PS5 Pro launched in select markets with over 50 enhanced games confirmed
Sony launched the PlayStation 5 Pro, an upgraded version of its popular home console, in select markets on Thursday. Announced in September, the PS5 Pro comes with an upgraded GPU, advanced ray-tracing features, AI upscaling technology for better image quality, and double the storage capacity of the PS5. However, Sony’s “most advanced and innovative console hardware yet” doesn’t come with a disc drive as standard. Ahead of the console’s release, Sony also shared a list of more than 50 games enhanced for the PS5 Pro that will be available at launch.
PS5 Pro price, availability
The PS5 Pro has a suggested retail price of $699.99 (approximately Rs. 58,750). In the UK the console costs £699.99 GBP, while in the EU and Japan it costs €799.99 EUR and ¥119,980 JPY (including tax) respectively. Customers can separately purchase an attachable disk drive for $79.9 and a vertical stand for $29.99.
The PS5 Pro is available now in select markets and can be purchased from participating retailers, or directly from PlayStation at direct.playstation.com. The console is available in the standard two-tone black and white colorway or in a limited edition gray color option as part of PlayStation’s 30th Anniversary Limited Edition Bundle.
Sony has not yet announced a launch date for the PS5 Pro in India.
PS5 Pro specs, features
The PS5 Pro comes with a few hardware upgrades over the PS5, with the console promising better frame rates and higher resolution. The console’s official specs have now been revealed. It comes with the same AMD Ryzen Zen 2 CPU as the PS5, but has improved RDNA graphics with 16.7 teraflops of GPU compute performance.
The console comes with 16 GB of GDDR6 memory and another 2 GB of DDR5 RAM for system tasks. The PS5 Pro includes a custom 2TB SSD, doubling the storage space of the standard PS5.
In terms of features, the PS5 Pro has advanced ray-tracing capabilities that enable more accurate and realistic lighting and reflections in games. The console also introduces Sony’s new AI upscaling feature called PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution (PSSR), which uses machine learning-based technology for better picture quality.
