I know OP is tripping but I can see Sony putting out a $700 remake/remaster machine…

MS should be embarrassed that they are still pushing Halo as their main game 20+ years later. Like I keep saying; no innovation from MS or Sony. At least Nintendo will put a new spin on Mario 100 times and not just the same game with updated graphics

Sony PlayStation 5 Pro Targetting Late 2023-2024 Launch, Pricing at Around $600-$700 Premium 8K Gaming Segment

Sony PlayStation 5 Pro Targetting Late 2023-2024 Launch, Pricing at Around $600-$700 Premium 8K Gaming Segment
By Hassan Mujtaba

Sony is also planning to refresh its own PlayStation 5 console with a Pro variant that will tackle Microsoft's Xbox Series X/S refresh planned sometime around late 2023-2024. The new console would pack a new AMD SOC featuring higher performance but being a Pro console, Sony is very likely to position it at the premium 4K/8K gaming segment.

Sony's PlayStation 5 Pro Rumored For Late 2023-2024 With Pricing Up To $700 US, Aiming Premium 4K/8K Gaming Segment
The leak starts off by stating a few gaming announcements that we can expect at Sony's PlayStation showcase event this week. The following titles may or may not be present during the showcase and are as follows:



    • God of War (Game Teaser/Trailer)
    • Gran Turismo (Gameplay Trailer)
    • Stray (Game Trailer)
    • Call of Duty: Vanguard (New Gameplay)
    • TLOU: Factions (Rumor)
Tom (MLID) states that these are just a few titles that he was able to confirm from his sources and that there are a few surprises reveals expected too. But the main leak covers the PlayStation 5 Pro which may definitely not be a part of the Showcase event this year since the console is still far from launch. It is stated that Sony is indeed working on the PlayStation 5 Pro which would be a higher & more premium segmented variant of the existing console. Though no specifications were stated, it looks like the console will offer a decent boost in performance, enough to entice those who waited for a proper generational upgrade over their PS4 Pro or older PS4 to make the jump.


The Sony PlayStation 5 Pro console is expected to launch in late 2023-2024 and will feature a price of around $600-$700 US which is around 75% higher than the base variant of the PlayStation 5. The original PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 4 Pro base variants were priced at $399 US while the Slim PS4 retailed for $299 US. The increase in price is likely due to increasing manufacturing cost & what the company learned from its PlayStation 4 Pro launch. To make a profit off the Pro, Sony will have to sell the console at a higher price to get its return otherwise every unit they would sell would be at a loss if the company plans to shift to a brand new SOC which seems to be the case.

Now, this is where the speculation part begins, it is being stated that the Sony PlayStation 5 Pro may get a new AMD APU featuring brand new CPU/GPU IPs. Microsoft plans to refresh its Xbox Series S and X on 6nm, allegedly, while Sony may be going the 5nm route with a new RDNA and Zen-based architecture.

If that's the case, then MLID speculates the TDP for the console to break past 300W which makes it a very expensive console to design and manufacture. Also, in gaming performance, the console might be utilizing AMD's FSR (FiedelityFX Super Resolution) technology and market itself as a 4K/8K premium gaming console. Well, that's about it as far as this rumor is concerned, do stick around with us during the PlayStation Showcase this week!

If those games end up being shown at the playstation event then this leak is probably true

3 years after launch isn't that crazy

I doubt it though, next year Its PSVR2 year and i doubt sony is launching more upgraded hardware the year after. I’d say 2023 is the year they announce the slim for that holiday and pro for next year

And there is no way anyone on this earth besides the engineers at sony know for sure when a pro model is gonna drop

Updated hardware would probably help give a smoother experience in VR especially if it's gonna be rendered in 4k.
The thing that gets me though is that the article said 8k gaming
That thing isn't gonna be able to do 8k gaming unless it's upscaled and 30 fps
