As we warned a few months ago, with the confirmation and launch of the PlayStation 5 Slim in 2023, all the rumors pointing to a PlayStation 5 Pro in 2024 gained much more strength. After all, the vast majority of sources were exactly the same.
Having said all this, although I personally think it is a mistake to launch a Pro version of a console that has only just started selling without limitations, everything indicates that we will see the arrival of the PS5 Pro in September, that is, in just a little more than a year. 8~9 months, with some extremely interesting improvements on the graphics processing side.

Therefore, the PlayStation 5 Pro (PS5 Pro) is real, and is currently reaching the final stages of development, to then be mass-produced on Sony and its partners’ production lines.
What will change?
We will see improvements in all areas of the PS5’s base hardware, but the update will be superior in some more specific and more important components for Sony’s objective for this generation.
In other words, the PS5 Pro will maintain the same 8 Zen 2 cores on the processor side, now with higher frequencies, while investing more in the GPU part, with greater rasterization capacity, and also greater Ray-ray capacity. Real-time tracing.
In fact, on the GPU we will see a very interesting update, with the architecture taking the leap to AMD’s RDNA 3. But it’s a special RDNA 3! Since we will also have the opportunity to see some of the improvements of the current RDNA 4 architecture present in the Radeon RX 7000 graphics cards available in the computer world.
