According to a report by Insider Gaming based on undisclosed sources, Sony is working on a new version of the PlayStation 5 console called PS5 Pro. The same news also says that Sony plans to launch the PS5 Pro model in late 2024.
The news doesn’t include too many details about what hardware upgrades could be on the PS5 Pro. Based solely on a patent filed by Sony’s Mark Cerny, it claims to be able to provide games with improvements in ray tracing effects.
Of course, this claim has a history. After releasing the PS4 in 2013, Sony had launched the PS4 Pro console in 2016. It included a more powerful processor and GPU that increased the game resolution support from 1080p to 4K with HDR. It also had a larger hard drive.
Inside Gaming also claims, again through anonymous sources, that Sony will release a new version of its current PS5 console in late 2023 with a removable disk drive.
PlayStation 6 is also mentioned in the news. If we look at what has been written, we can say that the real next-generation PlayStation will not be released until 2028 at the earliest.
