announce the console.
Devkits of the upcoming enhanced console reportedly went out this spring, with certification applications allegedly set to be filed later this month.
Here are 30 potential announcements to look forward to in the coming weeks, from long-awaited remakes and sequels to brand-new titles.
If the PS5 Pro leaks are accurate, the eventual PS6 is slated to be one powerful console. But if modern GPUs still lag behind true photorealism, can the PS6 get there?
Sony is also allegedly encouraging implementing ray tracing more, with developers having access to 1.2 GB of additional system memory.
Sony allegedly also wants PS5 Pro Enhanced titles to offer a mode that combines PSSR-upscaled 4K resolution, 60 FPS performance, and ray tracing.
"Developers didn’t feel they needed it, at least the ones I spoke to," says GamesIndustry.biz founder Christopher Dring.
Sony has yet to comment on the leaked specifications, much less the existence of the console, as it reportedly targets a Fall/Holiday 2024 launch.
The rumored PS5 Pro can deliver 4K resolutions with SDK 9.00, though it's unconfirmed whether it can go higher with PSSR.
The console reportedly features 30 WGPs running specialized BVH8 traversal shaders over the PS5's 18 WGPs running BVH4 traversal shaders.
The rumoured console offers 28 percent higher bandwidth memory, while the CPU can perform at 3.85 GHz with the new mode.
The rumoured mid-gen refresh of Sony's current-gen console will launch in Holiday 2024, it's been claimed.
Journalist Jeff Grubb has corroborated recently leaked details on the rumoured PlayStation 5 Pro, and shared more new ones on top.
PS5 Pro devkits are reported to have been sent out to third-party studios, which means that the specs are likely to leak some time this month.
